Roosevelt Park

Since 1919

Roosevelt Park is located east of the intersection of Main Street and Camp Allen Drive next to the St. Mary's River.  It has rivergreenway access and is only a short distance away from Orff Park

History:

The park property was acquired in 1919 and the people in that area at the time desired the park be called Theodore Roosevelt Park.  A movement was then started to secure funds from which to erect within the park a memorial to Mr. Roosevelt who was our 26th President and has been ranked by scholars as one of the greatest US Presidents.
