Yesterday’s Grand Re-Opening of Kellogg Park was an absolute triumph for the 5th Ward community! 🥳

This beautiful transformation became reality through the relentless advocacy of 5th Ward Councilman William Gallman Jr., who successfully secured the critical funding needed to deliver this project to our residents. ✅

We were honored to host a phenomenal turnout of leaders dedicated to our city, including our Mayor J. Christian Bollwage, Director of Recreation Stanley Neron, 5th Ward Councilman Gallman, Public Works Director John Papetti, Assemblywoman Annette Quijano, and members of the J.C. Kellogg Foundation. ⭐️

Alongside many more elected officials, they showed up to celebrate this amazing milestone together with our community, marking a bright new chapter for families to gather, play, and thrive. 🔥
