Possible future

Welcome to Friends of Fort Getty Park

We are neighbors looking to engage the entire Jamestown community in a creative discussion about the future of our best public park. Please join the conversation.

Our purpose

Exploring public-use alternatives to the private RV park. Returning our waterfront crown jewel to the whole Jamestown community.

Interested in more open space, a playground, a picnic area, boat storage, a wedding venue... or whatever? Are you a taxpayer worried that the investments needed for the RV park are just too expensive?

Friends of Fort Getty Park is forming an email list for residents, homeowners, and community members who want to participate in a conversation about creating a different future. Stay tuned for updates.
