Description & Notes
Grass Lake is a 16-acre wetland located in the city of Shoreview. It is entirely surrounded by the Grass Lake Nature Preserve and Snail Lake Regional Park, which are owned and operated by the Ramsey County Parks and Recreation Department. The park includes a parking area and trails through the preserve near Grass Lake. While commonly referred to as a lake, Grass Lake is categorized and managed as a wetland. We anticipate a great variety of spring colors in the park!
Registration
Paint-outs are open to all OPM members and their guests. Participants are not required to register, but it's helpful so we can communicate any last minute changes to locations or weather cancellations. Participants may arrive any time during the duration of the paint-out, but keep in mind that painters will migrate to painting locations once the paint-out begins.
