Meeting place
Park Day 2025 will begin at 10am on Sat., April 26th on the front steps of Glenmore Mansion. Our goal is to spruce up the grounds of our historic mansion by raking, trimming, spreading mulch and planting flowers. Some may just want to stroll the grounds appreciating the speakers, architecture, antique brick sidewalks, and large front porch. This local preservation event is in it's 6th year providing education for students while sharing opportunities for volunteerism.
