THPRD was founded in 1955 by local educator Elsie Stuhr and other visionary citizens. They foresaw that the Beaverton area would grow and benefit from park and recreation services for children, adults and families. THPRD is a special park and recreation service district funded primarily by property taxes and program fees. Its service area spans the City of Beaverton and many unincorporated areas of eastern Washington County. The district has won numerous awards for the quality of its programs, facilities and financial management.
