Public is invited to provide comments throughout the month of May
JEFFERSON CITY, MO, May 22, 2026 – The Missouri Department of Natural Resources invites the public to visit mostateparks.com and view informational videos for Lake Wappapello, Morris, and Harry S Truman state parks along with Bollinger Mill and Harry S Truman Birthplace state historic sites.
After watching the videos, the public is encouraged to provide input and comments, as well as submit questions about the historic sites or park and their operations. State park and historic site team members will respond to the comments, answer questions and provide information.
The videos will be online and available for comment throughout the month of May for visitors to view at their leisure. Once the month ends, the comment period will be turned off, but the video will remain online for viewing.
Input from the public is important to the Department of Natural Resources. The online videos inform the public on the current status and future plans for parks and historic sites, and offer visitors the opportunity to comment on the facilities.

The primary source of funding for the state park system is half of the dedicated constitutional tax of one-tenth-of-one-percent Parks, Soils and Water Sales Tax. The tax provides about three-fourths of the division's budget for operation and development of state parks. All additional funding for Missouri's Division of State Parks comes from revenues generated in the state park system and some federal funds. For detailed information on any of these activities, please visit the Upcoming Events webpage.
