About Us

   Friends of Wilmington Parks (FOWP) is a “grass roots” non-profit group of over 500 members founded in 1991 (See History). We are actively involved with the State of Delaware Division of Parks & Recreation and The City of Wilmington in the preservation and maintenance of the Wilmington State Parks. FOWP is an active 501(c)(3) organization with over 25 board members and staff.

Currently we are:

1) Coordinating the reconstruction of the Sugar Bowl Observatory overlooking Brandywine Park.

2) Maintaining the Jasper Crane Rose Garden in the Brandywine Park

3) Acting as volunteer coordinators for the Brandywine Festival of the Arts.
