Gifts to Park Friends are tax deductible.

The mission of Park Friends, Inc. is to promote interest in the development of Tulsa’s park system and encourage monetary or non-monetary gifts to the parks. We work closely with all park administrators by raising funds and making grants to fund activities that will preserve the natural beauty and historical significance of the entire Tulsa Parks System. We go beyond budgets by providing support to priority projects / activities which ensure that each park is inspiring and beautiful for all current and future generations.

Park Friends, Inc. appropriates donations to the designated County park of your choice. Making a difference for the welfare and health of our entire community is a mission not only shared by us but all of Tulsa and her sister cities. We act as an agent to receive and administer gifts, and if need be, act as the vehicle for translating monetary gifts into the structure desired by donors. Honoring a loved one or friend with a gift to the parks is one way of keeping memories forever eternal.

Remember, as a host, you are responsible for the safety and actions of your guests, not only during your event, but until they are home safely.

ZUmBAZumba is a fusion of Latin music and aerobic fitness that creates a dynamic, exciting and effective workout. A Zumba workout mixes body sculpting and dance derived from meringue, salsa, reggaeton, hip hop, flamenco, cumbia and tango. In a typical class you will target glutes, legs, arms, abdominals and your heart. Zumba classes are easy to follow and are designed to captivate participants of all fitness levels-novice or experienced. So ditch that rusty old workout and join the party… try Zumba.
