Elmwood Bess Streeter Aldrich Park News

Did you notice the dirt work this week? It's the next phase of the park renovations. Phase one was the new playground and just how fantastic is that?!

This next phase is the addition of a large gazebo on the south side of the lawn area. This will give us an opportunity for events, music, arts, a gathering place for people to sit, read, meet and enjoy the outside. 

Conversations this past weekend from people were excited about the possibilities to come and excitement for the future. 

Do you want to be part of the planning of that future? A park committee is being formed which will meet on a regular basis each month. Ideas such as...

Movies in the park

Arts in the park

Music in the park

Food truck events

Horseshoe competitions 

Fundraising for additional features

Attract outside special events to draw visitors to Elmwood

We need people with all kinds of talent. If you love Elmwood, love the park, want to be involved or even wish to have your voice and ideas heard email me at editor@elmwoodnebraska.com
