This Is Itasca!
We hope that everyone will come to know and appreciate the special charm of Itasca, the Big Little Town, which we call home. The City of Itasca along with Itasca ISD, Itasca Chamber of Commerce, Paw Print Press newspaper, Itasca Revitalization Committee, local business, and concerned individuals have banded together to promote Itasca and make it inviting to visitors and residents alike. |
Itasca is very proud of the large number of unique areas that have been developed for the use of our citizens. These areas include Itasca Veterans Memorial Park, Heritage Community Park, Itasca Depot Heritage & Education Center, Lawless Park and the newly revamped Crouch Park.
Located at the center of downtown, Veterans Memorial Park and Heritage Community Park complement each other and boost community involvement in the downtown area.
Veterans Memorial Park pays tribute to men and women who have a connection with Itasca and who have served their country in both war and peacetime.
