"So we brewed this beer to have lemon, melon, and floral notes."

"When we heard about the Centennial Park project, we knew there was a space for us to be helpful as the home for the campaign fund," says Community Foundation of Johnson County President and CEO Shelly Maharry.

The first phase of the project is scheduled to break ground in 2024, with future phases including a splash pad, wheelchair-accessible playground units, additional restrooms, an open-air pavilion, and honor garden.
