Providing for Our Parks
In a little more than 30 years, Carmel Clay Parks & Recreation has transformed the landscape of our community.
Our vibrant, award-winning parks have consistently been named one of the reasons why Carmel is nationally recognized as a desirable place to live.
The parks belong to and benefit all of us, yet they must compete with other deserving projects in the annual city and township budgets. The mission of the Carmel Clay Parks Foundation is to enhance the recreational and cultural life of the community by supporting Carmel Clay Parks & Recreation with projects not funded through taxpayer dollars.
