Donor Opportunities

Urbandale Parks & Recreation has an overarching vision for the park and arboretum, and has created a Master Plan to guide strategic improvements for the next 20 years. The plan details different experience areas for the park that highlight the importance of environmental stewardship, creating a variety of outdoor learning spaces for people of all ages, and paying homage to the legacy of Jackaline Baldwin Dunlap and Paul Dunlap – who donated the park and arboretum to the City of Urbandale.

A donor wall is featured at the main park entrance off Patricia Drive that draws inspiration from a stewardship and prairie nature theme, recognizing donors and their continual support for the park and arboretum.  For information on Donor Opportunities, please click on the document at the top of this page.
