Inspiring generations to connect with our Parks: Together, the Valpo Parks Foundation and the Valpo Parks Department work to develop a park system that provides a robust variety of healthy lifestyle choices for the residents of our community. The success of the Valpo Parks has been made possible by a rich history of public and private partnerships that provide park land and recreational opportunities for all ages.
