LWCF Grant and Plans for Freedom Park
The LWCF Grant at Freedom Park is supposed to be completed by the end Spring 2026.
It was originally set to be completed by August 2024, but due to COVID and other factors the grant was pushed back to increase in the cost for new equipment. Due to this we asked for an extension so we could focus on obtaining additional funds. If you have any more questions you can email
