FRIENDS OF THE INDEPENDENCE STATE DAM PARK RECEIVES GRANT

Friends of the Independance State Dam Park recently received a grant for $3,575 during their last grant cycle in March. This grant was funded from the Hanna Family Memorial Fund, under the Defiance Area Foundation (DAF) umbrella, and was used to create four hand carved wooden tree toppers and a beautiful totem pole for visitors to enjoy throughout the park. Pictured with the totem pole are (l-r) Knox Schroeder – state park visitor, Randy Wright – Friends of the Independence Dam State Park President, Drew Schindler – DAF Board of Trustees and Grants Committee member and Caden Schroeder – state park visitor.
