The Columbus Park Foundation understands how difficult 2020 has been for our community, and we are humbled by the support we received in 2020 from each and every community member. You gave our friends, family and neighbors the opportunity to continue to enjoy a healthier lifestyle by supporting Parks and Recreation’s free and low-cost programming, facilities, parks, trails, and playgrounds. Thank you for your generosity!
