It began with our America the Beautiful being played on the day a victor was declared in the 2020 Presidential election, bringing a 'time to heal' right to Roanoke Park.
Powell Gardens Director of Horticulture Alan Branhagen visited Roanoke Park for one of his informative Tree Walks.
Thanks so much for sharing all your good work in Roanoke Park. It would be so cool to have it a microcosm of nature, free of invasive exotics and the characteristics of its native woodland back for future generations to experience.

Enjoy the park, and stay safe. While Kansas City's mask mandate has been lifted, our area's vaccination rate and the emergence of new variants calls for maintaining caution to reduce transmission. Please enjoy the park responsibly by spreading out. The Westport-Roanoke Community Center is open again with normal hours after its recent construction closure. Please click their link above and call for the latest info. Here are the latest KCMO COVID-19 updates from the city. To avoid damaging trails, check Trail Status before biking or hiking off road. ("Rozarks" = Roanoke Park's 2.5 miles plus Rosedale's 3.5 miles.)
