Friends of Murphysboro Foundation
Friends of Murphysboro is a not for profit community group with several ongoing projects that range from annual events in Riverside Park, such as the Big Muddy Monster Brew Fest (held in October) to Riverside Park renovation projects like the Veterans Remembrance Walk and the newly-completed Friends of Murphysboro public dog park. A diverse group of volunteers working together to improve life in Murphysboro and Southern Illinois by facilitating economic and social growth through community involvement and fundraising events is our mission.
