County Grant Money

I have applied for Grant money over the past 3 years and received $20,000 to improve our community.We have a Beautiful Park at Ave.J and 36th St NW at which 10,000.00 has been put into it.We planted tree's and shrubs,put benches around the exercise walkway for people to sit and enjoy.We have covered picnic areas with small grills to cook on,chess and checker board tables to play on.Community members try and keep check on it so we have a nice place to go and meet others and it is close to home.One couple open and close the park 365 days a year and trust me some people that visit this park are very rude to them and they are volunteering their time.

Schools

We have 2 schools in the community.2 elementary and 1 middle school.The teachers at these schools are very caring people.They try and keep informed of all situations.
