City of Washougal celebrates Hamllik Park improvements

The city of Washougal held a ribbon-cutting event on June 11 to celebrate the completion of a series of improvements at Hamllik Park aimed at expanding recreational opportunities, improving accessibility and upgrading sports facilities.

The project included construction of a new multiuse basketball court along with new baseball and softball dugouts; installation of Americans with Disabilities Act-compliant ramps; and improvements to walking paths.

City officials said the upgrades are designed to improve access throughout the park while expanding recreational options for residents. The new court accommodates both basketball and pickleball, one of the nation's fastest-growing sports, while the dugouts enhance facilities for youth and adult sports participants.

"These improvements create more opportunities for residents of all ages to stay active and enjoy Hamllik Park," Washougal Mayor David Stuebe said. "The new court, improved accessibility features and upgraded sports facilities help ensure this community space continues to serve Washougal families for years to come."

The project was funded through the federal Community Development Block Grant program.
