The rainy weather did not dampen the spirits of the 215 volunteers who helped beautify 38 parks at our 12th Annual Park Pride Day on Saturday, May 21. Thank you to all of you who braved the elements to plant flowers, spread mulch and get these parks ready for summer. Your efforts were so valued and appreciated.
