About the Friends
A community-run nonprofit for the parks we all share.
Our Mission
A Friend of Hilton-Parma Parks & Recreation will engage the public to advocate for and advance the preservation, conservation, improvement and development of the Hilton-Parma Parks & Recreation system to enhance the community's well-being and enjoyment of recreational programs, services, and facilities.
The Friends of Hilton-Parma Parks and Recreation is an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization made up of neighbors who love this town. We work hand in hand with the Hilton-Parma Parks and Recreation Department to raise funds, run community events, and champion the programs and facilities that make our parks a gathering place for every generation.
We're not a replacement for public funding — we're the extra push that turns a good idea into a new bench, a Halloween tradition, or a summer program a kid remembers for life.
Leadership
Meet the board.
Our all-volunteer board meets monthly to review ideas, plan fundraisers, and keep our commitments to the department and the community.
