Frances S. Hall Amphitheater at Big Creek Park

The Geauga Park District headquarters at Donald Meyer Center provides visitor orientation and programming space. The 100 seat amphitheatre provides a natural setting for outdoor performances and special events. The entrance passes through an open-air, hewn wood arbor evoking the National Park structures created by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930's. The natural slope of the site allows for terrace seating with timber covered benches. Gravel paths, large boulders and naturalized plantings complete the design.
