Water Works Park
Ira Township Waterworks Park is located at 8375 Waterworks Drive.
Park is open Dawn to Dusk!
Historically the site of the original water tower. Since 1996, the township has worked to remediate the property with various improvements throughout the years. The park has also benefited from Eagle Scout projects: Gazebo, Benches, Flag Pole and Safety Kiosks, completed on the site. Today, Waterworks Park is a testament to the people of Ira Township.
Ira Township Waterworks Park has recently added Accessible Kayak Launch, Parking and Path, made possible with Grants from Ralph Wilson Legacy Foundation, St. Clair County Parks, Community Foundation of St Clair County Family Fund and St Clair County EDA
Ira Township Parks and Recreation allows rentals for the Large Pavilion in the Municipal Park. This is a great area to host a Birthday Party, Family Reunion or Picnic Meeting! Interested persons will fill out a Rental Application and sign a Park Use Agreement at time of reservation. The Park itself will remain open to the public.
