Legacy Park Trust Inc. is an Idaho non-profit & 501c3 whose purpose is to purchase, manage and preserve
Cowboy Campground at Legacy Park in Idaho City, Idaho.
Through the generous financial support of our original stakeholders the land title was provisionally secured in August 2020 and many improvements have already been made.
Our next major goal is to raise enough funds to continue upgrading the Park and write grants so that the land and the resources can be transferred into our Trust. Through fundraising, private donations, sponsorships and corporate gifts Legacy Park Trust will be able to protect this resource for generations to come.
A Trust account has been created, whose sole purpose will be to hold donations in-trust until such time enough money has been raised for the buyout.
The donations are tax deductible and we are ready to receive large and smaller amounts.
We are working on great programs and events that Legacy Park @ Cowboy Campground will offer. Including working with the Idaho Veterans Network and the Idaho Back Country Veterans as well as the VFW and other family and faith based organizations.
Additional programs are: affordable wedding venue, retreats, clinics & seminars, horse & group camping events, as well as free and discounted summer camps for 4-H and youth events, we already hosted a Scout Troup and Ladies Camps.
The Future Needs a Lil Help
To provide and preserve a public access to the equestrian & public trails in the Boise National Forest and a venue for the promotion of outdoor recreational activities, equine-oriented events, and opportunities to advance and enhance physical, emotional
and spiritual growth in the community.
Our expanded mission is to promote and provide services for outdoor education, challenges for health, fitness and to nurture healing, physical & mental health.
Just a scenic hour drive from Boise, Legacy Park @ Cowboy Campground is a step back in time where we can relive the fun of camping and attending youth events.
Idahoans are quickly losing access to open lands to development, our first goal is to save Cowboy Campground at Legacy Park by the 501c3 creation of a non-revocable land trust.
We are actively looking for grants and funding to help make this “gem in the rough” a vital place for future generations to enjoy.
Organizations interested in helping to raise funds or to help with the completion of projects, will receive a pre-arranged exchange for the use of the facility and can add plaques to show their patronage of special projects.
All donations to Legacy Park Trust Inc. are tax deductible and will be used for the purchase of the park and improvements.
Now is your chance to help create a legacy for future families and organizations to utilize and enjoy this area.
Cowboy Campground LLC already has a solid reputation as good neighbors in Boise County and are also giving back to the Idaho City Community by supporting their Foodbank and Chamber or Commerce fundraisers and adding public events each year.
We are grateful to everyone who has already donated and pledged their support for our mission.
We hope you will support Legacy Park Trust @ Cowboy Campground by choosing us as the location for your next event or camping excursion.
Utilizing our “old West” facilities (refurbished miners cabins and Western Chapel) for a wedding memorial, family or group gathering.
All sponsorships inquiries and financial donations should be directed to our President, Sabrina Amidon, 208.362.4343, Pastor Frank Hartmann, 208.362.2785.
