The park project is advancing by leaps and bounds this year! Each team that has contributed a mural in the last few months has added to the beauty and joy in this place. And, perhaps most visibly, the city government has installed the landscaping as promised, and the rainy season is helping the grass grow nice and strong. In a couple weeks the park will officially open its doors to the community (we've been waiting for the grass to take root before letting it get used).
The Carrillos park project was started in 2010 as a joint effort between the city government (who provided the land and landscaping) and Strong Missions (who provided the materials and labor through volunteers like you). The neighbors, and especially the children, are thrilled that there is now a safe place to play so they don't need to play out in the streets, and can't wait for it to open its doors.
Please enjoy the photos below.
The slide and teeter totter were donated and installed by the municipal government. |
