Paint the Parks
We are excited to start our newest initiative, Paint the Parks! After all the positive feedback from the Community Mural at Karl Rosario Park, we would like to continue to paint our parks! The goal of this project is to invest in our parks, foster community pride and deter constant tagging. This initiative will take place in 9 different locations over the next year. Our first project is Rainbow Road at Karl Rosario Park!
