Lafferty interested in seeing a community park built at the old West Union High School location. A place for West Unions children to play. Gardens, a stage, basketball, tennis courts and so much more! A place our community can be proud of! In every stage of planning, we need your input, feedback and some good ol' Adams County hard-work!

“Increasing people’s access to nature could dramatically reduce depression and stress-related illness… Dr William Bird, author of the report… said peoples’ stress levels fell within minutes of being in contact with nature.”(Occ. Health, 2007)

“The importance of pedestrian public spaces cannot be measured. We cannot prove mathematically that wider sidewalks, pedestrian streets, more or better parks make people happier, much less measure how much happier. However if we reflect, most things that are important in life cannot be measured either: Friendship, beauty, love and loyalty are examples. Parks and other pedestrian places are essential to a city’s happiness.” (Enrique Peñalosa, Project for Public Spaces )
