The community is invited to celebrate the start of construction on Kohn Park with a groundbreaking ceremony on Friday, February 27 at 10:00 a.m. at the park site, located at 5844 Sawyer Road, Sawyer, MI.
The ceremony will mark the official commencement of construction on the new park, a project made possible through strong community support, public-private collaboration, and grant funding. Given the winter season, the ceremony will be a brief outdoor program with short remarks followed by a ceremonial groundbreaking.
Complimentary coffee will be provided by Infusco Coffee for those in attendance.
“Kohn Park represents a meaningful investment in our community, by our community. It will be a welcoming, accessible space that will serve residents and visitors for years to come,” said David Bunte, Township Supervisor. “We’re excited to officially break ground and begin turning this vision into reality.”
Speakers at the ceremony will include township leadership, project partners, and representatives connected to the park’s legacy and regional impact. Community members are encouraged to attend, enjoy a warm cup of coffee, and help kick off this important next phase.
