| Fleishman Park Renovation |
The renovation of Fleishman Park is almost complete. The park is open for use now, so stop by to have a picnic or just to lollygag. Be sure to bring the kids so they can climb on the new play equipment and swing on the swings. A new restroom is being constructed now and will be open for use by the first of December. In May, the new water feature will be on to cool you down during the warm summer days. |
