The content on Pershing Park is inaccurate. The State of Missouri did not purchase the original 2500 acres for the Park. The Land was Purchased by the Pershing Park Memorial Association in 1931 and given to the state of Missouri in 1937. Since 1937 the state of Missouri has added to the size of the park and now it contains over 5,000 acres.Rscruggs (talk) 20:42, 19 June 2013 (UTC) Regards, Rick.Rscruggs (talk) 20:42, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[1]Rscruggs (talk) 20:42, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
