Party in the Park was August 13, 2011.  We had a great turn out. Thanks again to all the chamber businesses that made it possible. With our local businesses help we were able to offer to the public  FREE SWIMMING, FREE ACTIVITIES (water slide, basketball shoot), FREE GAMES, FREE MUSIC and a hamburger or hotdog meal (with chips and drink) for only $3.  There were lots of giveaways and games for kids.  This event is always open to the public and everyone is welcome.  Hope to see you all at next years 10th Annual Party in the Park.
