The Morrow Veterans Memorial Park is centered in a rural/residential setting in the Village of Morrow. It is 8 miles southeast of Lebanon and 5.5 miles southeast of I-71. This property lies between the Village of Morrow, the Little Miami River, and the little Miami Bike Trail, itself a State Park. Through help with the Warren County Commissioners and ODNR grant we were able to install a watercraft launch.
HISTORY
This parkland was purchased in 2004 from the Village of Morrow through a cooperative agreement in which park uses are maintained on the surface of the land where the Village of Morrow maintains a well field protection program. The Warren County Park District purchased the property from the Village of Morrow in 2004 for the purpose of developing and operating a River Access Park.
