Council Member Kallos notes that "Carl Schurz Park is where so many of us spend our days jogging, walking dogs, sun bathing or on the playground that will be receiving $1.2 million in funds from my Council District. A thank you to the Conservancy and volunteers for taking care of the park and hosting annual events from the art show, to the Halloween Howl, to the tree lighting, to summer films and perfomances. I can't tell you how many times elected officials have said to me, 'we go to a lot of events, but the ones we look forward to the most are the ones here at Carl Schurz Park.'"
