Bay Beach considering adding... a beach

Posted | Contributed by Jeff

The Green Bay/Brown County Professional Football Stadium District board approved $120,000 to help fund a study to find out if it’s feasible to bring swimming back to Bay Beach. The city is working with two local engineering firms on this project.

Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.

IMO, They do need a beach.

And a flashy flat ride with a big lighting package. Up against the water, it would be beautiful...and attract more guests...

They need a Giga.

But seriously, I had no idea the park was without a (current) beach.. I always assumed they had one.

The park is so great. A beach area would be really great.

I don't know much about Bay Beach, but I see the money was allotted by a Pro Football Stadium District entity. How close is this place to Lambeau Field?


The amusement park rises bold and stark..kids are huddled on the beach in a mist

We drove over to Lambeau in under 15 minutes. Had some cheese curds and burgers at a bar right next door to the stadium. Vince Lombardi would have been proud...

120K for a study to investigate the prospect of a swimming beach seems a little steep to me...

Not really... I worked for a city and you'd be surprised what a traffic study costs. The environmental assessments were usually far more.

The Lambaeu Stadium District is a completely different thing than Bay Beach. The stadium is actually in Ashwabanon, and not Green Bay. They are at least five miles apart if not more. I think the beach would be a really good idea for this park as it is mostly a picnic park for families that just happens to have rides. Not that I would swim in Green Bay. That water is way too cold for me, even at the height of summer. :)


Certain victory.
