We Need YOUR Help!!

We are looking for old pictures of the Knox Park!! Have you got pictures of yourself as a kid playing baseball? Maybe a family picnic from the 50's? We know that the Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts had building in Wythogan Park and that there was a house on the east side of the park. If you have some, please get in touch we us. We would love to make copies.

Welcome to the Friends of the Park of Knox Indiana. We are 501(C) 3 Non-Profit Organization set up to support and help meet additional needs of the Knox Park Board.

Our current project is to add an SKATEBOARD PARK to Wythogen Park. We are currently accepting donations for this project. The Skate Park will cost about $20,000. to complete. We have Phase 1 done which includes a center unit, spine and fence.

There have been a number of people offering to help with construction. Right now we are in need of funds and members to help us.

Future projects could be additional lighting, slides, swings, grass and trees.

We meet on the first Monday of each month
at the Knox Girl Scout Cabin at 6 pm. We welcome everyone to stop by.
