Fountain Park.
"Park 2 Park : May 16, 2025 Day of Remembrance" is a community gathering in Fountain Park to honor the tremendous impact of the EF-3 tornado which occurred last year.
Recognizing the tornado moved across Forest, Fountain, Fairground and O'Fallon Parks, the event seeks to share both the similar ways the storm impacted the earth, but the different ways in which it impacted the community and continues to impact today.
The day will feature food, art, and community as we make space for our shared grief and welcome our collective healing.
