Helping out your Preservation Parks...
















 

Skunk Cabbage


Our very first blooming “wildflower” produces enough heat to melt snow and raise its internal temperature to anywhere from 59 degrees to 95 degrees Fahrenheit. It’s warm and toasty inside the smelly skunk cabbage!

Golden Marathon
Winter 2010
 

It may be cold outside, but it’s still a great time for walking in the parks!

A project of Preservation Parks of Delaware County and Senior Citizens Inc.

the Golden Marathon is a series of hikes – each about two miles – that add up to at least a 26.2-mile marathon at the end of three months.

The winter walks take place every Monday at 1:30 p.m. and are held in Preservation Parks' preserves and other area locations. Participants can join at any time.

Note: If the temperature is lower than 35 degrees Fahrenheit, walkers will meet at the Food Court at Polaris Fashion Place, 1500 Polaris Parkway, Columbus
.
Participants can join at any time.

With the 10-year replacement levy recently approved by voters, Preservation Parks of Delaware County is poised to expand parks and facilities, develop more nature education programs and preserve more wildlife habitat. In addition, to get the most return on the tax revenue, we will continue to seek outside funding from grants and contributions that will allow us to do even more.

Your gift is very important to us. Whether you decide on a financial donation to assist in the development of the Amy Clark/Bader Bird Sanctuary, now under development in Deer Haven Preserve, or a donation toward a park improvement, your help is sincerely appreciated.
