Congratulations!!


Thank You Friends of The Park!! We have passed our fundraising goal of $75,000! Today's total is $79, 334!! Yay!! The support for our project has been overwhelming, and we thank each and every one of you for donating your time, talent and treasure to our new community park!! But we can't stop now... in order to get the peace pole and performance shelter, we still need to raise more money! So if you haven't signed up to volunteer yet, or still want to donate financially to our project, please do so! It is always uplifting to see projects go above and beyond their initial goals! Well done everyone!!
