Mission

Doctors Park Friends strives to protect, preserve and promote the natural beauties of Doctors Park for the enjoyment of its visitors and the well-being of its bird and wildlife. We seek to raise funds from public and private contributions to enhance the quality and unique features of the park in recognition of the wishes of Dr. Joseph Schneider, the original donor of its land.

Vision: Doctors Park will be a safe, clean and environmentally healthy public park that supports citizen’s recreational activities and its bird and wildlife.
