Program areas at Friends of Carl Sandburg at Connemara

2023 was a year dedicated to raising money, primarily through grants, to fund the purchase of a handicap accessible van for Carl due to a failure of a dam upon which caused the main walkway into the park to close and will remain closed for at least 2 more years. As a result of the dam failure, events normally held in the park were cancelled or attendance was greatly diminished from pre-covid years.
