A friends group is a group of volunteers who work together to support the park in many ways. Friends groups help the park by members volunteering their time, skills, equipment and fundraising abilities. Members have the opportunity to share their time and talents with others while supporting the park. Members come from all walks of life and may be active both physically and financially. Members can be as active as their schedules permit; there are no time requirements of members.
The Friends of GTSP was formed in August of 2004 by a group of individuals who are interested in the development of the new park. These friends have paved the way for more individuals to follow to help the park grow and take shape. Please help out the park by volunteering and becoming a Friend.
