The window has closed for purchasing decorative tiles for the project.  Thank you to all of you who have purchased tiles!  We are working on plans for construction of the project.  A draft of a potential plan is below. 

Under the plan is a slide show of the pictures showing the progress of the project!

We can use some help as the prject develops, please send us an email at board@mympna.org if you want to help out.

Neighborhood Parks

Here is information on the matching program for improving our parks in the neighborhood. http://www.cityofmadison.com/parks/howVol.html

Northstar and McClellan are the only two City of Madison parks that would be involved in the program for our McClellan Park Neighborhood Association; this matching funds program is for neighborhood associations mainly. The Pocket Park is privately built by Veridian and not kept up by the City of Madison.

For Individuals who want to help out the parks, you can contribute by adding trees. ~$370 shade tree, ~$175-$200 ornamental serviceberry or crabapple tree. A plaque for a tree is an extra ~$200.

Individuals can also purchase for the park: benches ($1,000 on up) or all metal picnic tables ($1,000 on up) and these are left in the park year round; adding a plaque is an additional $100 to these items.

These individual gifts become the product to the city of Madison, the plaque is allowed to be placed on this gift for the fee. The plaque is a basic text and has to be approved by the City of Madison, usually for a memorial, 50 year anniversary, birthday, babies birth etc...
