Place
to pick up speed:
Lowell
Park toboggan runs
Weather
permitting, the two 350-foot lighted toboggan runs open Dec. 1 at Lowell
Park behind Waukesha North High School.
Snow
is guaranteed during Waukesha’s Janboree, the city’s winter festival
held in late January. If Mother Nature hasn’t made enough of the white
stuff by then, Waukesha Parks and Recreation employees help her out. An
information line updates callers on the snow conditions.
Bring
your own toboggans and pay $4 a day for a chute pass. Or rent one for $5
an hour, which includes the pass.
If
a toboggan’s speed is too intense for you, the park offers a free
sledding hill and an ice skating rink. Warm up with a cup of hot cocoa in
the concession shed. Chutes can be rented from 6:30 to 9 p.m. Saturdays
for private parties.
