Dedication of Jordan Creek Greenway at Smith Park
Tuesday, June 26 at 4:30pm
Springfield Public Works will be showing off their newly completed stormwater-greenway partnership project that connects Silver Springs Park to Smith Park near National and Division.
Join Ozark Greenways in dedicating this greenway. This is a wonderful example of a riparian corridor designed not only to have a fun trail along it, but also be beautiful with native plants and manage stormwater as well-benefits many times over! The trail will eventually pick up at OTC and head downtown and beyond.
