Detroit Recreation Department to Celebrate the Grand Opening of Joseph Walker Williams Park June 15
6/14/2012 - The Detroit Recreation Department will celebrate the grand opening of the Joseph Walker Williams Park on Friday, June 15, at 4:00 p.m. The brand new park around the Joseph Walker Williams Recreation Center was built thanks to the generosity of the Lear Corporation, which funded the $750,000 park. The new park includes two shelters with grills, a splash pad, walking trail, four horseshoe pits, baseball diamonds, and a playground equipped with a special electronic component.
"Thank you to the Lear Corporation for its incredibly generous gift to the community," said Recreation Department Director Lori Cunningham. "People of all ages will enjoy this wonderful new asset for generations to come."
