North Park

85 Anniversary North Park Sign

     I imagine most small towns have one or two places that, over the years, are special to the people of that community.  North Park is a "Special Place" for Carlisle residents and has been for over eight decades. North Park offers a sense of warmth and belonging, it brings back memories of youth and good times.  It is a place where families, friends and neighbors have gathered and celebrated, watched fireworks, played or watched little league and softball games, held reunions or just strolled hand-in-hand. It embodies the intimacy of a small town and the natural beauty of Carlisle.  See "Memories of North Park" a collection of stories submitted by Carlisle residents.

     That natural beauty has been enhanced by the talent and efforts of the members of the Garden Club who spend countless hours making North Park, and Carlisle, just a little bit nicer.  I don't know whether nice people grow flowers or growing flowers makes people nice but the folks in the garden club are wonderful.  We are fortunate that they share their passion for gardening with us.  Please thank them when you see them.

     North Municipal Park, or North Park, was originally dedicated as "Municipal Park" on May 13th & 14th, 1922.  It is prudent that we take the time to celebrate the 85th Anniversary of it's dedication.  Click on the link below to see the dedication photo.  Dedication of Municipal ParK 1922
