Community Support
Being an active part of our community is part of doing business, that's why we "share the fruit".
We are committed to helping build stronger communities by participating in local initiatives and directly supporting organizations that are working to raise awareness of the importance of physical activity, healthy play and a healthy environment.
Our product support programs are intended to benefit local organizations in and around our parks.
Charity of Choice
Every two years we partner with a regional charity that is actively working to improve access to outdoor activities and the natural environment - especially for children and youth. The selected organization receives $10,000 worth of activity passes, as well as a variety of other support depending on what best fits the organization’s needs. Partner organizations are able to use the passes in a fundraising raffles or auctions, for special activity days, to reward volunteers or donors, for mentoring programs, or in a combination of programs and fundraising.
Congratulations to our current Charity of Choice: Power to Be Adventure Therapy
