The St. Joseph County Parks & Recreation Department continually strives to provide local communities access to well-maintained, safe and Eco-friendly parks as well as fun recreation opportunities. While entry to our parks is currently free for county residents, we are asking for park supporters to consider making a donation of just $35 for continued development and maintenance. Park Patrons will make a significant difference in the options and features we are able to offer visitors and residents of St. Joseph County. Please consider donating today for better parks tomorrow!
