Friends of Crystal Parks is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that works to make the City of Crystal an even better place to raise a family or grow a business. Funds raised through Friends of Crystal Parks events improve the City of Crystal's parks; and is fun to be a part of. Plus, more volunteers makes for better events - and better parks! One of their annual contributions is to purchase trees to hand out at the city's annual Arbor Day Event on the first Wednesday in May. Other donations to projects are also made.
Friends of Crystal Parks currently hosts various events each year; including a plant sale the Saturday prior to Memorial Day weekend. Additional fundraising ideas are being sought. The group also provides information on ways to support Crystal's parks at the annual Crystal Frolics Family Festival on the last Saturday of July. The Friends of Crystal Parks Board meets monthly September through May at the Crystal Community Center - all are welcome! To learn more about this group, please visit: www.friendsofcrystalparks.org.
