Boyse Park is a 9-acre neighborhood park with a pump track located off of N. 32nd Avenue that sits alongside a tributary of Gee Creek. The park also includes informal foot and mountain bike trails.

Project Background

The City of Ridgefield purchased the park land in 2020 and 2021. In order to gauge community needs and wants for the land, the City collected public input from our community stakeholders via a community survey from August 5 to September 2, 2022.

The feedback collected in this initial survey was used to develop a Master Plan concept which was presented to the Parks Board for feedback. Additional community feedback on the Master Plan concept was collected from March to June 2023. Some of the amenities included in the initial Master Plan were: picnic areas, pickleball courts, a pump track along with restrooms and off-street parking. The concept Master Plan was presented to City Council on Thursday, April 13, 2023. Council requested revisions and continuing to gather public input on the draft.

On June 8th, 2023, Council was presented with a revised draft Master Plan. Some key changes included moving the picnic areas closer to the parking lot and connecting loops and trails to other regional trails. After reviewing the revised concept and the community input collected via survey, City Council approved the revised Master Plan with one change - removing the pickleball courts from the conceptual design. The approved design concept includes a parking area, restroom, trail connections, pump and jump tracks, picnic areas, landscaping and street improvements.

Phase 1 construction, which included a pump track, parking lot and park fencing, was completed in early October 2025. Some additional features will be added during winter 2025-2026.

Future phases are anticipated to include restrooms, pump track expansion, passive recreational area, covered picnic shelter, and pedestrian trail connection to the creek. Design and construction of future phases is contingent on funding.

A special thank-you to the Boyse family, who sold their land to the City so it could become a public park for all to enjoy.
