Environmental Center
This park has become a real asset to
Crestview and the area's students. The park provides a learning environment like
no other and was acquired from the Florida Division of Forestry. Over 100 trees
are identified in the park. These trees are indigenous to the state of Florida.
An outdoor covered picnic pavilion has proven to be an excellent site for field
trips and Easter egg hunts. The Environmental Museum on the site offers a great
educational tool for our area students. All displays on hand are relative to the
forestry industry that helped found the Northwest Florida and Crestview area
years ago. Several hundred children visit this park each school year. The
Environmental Center is located on Butler Circle (off of Mapoles Street), right
next to the fire tower in Crestview.
