model, a working compost system that we will dig up each week to observe. They will also

get to observe earthworms, learn about litter and look at water quality in our lakes and the

ocean through direct water testing and videos. These are just a few of the activities

planned! Appropriate for all ages.

Through generous support of private funders and grants, the Winona Lake

Limitless Park will break ground on Phase II with the installation

of a new play structure!

Fundraising continues for additional phases of park renovation including year

round restrooms, parking, and the limitless playground.
