The PARC’S Foundation is a non-profit organization that supports the parks, trails, natural lands and recreational facilities of Seminole County, Florida. It was created by citizens to provide a vessel for independent support and philanthropy to enhance and endow the existence of these facilities that do so much to make Seminole County a great place to live, work, visit and play.
The PARC’S Foundation seeks involvement from interested persons who want to support, sustain and enhance these special and precious public assets with their time or treasurer. These are just some of the things that we do:
- Provide funds to provide deserving young people the opportunity to volunteer time in many of the programs offered by Seminole County’s Leisure Services Department.
- Improve, enhance and endow the many facilities that comprise the physical assets of the parks, trails, natural lands and recreational and sports facilities of Seminole County.
- Offer individuals and groups the opportunity to memorialize a special person or group through a carefully chosen memorial tree or bench located within certain Seminole County parks, trails, natural lands and recreational sports facilities.
Our new passion project is to create an all-inclusive, multi-generational playground for families to play together. Our vision is to create the best park in Florida and the Southeast right here in our backyard of Seminole County at the old Rolling Hills Golf Course. As we are proud of our home county, we are delighted to be working on something that will really make Seminole County the leader in inclusive recreation.
Seminole County is Central Florida’s “Natural Choice.” It’s not just a motto, brand or slogan. It’s a proud tradition of those who live here; and infuses the imagination of those who play or visit this wonderful place. Seminole County is the natural choice for anyone who wants to live, work. play or visit in Central Florida. That is why a number of residents have formed the PARC’S Foundation: to endow and enhance the wonderful parks, natural lands, trails and sports and recreational facilities that enhance the quality of life for all and make this place so special in Central Florida.
Seminole County is the third smallest county in the State of Florida in land area, yet it has over 24 active and passive parks, over 40 miles of paved trails, 8 wilderness areas encompassing over 6,600 acres and some of the best sports destination venues in the nation.
You can paddle on the wild and scenic Wekiva River, compete at the Boombah Sports Complexes, play tennis or golf, hike in the Geneva Wilderness Area, or bike safely for many miles along verdant paved trails; and much more. All of which makes this a very magical place, where we don’t have to make believe. It’s all real, it’s close, and it’s mostly free!
