They are slowly learning about our wonderful park!

These individuals obviously did not like how our volunteers are landscaping Rock City Park. They ignored the "No Trespassing after Sunset" sign and at 1:30 in the morning decided to make their own changes to the park.
If you recognize them, we could use some supervised help caring for the park.

Please contact the Ottawa County Sheriff's office with any leads.

Kids are free!

Perhaps Kansas' most famous geologic park, Rock City is a small park near Minneapolis that packs quite a punch! Over 200 sandstone concretions, some up to 20 feet in diameter, cover the area. These concretions were formed from ancient sea deposits millions of years ago. Turbulent groundwater unevenly distributed the cement causing certain portions of the sand to cement together. As erosion broke down the landscape, the cemented concretions stood strong and now are here for all to appreciate.
