WARNER PARKS ALLÉE REOPENING CEREMONY
Remarks were made by Mayor John Cooper, Metro Parks Board Member Sharon Gentry, Friends of Warner Parks Board Chair Jeremiah Pyron, FOWP Vice Chair and It’s My Nature Campaign Co-Chair Govan White, and FOWP President Jenny Hannon. According to Tim Netsch, Assistant Director of Metro Parks Planning Division “This is one of Nashville’s most important public places. It’s part of the identity of the city. It’s seen so much wear and tear over the years, and now thanks to Friends, it is seeing a lot of love, too.” Notably among those friends was a lead gift by the Frist Foundation, amounting to a total of $4.9 million raised to date thanks to the generosity of 75 community members who have heard the call of the It’s My Nature campaign, for after all – it’s our Nature, Nashville.
