Sprague's Pond Park Addition - Wildlife Recreation and Coalition

Our Work / Water Access / Sprague’s Pond Park Addition

Category Overview

Washington is famous for its gorgeous and abundant waterways, from the Salish Sea to the Nisqually River, but many communities lack open public beaches and waterfronts where everyone can enjoy picnicking, swimming, paddling, boating, and angling. Water Access projects fund public shoreline access, boat launches, and fishing docks to create more opportunities for water recreation.

Project Highlights

The City of Lynnwood used this grant to acquire a 1.77-acre property on the eastern shore of Sprague’s Pond, located within the City of Lynnwood in south Snohomish County. The primary recreation opportunity provided by this project is passive recreation including fishing and wildlife viewing.
