Bench Memorial Program


The Fairfax Parks and Beautification Committee has opportunities for residents, businesses, and organizations to enhance and beautify our parks, trails, fishing ponds, and the Prairie Creek area through the donation of decorative benches. These benches make wonderful memorials. We currently have three different types of benches to choose from.
