One of the more unique features of Stephens Lake Park is the plan for an arboretum. The long-range master plan includes tree collections throughout the Stephens Lake Park, primarily concentrated on the eastern side. The opportunity exists to donate complete collections. Please contact the Parks & Recreation Department @ 573-874-7201 for more information.
Additional bench donation sites have been added at Stephens Lake Park. The cost of a bench and plaque is $500. Payment is due at the time the order is placed. Benches are made of environmentally-friendly recycled plastic lumber and are installed at approved sites in the order requests are received. Installation depends on the time of year orders are received and the number of preceding orders. The department usually installs the benches in the fall and late winter so that the benches are available during the spring and summer season. Once the bench and plaque are installed, the contact person will receive a letter of notification. Available locations are identified on the map below.
