The Oshkosh Advisory Park Board meeting held on February 12, 2024, focused on updates regarding facility rentals and community engagement at Lakeshore. The meeting highlighted the increasing demand for rentals at the facility, with officials encouraging interested parties to contact the office directly at 236-5080, as online reservations are not currently available due to the unique nature of the building.

The board discussed the rental fees that were recommended by the board and subsequently approved by the city council. For City of Oshkosh residents, weekday rentals from 10 AM to 10 PM are priced at $25, while weekend and holiday rentals are set at $28.75. Non-residents will pay $28.75 for weekday rentals and $34.25 for weekend and holiday rentals. The pricing structure aims to ensure equitable access to the facility, allowing community members to enjoy waterfront activities that may not be available elsewhere.

The board expressed optimism about the community's response to the facility, anticipating that it will be well-received and widely utilized. The meeting concluded with a positive outlook on the Lakeshore programs and the potential for increased community engagement through these offerings.
