Four state parks saved by previous agreements

With most of Arizona's state parks closing, as mentioned in previous posts here on RV Arizona, except for those that are turning a profit, there are four others that luckily survived the legislators ax.

These are the parks that had previously established agreements when the state park system took them over. Each will now revert back to the original operator or owner as per these agreements and will likely stay open unless the operator decides to close it.

These include Boyce Thompson Arboretum State Park in Superior, Sonoita Creek State Natural Area (photo), Verde River Greenway State Natural Area and Yuma Quartermaster Depot State Historic Park, which the city of Yuma is keeping open and has already increased the number of visitors.

Check back often as we will keep you posted on the latest developments with the Arizona State Parks.
