After the county constructed a new clubhouse in the 1990s, local businessman Frank Myers led a restoration effort that established the Cascades Park Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to preserving the building for future use. Three indoor spaces accommodate events from 30 to 250 guests. The Myers Room seats up to 250 guests and features panoramic park views through windows on three sides, with an optional dance floor available for events up to 175 guests.
