Local Families Support Royal Park

As construction costs remain elevated, the Town of Hildebran is seeking donations and sponsors to close the gap in funding for its downtown park. Royal Park will include a covered stage, splash pad, 1/4 mile walking track, new concession building with restrooms, and inclusive playground equipment. In partnership with Burke River Trail Association, the Town is kicking off a Fundraising Campaign that offers unique contribution and legacy opportunities to businesses and individuals while also ensuring the park is completed with all the special touches without having to scale back.
