About Me

Name:

Rotary Park is a county-owned natural park in Clarksville, Montgomery County, Tennessee. It consists of two adjoining tracts of land that make up about 95 acres of mostly undeveloped, wooded land. There is one park entrance/exit that is paved and runs to the back of the park. There are three pavilions along the roadway with the largest being at the road's end. Rotary Park has an extensive trail network and is open to hikers and bikers. The new push for extensive trail work is necessary because most trails were improperly built by ATVs and motorcycles. Motorized vehicles are now banned from the park. Furthermore, the trails are showing signs of serious erosion. Most recently, a large amount of sustainable trail located outside of the park's boundary has been taken by development. The Friends of Rotary Park is dedicated to restoring and improving the park. Those interested in joining Friends of Rotary Park can do so by contacting Chris Clark at 931-801-3898. Dues are $25.00 for a family membership.

Workday this Saturday

Hello Friends:

I hope everyone is well. This is a reminder that there is a workday at Rotary Park this Saturday. We will meet at 8:00 a.m. in the parking lot near Pavilion III. All of the pavilions will be in use and that is why we will meet in the parking lot. We will be working to complete the medium loop and working in the area stretching from behind the playground to behind Pavilion III. Be sure to bring gloves, rakes, bow saws, loppers, etc. Don't forget water, water, and water. You also may want to bring bug repellant and anti-poison ivy cream if you have any (if it even exists).

I look forward to seeing everyone there.

Chris
