The Official Grand Opening and Honorary Dedication to the City of Piedmont will be APRIL 21st, Noon to 2 pm. Food trucks, music, snow cones, face painting and more! Join us in our community-wide celebration for our community-built park!
Who We Are:
The Piedmont Park Project is a volunteer nonprofit 501(c)3 organization raising funds for and coordinating the building of Piedmont Community Park in Piedmont, Oklahoma.
Piedmont Community Park will have a spectacular 12,000 sq. ft. playground and custom splash pad, as well as future plans for walking trails, sports courts and more! The children of the Piedmont community designed the playground themselves, and in April 2017 the parents, families, and volunteers from all over the surrounding area erected the playground as a massive community project, one unlike the town of roughly 7,000 has ever seen!
Our Mission Statement:
To create a centralized community-gathering place to foster families and friends, to hold retreats and festivals, and to encourage more retail/commercial growth in Piedmont..
