What the Perimeter Benches Mean to Me

A bench is a wonderful way to memorialize or honor a loved one, or share as a meaningful gift for a birthday, anniversary, new baby, or graduation. In recognition of contributions to the fund, the Conservancy will install a personalized plaque on a Park bench of the donor's choosing. Benches may be endowed for $10,000.
Join together with friends or family to support the Park with our BenchMark program. With the use of this group fundraising tool, you and your loved ones can raise funds for your shared 843-acre backyard.
