WHY SHOULD YOU VISIT ALLEN LOCAL


SUMMARY OF ALLEN LOCAL

Formed in 2002, the Allen Parks Foundation is a charitable organization whose
primary purpose is to further enhance Allen’s great park system and recreation
facilities, expand development of parks and recreational programming, and accept
land bequests and other donations by partnering with the City of Allen, other
governmental partners, local organizations and groups. The Allen Parks
Foundation supports and improves the recreational opportunities in the Park
system which enhances the community and the citizens’ quality of life.

Allen Parks Foundation’s founding project was “kidMania”, the largest
handicap-accessible playground in the State of Texas located in Celebration
Park. A local group of volunteers came together to create the “kidMania” project
and subsequently formed the Allen Parks Foundation in order to plan, fund and
build the playground. The Parks Foundation raised over $150,000 for this project
and also coordinated the community-build aspect of this massive playground.
“kidMania” was the perfect project to start the Parks Foundation and set the
tone for the growth of the organization.

Since that time, the Parks Foundation has raised private funds for a wide
variety of park and recreation projects including additional playground
amenities in various parks, park benches, memorial donations, trail distance
markers and trail wayfinding signs. Another main goal of the Parks Foundation is
to provide ways for directly engaging the citizens of Allen in their parks
system. This goal is currently being accomplished in several ways.  A “Tool
Trailer” was purchased by the Parks Foundation which is loaded with landscape
maintenance tools and can be used by any local organization for the enhancement
of public spaces.  The Parks Foundation also hosts a “rolling” Movie Night in
the Park where a family movie is shown in different neighborhood parks, allowing
the citizens to experience a movie in a way they never have before. In addition,
a “Park Ambassador” program was created by the Parks Foundation whereby citizens
can take an active, knowledgeable role in their parks.

Allen is a city in Collin County in the U.S. state of Texas, and a northern
