"Note that the Nature Realm does not allow pets".
Many parks exist due to the foresight of a few visionary individuals, including F.A. Seiberling. He donated more than 400 acres to expand Sand Run Metro Park. Land that he owned from 1920 to 1948 was purchased by Summit Metro Parks in 1964 to become the Nature Realm.
Seiberling co-founded Goodyear Tire & Rubber in 1898 and played a leading role in developing Akron from a small town into the “rubber capital of the world.”
