It's Done but not Finished

Everyday there are children and families enjoying the playground. It is so wonderful to see that this one piece of our town has made such a huge impact on so many lives. Even though to many our new park is "done" it really isn't finished yet.

Our plans included a few more additions to the park. The biggest need is to have a public bathroom at the park. If you have little ones you know how great the need really is. To help make the park more beautiful and let others know about his life, we are wanting to have a mural of Vaughn painted. We also have planned to build a pavillion to offer shade on the hot days and the DC Riders have offered to help us build it this coming spring. Park benches are needed as well.

If you missed the opportunity to help build the park on Build Day, you can still be a part of creating something for the park.

Things that you can still help with:

Our park benches need to be put together and painted.

Anyone can sponsor these benches and have their name placed on the bench. There will be 3 benches made and can be sponsored for $200 each.

Help build the pavillion or donate materials (build day will be set at a later time)

Help maintain our lovely gardens by using your green thumb

Make name plaque's for those who donated to have a name placed on the fence

Help raise money and awareness for the public bathroom our park needs

Help with the mural. We need to have a design, materials and painters create this beautiful piece of the park
