Morning sun Hometown Pride Projects & timeline
Flag Project
The first project for HTP was lining the streets with over 100 American flags. HTP and community members put these flags up and down each flag holiday. It is quite the site to see.
7/1/2015Cemetary Project
HTP's second large project was for the Cemetary. New signage and landscaping brought beauty and needed upgrades.
1/8/2016Community Garden
The HTP added a free to all garden to our community. The garden is now located on division street with 14 raised beds, including many fruit trees and a nature playscape for kids. Each year the elementary students come to plant and care for the garden. They work really hard for us. The garden is a beautiful addition to Morning Sun and we are so proud to see this project grow each year.
