In July 2009, the Washington State Recreation and Conservation Funding Board approved grants for projects across the state to build parks and trails, and protect disappearing farmland and wildlife habitat. The state funding board approved grants for 106 projects in 28 of the state’s 39 counties. The Tacoma Metropolitan Park District received money for the Children’s Nature Exploration Area at the Tacoma Nature Center.
