Adopt-A-Park

When you commit to the Canton Parks & Recreation Adopt-a-Park program, not only are you committing to beautifying a park but you are allowing your employees and members get involved in a project that contributes to the quality of life in our community.

Several of our most dedicated volunteer groups have committed to adopting a park property. Park adoption can consist of a variety of responsibilities based on the skills, abilities, and availability of a group. 

Common activities are painting, weeding, mulching, landscaping and litter control. Participants receive recognition in the form of a park sign and one free rental of the park property each year.

PARTICIPATING BUSINESSES & ORGANIZATIONS

We can’t take all the credit for Canton Parks! It is because of these organizations and their volunteers that actively participate in the clean-up and beautification of the parks.
