History:

Volunteers Make A Difference

            As momentum grows, more and more community members become involved and volunteers working at fund-raisers have been a major source of paying for the park’s development.  As the Town strives towards the total completion of the project, support will continue to be needed.

 

*You Can Help!

            All area families and businesses can contribute towards the new park by purchasing an engraved commemorative paving brick, which will be used to pave a patio area near a new shelter building.  Personalized bricks make great gifts for the person who seems to have everything, or for children or grandchildren.  One of the many benefits to a child that has his/her name on a brick is: a sense of belonging, increased self-esteem and pride, and a deeper appreciation and concern for the new Park.

 

How will it help

            What will your support mean to the new Park?  It will allow for improvements such as shelters, restrooms, a well, flag/pole, fencing for the baseball fields, and more. And, since this is an ongoing effort, planners will continue to add features for all to enjoy.

 

Tax Deductible

            Except for the actual cost of the bricks, all money raised will go towards funding the new Park, and of course, any donations made to the Park Fund is tax deductible.

 

Many Thanks

Much appreciation to everyone who has made Sunset Park possible! 

THANK YOU FOR YOUR GENEROSITY!

Commemorative Bricks

A Lasting Memory

 

          Used to pave a patio area near a new shelter building, all area families and businesses can contribute towards the development of our new Sunset Park by purchasing a custom engraved commemorative paving brick. 

            Commemorative bricks are being offered in four sizes and can be personally engraved with letters 3/16” to 1/4” deep, filled with durable black epoxy paint.  Purchasing a brick will give you a lifetime of satisfaction knowing that you have helped build the new Park and will also serve as a permanent memorial to those you love.
