At the “Keep Yorktown Beautiful” (KYB) meeting on February 4 at the First Presbyterian Church, Secretary Patti Harbers announced that a total of 13 park benches had been successfully installed. The seven members present nodded in approval and relief as Harbers shared the recent history of these benches.
The benches in Yorktown City Park had become old and dilapidated when Mayor Baker approached KYB with a suggestion.
“Last year, Mayor Baker came to us about adding more benches to the park. We thought it would be a great idea to offer memorial benches, allowing people to honor their loved ones,” Harbers said.
