Over a hundred years old, the Butler-Perozzi Fountain, the jewel of Lithia Park, is in desperate need of refurbishment. We have secured enough money to pay for half of the project, but we need your help to raise the rest. We are asking the community to donate to save the fountain, if you are able.
Your gift to the Ashland Parks Foundation General Fund allows us to direct resources to where they are needed most, whether it’s maintaining Lithia Park or providing rec program scholarships to kids or ensuring healthy forests that protect against future wildfires. Enjoy year-round recreational programming such as swimming lessons, ice-skating, and more. We hope you’ll support all of our wonderful parks and facilities including hundreds of acres of open space and wild areas with natural creeks and trails. Your donation will help this community stay a great place to visit or call home.
