The park is named in honor of Evelyn M. Schiffler, a former Beaverton civic leader and community advocate.
The property is managed under the Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District (THPRD), one of the largest special-purpose park districts in Oregon.
The park site is situated on land formerly identified as part of the West Slope neighborhood development zone.
The park design focuses on low-impact outdoor recreation, emphasizing neighborhood connectivity over high-intensity athletic fields.
Evelyn M. Schiffler Memorial Park is a 7.5-acre community park maintained by the Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District in Beaverton, Oregon. The site features a diverse range of recreational amenities including a dedicated playground, basketball court, and tennis courts. Pedestrian pathways wind through landscaped green spaces, connecting various sections of the park for walkers and joggers. The park provides several picnic tables and open lawn areas suitable for casual outdoor gatherings. Mature trees provide significant shade canopy throughout the grounds, particularly along the eastern borders. The facility is fully integrated into the local residential neighborhood, prioritizing accessibility and neighborhood-level recreation.
The central paved pathway offers the best vantage point of the park's mature tree line and open lawn during golden hour.
Bring a portable chair if you plan to stay during peak weekend hours, as picnic tables can fill up quickly.
Use the paved walking paths for a flat, accessible route if you are mobility-impaired or using a stroller.
Parking is limited to street side, so consider arriving on foot or by bicycle to avoid congestion.
Do not leave valuables visible in vehicles parked along Erickson Avenue, as street parking is public and unsecured.
