About the Park

The sheltered picnic pavilions at Discovery are perfect for hosting birthday parties and showers. Sandy Point’s amphitheater is a great fit for larger events like family reunions, weddings, receptions, or corporate parties. Celebrate with those closest to you while enjoying views of the Boise River.
