The Friends of the Park Association of Knox, Indiana is a 501(C) 3 Non-Profit Organization set up to support and help meet additional needs of the Knox Parks.

 

Our current project is to finish the  Skateboard and Bike Park at Wythogan Park. We are currently accepting donations to help finish this project. The Park will cost about $7,000 to complete. We have Phase 1 and 2 done. The final phase to to complete the Skatelite.

 

Future projects could include additional lighting, slides, swings, grass and trees. We have discussed a gazebo or a band shell if funds and interest is available.
