Wrapping Up 2022: Read the Annual Report!
As we embark on a New Year, we want to take a moment to thank all of the incredible donors, Friends members, and sponsors that supported us through 2022 and into 2023.
Without your support, the work of Friends of the Rail Park would not be possible! It is because of you that we were able to host thousands of people for free programs and events, install hundreds of new native plant species, and champion ahead with our plans for Phase Two this past year. Now, we’re heading into 2023 with a jump start on our fundraising efforts and exciting plans coming up.
To learn about what we accomplished in 2022, check out our Annual Report for the year.
