Informational video updates for state parks and historic sites posted online

Team members from Missouri State Parks invite the public to visit mostateparks.com and view informational videos for Abbie and Abel Van Meter State Park, Thousand Hills State Park and  Deutschheim State Historic Site.

After watching the videos, the public is encouraged to provide input and comments, and submit questions about the historic site or parks and their operations. Park team members will respond to the comments, answer questions and provide requested information.

The videos will be online and available for comment through the month of June for visitors to view at their leisure. Once the month ends, comments can no longer be submitted, but the videos will remain online for viewing.

Input from the public is important to Missouri State Parks. The online videos are helping to inform the public on the current status and future plans for parks and historic sites, and offer visitors the opportunity to comment on the facilities.
