and the park should be "substan
tially complete" by the November
ceremony. Committee Co-Chair
man Julie Conley said Conley and
Robert (Bob' Schafer co-chair the
project
Much of the park is being fi-
nanced through sales of maquettes
of Greene 's statues, and Conley re
minds the public that a few of the
limited-edition sculptures are still
available Paver bricks and
benches are also still available for
purchase donation to the project,
Conley added
While certain parts of the park
work are being contracted to van
ous companies, city employees are
providing the bulk of the manpow er
in the project,
"The guys with the city have been
indispensable They're doing a
great job, and there’s no way we
could be accomplishing this with
out their help.’ said Conley.
Landscaping plans for the park
include use of Bosque County na
tive plants, perennials, and shrubs,
where possible Various lighting
schemes will highlight portions of
the park at night, and several of the
histone lamp posts being installed
throughout the downtowm area will
be incorporated into the project

project, contact the Main Street of-
tice in Clifton at (254) 675-2732
