Friends of Lakeside Park 2024 Christmas Market

Friends of Lakeside Park 2024 Ornament- NOW Available

Our 2024 Ornament featuring the new pedestrian bridge over the Fond du Lac River!

Our new pedestrian bridge over the Fond du Lac River makes it possible for everyone to access and enjoy ALL of Lakeside Park. A bridge between the two parks was one of the top recommendations in the 2015 Lakeside Park Exploratory Committee recommendations. In 2020 the City Council voted to study putting the bridge in. The 2021 City Council approved the project and bridge construction started in the fall of 2023. The bridge opened in May of 2024.

You can get the ornament for FREE by becoming a member of the Friends of Lakeside Park by clicking HERE or purchase it for $10 by clicking HERE

Lakeside Park is a legacy. It is the backyard for the citizens of Fond du Lac; created, developed, and nurtured over decades of City and volunteer oversight.

We commit to continue that legacy for future generations, with responsible administrative and financial stewardship of the Park, through oversight and partnership with the City and the citizens who use it, love it, maintain it, and find solace within it.
