Renovation of the Public Safety Memorial Park
|
We have decided to continue selling bricks to complete the left side of the walkway leading to the playground. If you would like to purchase a standard 4x8 brick ($50) or an 8x8 paver ($100) please e-mail or call us at (251) 479-4514, extension 38. You can also download an order form or pay online using your credit card. Please CLICK HERE for more information. There is no deadline set at this time and we will continue selling the bricks until we complete the entire left side (approximately 300 bricks). As always, you can still purchase a kids painted hand tile or sponsor a tree, park bench, picnic table or covered shelter.
Any donation will help us complete the above projects and also our remaining goals of improved landscaping, a restroom facility, Police and Fire memorials, water spray ground and shade structures for the playground.
