The Gezer Park Project (pronounced "Geh-zer")
In 1948, U.S. President Harry S. Truman officially recognized the State of Israel. That same year, Leawood was incorporated. Six decades later, Leawood and its sister city, the Gezer Region of Israel, celebrated their historic bond with the establishment of Gezer Park. Its many features pay tribute to our beloved sister city and will educate and connect American and Israeli communities for generations to come.
Gezer Park is located at 133rd and Mission Road. It is open for public use and is available for special events. Contact Leawood Parks and Recreation for more information.
You Can Help
Gezer Park has only begun to reach its full potential as a beautiful, symbolic, educational and functional park for the area community. You can help bring all these plans to fruition with your tax-deductible donation to the Leawood Foundation. Learn How to Contribute.
