Valparaiso Park Foundation
Be a Friend of the Park...
Our city parks
grow one friend at a time, and the key to that community partnership
is the Valparaiso Parks Foundation. Since the inception of the Foundation, many
accomplishments have been reached, including the development of such park opportunities
as the Lakewood Link, ValPlayso, Creekside, Foundation Meadows, and the Service
Memorial. Most recently the Foundation helped the Parks Department add an additional
68 acres to its inventory by securing monetary pledges and donations to purchase
the Vitoux property adjacent to Creekside Park.
However, the greatest accomplishment has been the continuous support and involvement
of individuals and corporations in our community. No matter how big or small, much
is possible with every donation. The Friends of the Parks is here to help envision
the possibilities. Contact the Parks Foundation to learn about current projects,
fundraisers, and legacy gifts. Valparaiso Parks would love to count on your support...after
all, that's what friends are for!
