Hooray! We just received word that our application to the South Dakota Community Foundation has been approved. We will be receiving $500 to apply to our goal of constructing a permanent flower bed disiplay at our Organizational signs on the west and east end of Wagner along Highway 46/50.
The Horizons Beautification plans are moving ahead. An application for a grant from the South Dakota Community Foundation was filled out, signed, and mailed March 15th. We have applied for funds to purchase concrete blocks to put around the two organization signs on the east and west ends of Wagner. One is by the Armory, and the other one is on the west side of the Gus Stop. We are going to plant perennials and some annuals the first year to get it started. The City workers will assist us in watering and we will take care of the wedding and maintenance. We also plan on applying for a portion of the funds for this project to our Wagner Community Foundation. Deadline for that application is May 1st.
