Welcome Friends!
Hello from the
Friends of Carroll Park!
We were neighbors….now friends,
that came together for the betterment of Carroll Park
and the Carroll Park neighborhood.
As a group, Friends of Carroll Park
nurtures the park with hands-on care and maintenance,
attends planning meetings, and provides events for the community.
Everyone can play a part in the success of the park,
whether it be volunteering, cleaning, gardening, or planning.
We are always open to new members, helping hands, and new ideas!
Get out & Give Back! Won't you join us?
