Master Plan
The Master Plan is a concept drawing illustrating recreation facilities and landscape features planned for a park site. It does not necessarily represent what amenities are currently in a park.
Adopt a Park
The Adopt-A-Park program gives churches, civic organizations, local businesses, and other community groups the opportunity to adopt their neighborhood park. Adopting groups will commit to maintaining their park for a renewable one-year term, helping with things such as eradicating graffiti, picking up litter, filling mutt-mitt dispensers, painting site amenities, raking leaves, and mulching trees and planting beds. In exchange, the Department recognizes the group as the adopting agency via our website and signage at the park.

About Helen B Lowder
Formerly known as Centennial Park, the name was changed in May 2003 in honor of the late Helen B. Lowder.
Mrs. Lowder was recognized for her years of service as a member and past president of the Boise Parks & Recreation Commission and for her volunteer work as a trustee and former president of the Boise Public Library Board.
Lowder was a member of the Foothills Conservation Advisory Board and publicly endorsed the serial levy passed by voters in 2001 to preserve open space in the Foothills.
She also served on the Library Building Steering Committee and participated in the selection of consultants for the library vision project and development of the Master Library Facility Plan that will guide a branch library system over the next 20 years.
