Wolf Creek Park is a live, learn, work and play, outdoor oriented community with a green focus. It will serve as a model of environmental sensitivity while bringing jobs, housing and community facilities to Fayette County.

The New River Birding & Nature Center at Wolf Creek Park will host increasing numbers of school and adult groups who will benefit from field trips and nature study. With work in progress on a trail system, wetlands boardwalk and nature center at Wolf Creek Park, and with construction under way on industrial and residential sites, the Fayette County Urban Renewal Authority (FCURA) is asking the public to adhere to the Friends of Wolf Creek Park, Stewardship Agreement.

* Walking and hiking are permitted.
* Hunting is permitted 500 yards east of construction areas and developing trail system.
* No firearms or hunting permitted within 500 yards of construction areas or developing trail system.
* No all-terrain or off-road vehicles permitted.
* No alcoholic beverages or illegal drugs permitted on the property.
* Fires may not be built and are not allowed anywhere on the property.
* Do not remove any natural or cultural object from the property, including fossils, rocks, animals, plants, and artifacts.
* Do not relocate objects within the park.

Understanding there can be legitimate public use of this otherwise private property, the FCURA welcomes individuals to benefit from responsible use of the 1,000-acres of Wolf Creek Park.

The purpose of the Wolf Creek Park development is to bring jobs and significant tax revenue to Fayette County. The FCURA is relying upon cooperation from the public to help meet these goals that will benefit everyone.

Ongoing construction can pose significant dangers on the property. Additionally, the site has suffered from expensive vandalism in the past. Persons doing damage to the property and environment will be vigorously prosecuted. Littering, dumping and vandalism fines will be imposed to the fullest extent of the law.

Fayette County, Wolf Creek Park and the Urban Renewal Authority are exempt from liability for any damage or injury, including death, which may occur while on Wolf Creek Park property.
