Savikko Park Performance Pavillion

The Pioneer Pavillion plaque will be unveiled at the May 14th, 2011 Arbor Day Celebration. Join us for fun, a community picnic, and band concert celebrating the completion of the Pioneer Pavillion and Arbor Day at 12:00 noon!

The Douglas 4th of July Committee recently completed an exciting community project:  A Performance Pavilion at Savikko Park, Douglas. 

The pavillion provides a covered, open space for music, dance, speaking, static displays and other performances during holidays and other special events. It also serves as an additional covered picnic shelter when not used for performances and other official events.

The squared log structure was under construction April 2009 to Fall 2010. It is similar in style to the current log picnic shelter and the Yakutat US Forest Service performance pavilion as designed by Jenson, Yorba and Lott, Inc.

The logs were supplied by Icy Straits Logging. CBJ Parks and Recreation designated a foot pad location in the 2nd ball field for the pavilion.

Donations of money and time were given by: The Pioneers of Alaska, Holland-American, Douglas Advisory Committee, Gold Rush Days, Douglas 4th of July Committee, The Juneau Steam Ship Co., AGGPRO, Alaska Stone & Concrete Inc., Chatham Electric Inc., Channel Construction Inc., North Pacific Erectors, Silver Bow Construction, Tyler Rental Inc., U.S. Coast Guard, Douglas Volunteer Fire Fighters, and The City & Borough of Juneau.

The pavillion is also a welcome replacement for the "bandstand" of two open shipping container vans provided by the committee for past Independence celebrations.
