History of the Locke Community Park and Tile Fundraising Project

On June 9, 2006 the Locke Foundation hosted the Locke Community Park Ground Breaking Ceremony, which was followed by the Locke Community Park Dedication Ceremony on October 8, 2006. The Locke Community Park was constructed on a vacant lot which once housed a building that burned down on Main Street in 1984. The Locke Community Park serves as a memorial to the Chinese pioneers of the area, and to the current and former Chinese residents of the town of Locke. The revenue from the Tile Fundraising Project will go towards the completion of a monument which will complete Phase II of the project.
