At Cleveland Metroparks, we take pride in our 18 unique park reservations, each offering its own distinctive natural beauty and recreational opportunities. Our Reservation Enhancement Funds are dedicated to preserving and enriching these valuable spaces, ensuring they continue to provide joy and comfort to visitors of all ages.
Through these dedicated funds, you have the opportunity to support the specific reservation that holds special meaning to you. Your gift will help us continue to provide new opportunities and innovative experiences that will nurture the youngest naturalists and bring children and adults of all ages closer to the wonders of nature. Enhancement Funds help fund improvements throughout the Emerald Necklace; here is just a small sampling of the projects supported by individual Reservation Enhancement Funds:
- Acacia: a new interpretive boardwalk and viewing deck and loop trail (complete)
- Edgewater: New trail linkages between Perkins Beach and the bluffs, new overlooks and terraced staircases, and new fitness circuits (planned)
