Become A Member

Joining the effort is as easy as completing, printing and mailing our online membership form so that they can tell you what’s going on in the city with parks and recreation. The Friends of Des Moines Parks will be sending you a brief quarterly member update on current issues, invite you to an annual picnic, send you a parks information packet and notify you of important issues that would benefit from citizen support.

You’ll reap the rewards of being an active Des Moines Parks and Recreation supporter. A minimum $20 contribution covers the annual membership and the benefits. Mail your check to:

  • Friends of the Des Moines Parks
  • c/o Jane Hein-President
  • 602 Robert D. Ray Dr.
  • Des Moines, 50309


The Des Moines Park and Recreation Foundation, Inc., Friends of Des Moines Parks is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization dedicated to the citizen stewardship of the parks.
