New Park gets Facelift
The
park on Norris and Scott streets not only has a new name, it has a new look.
Thanks to the efforts of Americorps volunteers. The volunteers, who work with
the Carl Perkins Center throughout West Tennessee, are required to do community
service projects and Northside Park was chosen as one. About 20 children from
the Scott Street Resource Center helped the Americorps volunteers plant trees,
shrubs and flowers Tuesday, March 28, 2006. “It was a lot of work and great fun
for all,” according to Pauletta Miller, who is an Americorps volunteer and
works with the Haywood County Carl Perkins Center. “The park looks great.”
