The 75 acre J.S. Acker Memorial
Park is slated to become one of the City of Prescott's premier open space recreational
opportunities, for residents and visitors alike. The park plan envisions an outdoor
area that is "The Park Different", where the visitor will be encouraged
to do more with less and to appreciate a landscape left alone. Volunteer help
and donations are critical to accomplishing this goal.In-kind volunteer labor will be credited
towards the grant contribution. Several community project work days will be scheduled
in the coming year for completion of trails, work installing the children's area
items, creation of an acknowledgment wall and mural for the an exterior bathroom
wall and building Kiosks. These are just a few projects we can help with and assistance
will be greatly needed.
The Friends are inviting support from our generous residents and business community
for donations of construction materials, services and donations. Memorial and
adoption opportunities are available to acknowledge financial contributions to help
realize the goals of this special green belt project. The Friends of Acker are a
tax-deductible non-profit organization that will be happy to help you choose from
a "Wish List" of needs available. Donations may be mailed to FOJSA, P.O.
Box 3489, Prescott, AZ 86302. All contributions will be generously acknowledged and
creatively incorporated into the project's design.
