Telegraph Picnic Area is nestled under the trees of the forest and is a great place for small and large groups to enjoy a picnic or plan a gathering. The picnic area has tables, grills, and fire rings. Picnic areas are available on a first come, first served basis
Completed in May 2002, the Telegraph Road Picnic Pavilion is a thirty foot by twenty foot roof-covered porous brick pad with twelve picnic tables (six of them wheelchair accessible), six cooking grills and electric outlets. A few child-size tables are staged nearby. The structure is adjacent to a comfort station with food-service sinks and flush toilets. Wheelchair access to the pavilion is simple from one of the area's 73 parking spaces. There are approximately twenty additional picnic tables scattered throughout the adjoining woods of Telegraph Road Picnic Area. Most of the tables have a grill nearby. A short path leads to spacious William's Ballfield (available first come, first served), which is suitable for softball, volleyball, frisbee and other activities. Nearby, the Crossing trail leads deeper into the forest.
