THIS PARK IS YOUR PARK BY AL HEMBERGER

This park is your park | F |
This park is my park | C |
From the sandy sand box | G |
To the lovely tree bark | C |
From the slide and the swingset | F |
To the bouncing, rocking thingies | C |
This park was made for you and me | G | C |

Well I've been to Central Park
In New York City
It's really big there
And it's really pretty
But here at The Tot's Park
Mom can always find me
This park was made for you and me

Chorus

There's lots of toys here
For girls and boys here
Lotsa things to ride on
Even things to climb on
Trees all around it
I'm so glad we found it
This park was made for you and me

Chorus

Saturday is going to be a beautiful day! Please join us for a picnic to celebrate the new bouncers that were installed thanks to donations from the friends and family of Judy Davis (mother of Katy Cox and grandmother of Judine, Tots Park kid). We will lay a stone in Judy's memory in our new little garden in the southwest corner of the park. Special thanks to expert gardener Kory Riesterer for designing the plantings and working hard through all this rain to get the garden ready.
Special thanks also go out to Dan Marks and Keri Powell for spearheading the effort to raise the money for the bouncers in honor of Judy Davis.
