The information says that the Grand Opening of the historic Fort Maurepas Park will be held on Saturday, October 24,2009 at 5:00 - 7:00 P.M. at Front Beach Drive, Ocean Springs, Mississippi. There will be a 20-minute fireworks and a formal ceremony on the said event.Fort Maurepas Park features:
  • a short stone wall on the footprint of the prior fort
  • an outdoor stage
  • a pavilion with handicap accessible restrooms
  • a play structure and splash pad
  • a grass paver parking area
  • the bronze statue of d’Iberville by internationally known sculptor, Marlene Hilton Moore.
According to ci.ocean-springs.ms.us, the Metal replicas of the eight flags that have flown over the Gulf Coast since the French landing are showcased in the main walkway.
