Thanks to Champaign Central High School’s advanced welding class, Allerton’s Kirby Winter Wellness Walk has a new and improved lighted archway! These talented students planned and completed this project in just three weeks. We are grateful for their help, and even more excited to work with local schools to get more students out and into Allerton. Many students have never visited, but now this class has a stake in the Park. “It feels nice,” says Isaac Garcia, student at Central. “It’s just something cool because if this stands for as long as I want it to, I can bring my kids someday and say, ‘I was at Central High School when I made that.’”
