Forest Park is the heart of our region. Supporters are the heart of the Park.
Thank you to everyone for tuning in to KMOV’s A Day 4 Forest Park. Through this communal effort on December 6, we raised over $12,800 to support the year-round care and maintenance of Forest Park. Our team can care for nearly 5,200 square feet of landscape, plant over 37,700 bulbs (like tulips and daffodils) or plant and care for nearly 115 trees thanks to everyone who donated, became a new member or renewed this season. And there is still time to help!
Special thanks to our friends at KMOV for being our year-end media partner and to Enterprise Mobility Foundation for sponsoring our Year-End Membership Drive. New membership gifts of up to $1,000 will be matched dollar-for-dollar through December 31, 2023.
Listen to the StL Bucket List Show podcast to hear our Horticulture Superintendent, Roman Fox, talk about his work in “the most beautiful office in the City.”
