Welcome to the Friends of the Park of Knox Indiana. We are 501(C) 3 Non-Profit Organization set up to support and help meet additional needs of the Knox Park Board.

Our current project is to add an SKATEBOARD PARK to Wythogen Park. We are currently accepting donations for this project. The Skate Park will cost about $50,000 when completed. We have Phase 1 and 2 done. To complete the project will cost about $10,000 for Skate Armor covering.

There have been a number of people offering to help with construction. Right now we are in need of funds and members to help us.




Future projects could be additional lighting, slides, swings, grass and trees.




We meet on the first Monday of each month
at the Knox Girl Scout Cabin at 6 pm. We welcome everyone to stop by.


Our Purposes:

  • To raise the level of community awareness of the Parks of the City of Knox to Starke County & the surrounding counties.
  • To recruit and organize the human resources needed for the tasks for an independent, non-political action committee for the parks' benefit.
  • To identify and prioritize the immediate and long-range needs of the parks.
  • To tap every possible means of financial support for all city parks.
  • to provide for a highly visible, ongoing, tax free depository for gifts for all city parks.
  • To promote the health, recreation and physical education of children and families in the Starke County & Knox community.









Our 3rd year of hosting the Knox Harvest Festival is completed. Thank your for all your support. If you would like to help the Friends of the Park with it's projects, please contact any of the board members.
