Our Vision
Our vision is to create a vibrant community hub where every individual, family, and visitor feels a sense of belonging and joy. Through thoughtful planning and proactive fundraising efforts, we aim to swiftly transform Trempealeau, WI, into a place where ‘Home is where our park is' is more than a slogan—it’s a reality. Our commitment is to expedite the development of our new park so future residents and visitors can enjoy enriching outdoor experiences for generations to come. Together, we will build a park that fosters unity, recreation, and cherished memories for generations to come.
The Fundraising Efforts
We have been working closely with the Village of Trempealeau, the Trempealeau Chamber of Commerce, Trempealeau Youth Sports Club, Ayres Associates, and many other focus groups to gather community input for what elements the park should have and what needs to be fundraised.
