Lakes Park Fragrance Garden fountain restored
The serenity of the Fragrance Garden at Lakes Park has been enhanced by the return of the fountain! It is located in the pond near the propagation sheds.
Sr Parks & Rec Program Specialist Ross Becker and a team of dedicated volunteers have completed the first step. They have cleaned up the pond and repaired the water feature.
Next steps include selection of plants such as the American Lotus to populate the pond. We’ll also restore the plantings surrounding the pond.
Once the pond restoration project is completed, this spot is sure to become a favorite for photographers, or those simply seeking to enjoy the peace.
Bravo, volunteers!
