500 New Ballwin Road Map
The property now known as Ferris Park was given to the City by the State of Missouri, to be used solely for park and recreation purposes. It was developed at a cost of $350,000.00 and includes a soccer field, playground, comfort station, nature trails, and a pavilion with a very unique picnic opportunity. With financial assistance from the local Lions Club, city crews constructed the gothic arch pavilion on a cedar deck some 15 feet above the forest floor. A "Branch Out Missouri Grant" from the Missouri Department of Conservation has provided for the planting of 250 trees in the park. These same funds have been used to plant over 500 trees total in Ballwin parks over the past several years.

The Parks and Recreation Department takes reservations for pavilions beginning the first working day of the year. Reservations must be made in person at The Pointe. Proof of residency is required to receive the Ballwin Resident Rate.
