Our park is getting a new name…
Keeping neighborhood history alive!
Last night, the City Council officially voted to rename Beaver Dam Park to MacArthur Family Park. This new name keeps the memory of MacArthur Elementary School alive as the building gets torn down, while celebrating two historic American leaders: World War II General Douglas MacArthur and his father, Wisconsin Civil War hero Arthur MacArthur. It is a wonderful way to preserve our community's roots for generations to come.
