PARKS & REC 2023 SUMMARY Shelby Pride, Parks Director
JULY & AUGUST
OCTOBER
Our annual Night at the Park was a *booming* success on the eve of July Fourth. Thousands of people filled Town Hall Park for the celebration and to watch our 15-minute firework show. “Dirt Works” was hosted in partnership with All Terrain Snow and Landscape Management and Schied Excavating in August.
We started October with our Harvest Moon Festival and hayrides through the park. It was a beautiful fall day! The final Asset Donation Agreement with AJAA was signed by all parties and we welcomed the sports staff with open arms!
NOVEMBER & DECEMBER
Autumn was in full swing by November and our maintenance team winterized the equipment and stored it. We held A Veteran’s Day Celebration and uniquely honored our Vets with Hendricks County’s first-ever drone show. We rounded out the year with our annual Christmas Tree Lighting. This event was especially significant this year as we welcomed our new 34’ Christmas Tree as a beacon of the season for our community.
