Help Wanted for Holiday Lights Decoration

Grounds & Maintenance

Dear Friends of Kings Grant,

In an attempt to bring back some traditions of the past enjoyed by our community, King’s Grant Community League will decorate Witt Park for the holidays. We are asking for your help in the form of your time and/or donations of strings of white outdoor mini lights and extension cords. Our plan this year is simple, to decorate a few of the crepe myrtle trees that line the park, add a few red bows and some stars. We would like to decorate the park on December 6th at 2 p.m. and continue on December 7th at 1p.m.

If you are interested in helping in any way please contact us: grounds@kgcl.org or reply on our Facebook page.

Thanks,
Mary Helen Kline
Grounds Director
