“The Rea Park Board is excited to continue to make improvements to the park,” stated Paige Woodhouse. “The park board has been meeting for the past two years, taking baby steps to make improvements to the park, and we are all excited to make a leap into some of our larger goals with the support of the Cass County Community Foundation and the entire community.”
CCCF President Deanna Crispen said, “Our board of directors recognizes the tremendous need in our smaller communities for appropriate gathering places. The leadership in the Royal Center community has already completed preliminary work for these improvements and we are extremely impressed with their efforts. Our support with matching dollars will not only help them fulfill their goals but encourage others to invest and make local donations.”
