Centro adopts a park

The club adopted a park to work on and it is Tommy Maccione Park, 306 E. Marcy St.
Tommy Macccione park, also called Artist park, is named after Tommy Macccione (1907 - 1992). He was known for his equally colorful, post-impressionistic impasto paintings of flowers and landscapes.

Here is a picture of our meeting with Santa Fe's Park & Rec., next to Maccione's bronze sculpture.
