Harding Rink Rollout Update

THANK YOU, FERNDALE! Over the past 60 days, we launched a community crowdfunding campaign to help fund the renovation of the Harding Park Inline Skating Rink. While we didn't reach our crowdfunding goal, we are incredibly grateful for the support our community showed throughout this campaign. Together, we raised $29,566 to help fund the Harding Park Inline Rink Renovation Project. Every donation—large or small—along with every share, conversation, and word of encouragement, helped build momentum for this project.
