The Sweden Community Foundation, the Sweden Town Board, and the family of Willie Sweeting invite the community to the Willie Sweeting Gazebo Dedication at 2 p.m. on Saturday, July 10, at the Sweden Town Park. A reception in the Sweden Town Park Lodge will follow the dedication. In case of bad weather, the dedication will take place inside the lodge.
The new Willie Sweeting Memorial Gazebo is located on the east side of the Sweden Town Park Lodge and is surrounded by water on three sides. Donations from the Sweeting family, Sweeting grandchildren, and many friends of Willie Sweeting made this project a reality.
The Sweden Community Foundation, founded in 2005, is a non-profit 501(c)(3) foundation committed to the expansion, promotion, and funding of recreation opportunities for the residents in the greater Sweden Community. The foundation has helped finance many Sweden Town Park projects, including Nietopski Field, soccer/football fields and lights, Sweden Town Lodge, an accessible playground, and Splash Pad, plus supports many other community projects with grants and individual donors.
