Season of Gratitude at Waterfront Park

A message from our Executive Director, Deborah Bilitski:

Dear Friends of Waterfront Park,

As we enter this season of gratitude, we want to thank you for helping make Waterfront Park a vibrant, welcoming space for our community. This year has been full of milestones: we were named Best Riverwalk in America, celebrated the grand opening of PlayPort, responded to a historic flood, and hosted hundreds of free events that brought our community together. We’re so thankful for all the ways you’ve pitched in, whether through donations, lending a hand with flood cleanup and other efforts, or simply being an active participant in events around the park.

On Giving Tuesday, December 2, we hope you’ll join us in celebrating the spirit of generosity. Your support helps ensure Waterfront Park remains accessible, beautiful, and vibrant for everyone, today and for generations to come.

Keep enjoying the park this season! We look forward to seeing you as we wrap up the year and look ahead to an exciting 2026. Stay tuned to our website and socials for updates, events, and ways to give back this Giving Tuesday.
