Harper Community Park
Welcome to our website. The Harper Community Park was established in 1946 and has been serving the Harper community for about 64 years. Our organization was founded with the intention to serve the community and provide a space that the town and area ranchers could meet for special events, take part in specific pastimes, raise money for special needs or organizations, or just relax and enjoy the beauty of a quiet neighborhood with a picnic. The Park Board was created to govern the association, but involvement from everyone was explicit. We do ask that you support our organization through regular participation in activities.
2010 Park Board Members: Damon and Beverly Clark, Jarin Arhelger, Pam Fogle, Grant Meyers, Jim and Jalyn Sivells.
