Friends of Mildred Kanipe Memorial Park
P. O. Box 617
Oakland, OR 97462
This park is 1,100 acres of land consisting of forests, creeks, rolling hills, orchards and pastures. Historical structures include a turn-of-the-century schoolhouse, a farmhouse, and outbuildings.
In 2005, due to the financial burden, the Douglas County Commissioners were considering returning the park to the Mildred Kanipe Trust. People organized to help the park remain in the public domain and open to the people, and, The Friends of Mildred Kanipe Memorial Park Association, Inc. (501 c 3, nonprofit tax exempt) was created. We are committed to keep the park as public land for the enjoyment of the people.
