As we wrap up another amazing Juneteenth celebration, I want to take a moment to say THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart.

Events like this do not happen because of one person. They happen because of a team of dedicated people who give their time, energy, and talents to make it all come together.

A special thank you to Tiffany Hammock and LyWenda Black. Your hard work behind the scenes, your commitment, and your willingness to do whatever needs to be done are a huge part of why we are able to make this event happen year after year.

Thank you to Omega Psi Phi Fraternity for your partnership and continued support of our community efforts. Thank you to Holly Cruz for partnering with us to provide the Kids Zone and helping make sure our children had a place to learn, play, and enjoy the celebration.

To our vendors, sponsors, entertainers, volunteers, and community partners—thank you for believing in this event and investing in our community.

Most of all, thank you to every person who came out, shared a post, invited a friend, supported a vendor, donated, volunteered, or simply spent time celebrating with us. Your support means more than you know.

Friends of Clearview Park is committed to serving our community year-round, and we could not do it without you. As we begin planning future events and community programs, we are always looking for sponsors, vendors, volunteers, and partners who want to help us continue making a difference.

Thank you for helping us celebrate our history, strengthen our community, and build a better future together.

With gratitude,

Brenda Dotson
President, Friends of Clearview Park
