The Town of Owego Parks Department has adopted a Carry In – Carry Out Trash Program. Trash receptacles will no longer be available for use by the general public. Visitors to any Town of Owego park are asked to “carry out” any trash they “carry in”. This approach will help reduce operating costs, improve the appearance of the parks, and help reduce pest related issues such as bees, skunks, and other animals. Please help in keeping your parks clean and safe!

We are pleased to announce the opening of the Rebecca Weitsman Memorial Dog Park located at Hickories Park. It is open from 7:00AM to Dusk. Please observe the posted Rules and Regulations on the bottom of this page.

Concerts in the Park: Starting July 3th, 2024

Every Wednesday at Hickories Park.

Held by: Tioga Arts Council
