Did You Know?

Wormy Wood
American chestnut used to be one of the dominate species in our forests. In the early 1900s, a fungus nearly wiped out the species. Today, much of its lumber - called wormy chestnut - is harvested from those dying trees.

Mounties
Many years ago, Metro Parks rangers patrolled the parks on horseback.
