Location of Parks/Schools in WVNA!
Jullion Park, adjacent to Summerwind Elementary School, is undergoing a couple of significant improvements. The long planned restroom building has been installed near the playground. The building is constructed of pre-cast concrete and was delivered as a complete structure. Concurrent with the installation of the restroom building, the Parks and Rec Department prepared the site for the new public art project, approved by the Boise Arts Commission. The sculpture has been installed and a dedication ceremony was held.
At DeMeyer Park, the Parks and Recreation Department is completing the second phase of the new pathway system, which was funded partially by the Mayor's 2007 Neighborhood Reinvestment grant. This provides an all-weather route to the playground from the neighborhood area to the west of the park.
