HISTORY

The Tuscarawas County Commissioners officially created the Tuscarawas County Park Department in January of 2004. The Tuscarawas County Park Department is a department of the County and reports directly to the County Commissioners. The legislation created a Tuscarawas County Park Advisory Committee that includes representation from the County Government, the Department of Soil and Water, the Ohio State Extension Office, the Farm Bureau, Trail and Green space organizations, the Convention and Visitors Bureau, the Business Sector, Townships and Municipalities.

MISSION

The Tuscarawas County Park Department seeks to partner with local communities and non-profit organizations to develop a county-wide network of trails and parks, promote agricultural lands and green spaces, stimulate community and economic development and enhance the quality of life for the citizens of Tuscarawas County.”
