Youth, seniors and adults from the Central Long Beach have been working side by side to build Peace that is the new King Park Peace Garden. There were two build days on August 14 and 21 after weeks of planning and preparation. The build days were amazing with volunteers from Victory Outreach Church, the Boys & Girls Club, Long Beach Youth Soccer League, Weed and Seed Green Team, Weed and Seed Steering Committee, Central Neighborhood Advisory Council, and South Wrigley Advisory Group. It was a beautiful site to see different ages, races, ethnicities and abilities work together to build the Peace Garden. Click on the interviews below to hear from our volunteers:
