Morrow County Park District was formed in 1996. It is funded by many sources including private donations, state and federal funding. The park is currently managed by three volunteer commissioners who are responsible for acquisition, planning, public relations and maintenance. The Park District strives to provide natural areas and green spaces for the general public to enjoy.
The
logo for the park district is an artist’s collage of
various natural features that could be encountered while
visiting the
park system. It depicts towering hardwood and evergreen
trees stretching
to reach a cloud as it floats by. A rich and vibrant
under story of plant life stretches to the horizon. A
clear, bubbling stream
tumbles its way to the sea.
