Thank you to everyone who came out for the groundbreaking for the Splash Pad today! Banner and kids prizes were generously provided by GPYFS! This project is anticipated to be complete summer 2027. The City of Hobart will be completing the in-kind work. Again, hats off to the combined work of Jessi Shriver, Hannah McCollom-Kuch, and Phil Fischer of the Lions Club for bringing something great to the families of our community. We look forward to sharing updates as the project progresses.
