Whether you’re taking a stroll, enjoying the park playground, playing disc golf, or spending time with your four-legged best friend, staying hydrated just got easier!

A huge THANK YOU to the Black Hawk College Highway Construction Careers Training program for the outstanding work completed on the Longview Park Conservatory and Helen Horst Memorial area!

Their team helped shore up the foundation and prepare the historic conservatory for future improvements, helping us take another important step toward preserving and restoring this beloved community landmark.

We are incredibly grateful for their hard work, craftsmanship, and support of this project. Partnerships like this make a real difference in keeping Longview Park beautiful for future generations. Thank you for investing your time and talent in our community! 🌿🏛️💚
