IT'S TIME TO VOTE ON PHASE 2 OF PARK PROJECT!!
As many of you know, the Lincolnshire playground equipment was recently demolished. The removal was wholly unexpected, and it has left our neighborhood community without a safe, accessible place for children to play, neighbors to gather, and families to enjoy the outdoors.
We now have an opportunity—and a responsibility—to rebuild something even better.
Playground Update: Phase 1 is Officially Ordered! Vote below for Phase 2!
Exciting news! Our brand-new playground has been ordered, and a new swing set is on the way.
As we prepare to launch a fundraising campaign for Phase 2 of the Revitalization Project, we want your input on what comes next. If you attended the Park Party, you may have seen the vision board shown below. It features several ideas for future improvements, but now it's time for the neighborhood to help decide which projects should become our next fundraising goal.
Depending on the amount raised, the plan is to complete one or two of the proposed projects. Each project has multiple design options, and final costs can vary. Once the community's priorities are identified, the Park Committee and Board will finalize the project details and fundraising goals.
Help us make the most of our park, create a space everyone can enjoy, and bring even more neighbors together!
