Friends of Mansfield Parks members are bringing a little extra fun to Friday night events at Geyer Commons this summer with art activities like rock painting and more, while also spreading the word about our organization and how to get involved.

In Spring 2026, The Friends of Mansfield Parks hosted our first scholarship contest, with children from across the city invited to share what the parks mean to them through art and/or essays. Seven children were selected as winners, earning a $50 scholarship to a summer recreation class., with those prizes presented at the May MPFDC board meeting.

Huge thanks to everyone who entered, and especially to the Mansfield Noon Rotary for their financial support to help make the scholarships possible.
