Magnolia Park's Eco-Education Center Receives NACPRO Award

Congratulations to Orange County Government Parks and Recreations for receiving the 2023 National Association of County Park and Recreation Officials Facility Award (NACPRO) for Magnolia Park's Eco-Education Center!

Opened in August 2022, Magnolia Park now has a state-of-the-art Eco-Education Center with a park office, reception area, and an interactive display room that includes audio-visual learning centers and eco-related displays.

The Eco-Education Center grounds also have new eco-friendly pollinator gardens.

The park also features a secured, inclusive playground, new paved walkways, new pavilions, a new boardwalk, fishing pier, and floating docks for use by all on Lake Apopka. 

For the convenience of the park attendees and cyclists, along the newly expanded bicycle trailhead is a new men’s and women’s restroom facility. The renovation not only enhances the existing amenities in the park but added several new ones to make the park a real destination for learning, sport, and entertainment for the entire community.
