Founded in 1921, Summit Metro Parks is the second oldest park district in Ohio. Each year, millions of park-goers visit the 16 parks and more than 150 miles of trails in communities across Summit County. Stop by a nature center, join a naturalist-led program, take a hike, or take part in one of the many activities throughout the area, like archery, paddleboarding, snowshoeing, camping, biking and more.
Summit Metro Parks staff commits to providing beautiful, safe parks for all to enjoy. Each person plays a key role in supporting this mission, including:
- Naturalists, who connect park goers with the wonderful world around them through a variety of programs.
- Conservationists, who study and protect natural and cultural resources across the 16 parks and six conservation areas.
- Maintenance staff, who are critical in keeping the parks safe and clean places to visit.
- Customer service representatives, who answer questions and guide visitors planning their next trip.
