Come Play! Campaign
Ann Morrison Memorial Park was created through the combined efforts of Mr. Morrison, the Harry Morrison Foundation, the Morrison-Knudsen Company, service clubs, neighborhood organizations, and individuals who donated labor, money, trees, sundial clocks—and even ducks.
Today, the Harry W. Morrison Foundation’s Come Play! Campaign intends to fund a major park renewal. We ask for your help to keep Boise's gem sparkling for future generations.
Our campaign goal is to raise
$2 million, which will result in
$4 million in matching support:

$2 million from the Harry Morrison Foundation.

In 2016, the City of Boise and the Harry Morrison Foundation joined forces to study public support for projects suggested by Ann Morrison Park’s professionally rendered master plan. The study narrowed the list of potential park improvements to six key upgrades the public was passionate about.
