The Ohio Environmental Council (OEC) Action Fund today announced its endorsement of the Darke County Park Districts’ levy campaign.
“We applaud Darke County Parks’ efforts to increase public access and acreage of quality natural space for its residents,” said Pete Bucher, Interim Director of the Ohio Environmental Council Action Fund. “We urge all Darke County Residents to vote in favor of the park levy to provide access to Ohio’s vibrant natural landscapes and essential programming for the community.”
The Darke County Park District acquires and preserves land areas possessing special natural and historical features and to manage and maintain these resources for the benefit of its residents through appropriate educational and passive recreational programs and activities. The park district’s work to preserve the natural habitats and cultural features is integral to the community.
