A gentle reminder regarding the use of Mindowaskin Park for Photography, Weddings and more

The Park Property is not available for rental per se. Permits to use areas of Town Property for photography (and other purposes like ceremonies, etc.) in Mindowaskin Park are required and available through the Westfield Recreation Department. The WRD can be contacted during business hours at 908-789-4080 for more information regarding cost and availability of selected dates/areas.

This property is very popular with brides, families, Scouts, film crews and photographers alike. Keep in mind that it is often reserved months in advance with the WRD. It is often best to have the photographer apply for the permit as a certificate of insurance is usually required. Please also be aware that there is very limited parking (no commercial vehicles allowed), no vehicles allowed off the street area without specific permission, no bathrooms available, no open flames allowed, no picnic grounds available and no ball playing is allowed - by ordinance.

Anyone wishing to hold a class, event or conduct any kind of business (even photography) must receive permission (usually via a permit) from the Town of Westfield. A bond or proof of insurance may be required along with an assigned fee.
