The Planning Begins

Making a lasting effect on Sevier County was the main goal for Project Sevier members, and together they have set out to plan, design, and establish a public park for all children and their families.  A park for all children would mean a park that has been designed to include equipment for those with special needs.  The committee wanted to develop a park that would allow families with a special needs child a safe place to visit with all their children.

The beginning stages meant meeting with Sevierville City Parks and Recreation Director, Bob Parker.  Through the meetings the location, design, and cost were discussed.  Once the design of the park was completed the committee wrote a letter to the Sevierville City  Board of Mayor and Alderman to request land to establish the park.  On January 3, 2011 committee member, Lisa Bremer, and Parks & Recreation Director, Bob Parker, presented the designed plans for the park to the Sevierville City Board of Mayer and Alderman to request property located near the new LeConte Medical Center for the park site.  The land was granted. 

Project Sevier immediately began working on the establishment of raising money for the new park.  In days ahead you will be able to read more about this exciting new park and how you can help make it a reality!

  1. The link to the 3-D design does not work. The project sounds very interesting and worthwhile, Looking forward to learning more and seeing it come to fruition.
    It is very encouraging to see idea that was birth in Leadership Tomorrow being carried forward and acted upon.
