The grass and other plants planted around the pond last Summer, were washed away by the flood.\u00c2\u00a0 If you remember, flood waters covered the entire park by several feet.\u00c2\u00a0 More photos and links on the next page.<\/p>\n

The flood waters in Headwaters Park washed mulch out of the beds on both sides of Clinton Street as well as other areas of the park.\u00c2\u00a0 Grass in this park was relatively unharmed as it’s had several years to establish itself.\u00c2\u00a0 The trees lining Clinton have shallow roots.\u00c2\u00a0 At this point, permanent damage will probably be minimal.\u00c2\u00a0 More photos on the next page.<\/p>\n
