We are delighted to announce the grand opening of Martha's Nature Trail, which took place yesterday. The event was a tremendous success, with many attendees joining in the celebration. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Major Martha Friedmeyer for her generous donation of the land. Her dedication to Antioch Park is unparalleled. Additionally, we express our appreciation to the Missouri Department of Conservation for their partnership and support through the matching grant, as well as their guidance in developing the gardens and path. The trail features rain gardens, butterfly gardens, and a quarter-mile ADA-compliant path that meanders through the pecan grove, complete with benches. Overall, the entire path stretches just over a mile in length.

The Parks Beautification project was designed by Tim and Irene Komer, with funding provided by the Tony Komer Foundation and the Truman Lake Community Foundation. Throughout the spring and summer, Tim and Irene have dedicated their efforts to enhancing the areas surrounding our park signs. Their extensive work in soil preparation, flower planting, watering, w**d removal, and sign revitalization has truly paid off. The Clinton Parks and Recreation Department wishes to extend our gratitude and appreciation to Tim and Irene for undertaking this project and creating beautiful spaces for everyone to enjoy.

This is exciting. Please come out and celebrate the grand opening of our 18 hole Disc Golf Course. Sat the 19th at 10 am

The baskets are up, the concrete is down and the signs are pointing the way. The 'back nine' of the Clinton Disc Golf Course is now complete so a Ribbon Cutting/Grand Opening is up next. You are invited to join The Tony Komer Foundation and the Clinton Tourism Assoc. on Sat. March 19th at 10am in the parking lot of the American Legion building in Artesian Park. Find out about the history of the 'front nine', why a 'back nine' is so important and learn what discs are used and how to use them when you utilize this course. Help us celebrate the completion of this 18-hole disc golf course that we hope will bring people to Clinton and is another activity for our area residents as well. A ‘closest to the hole’ contest will be held with prizes, big and small, to be won.
