Biggest Little Treasure Hunt

On August 5th, Truckee Meadows Parks Foundation transformed Idlewild Park into a treasure hunting haven. Over 350 treasure hunters on 78 teams registered and participated in our hunt, and over 600 festival goers stopped by the vendor village, the craft beer garden, and enjoyed fantastic music by the Sierra Sweethearts. 

 

Without our hardworking volunteers and our generous sponsors including Whitney Peak Hotel, NV Energy, Break Through Reno, Truckee Meadows Bicycle Alliance, and the City of Reno, none of this would have been possible. We look forward to raising even more citizens' awareness and appreciation of our parks next year!

TMPF TALKS: 

Truckee Meadows History & Ethnobotany

Join us on Monday, August 14th at the California Building in Idlewild Park for our next TMPF Talks.

Biggest Little Dog Park

 

Truckee Meadows Parks Foundation is partnering with the Biggest Little Dog Park Coalition and the City of Reno to help revitalize the Re-trac in downtown Reno. The City has kindly budgeted $75,000 to this park, but we still need to raise $125,000 to make this park a reality. Please consider making a donation to this grassroots effort by visiting our Biggest Little Dog Park website.
