Food Truck Rodeo
The Food Truck Rodeo is rolling back to Ogden Park on Sunday, November 3 from 12-5pm! This event will feature over 30 food trucks and vendors, and Boba Funk & Friends will be there playing your favorite tunes. The event is free to attend- just bring money to purchase your food and beverages. The food trucks will donate a portion of sales for the day back to the Parks Conservancy to help support New Hanover County's parks. Visit NHCParksConservancy.org for more information, and to view a list of participating vendors.
Volunteer Work Day at Echo Farms
On Wednesday, November 6 beginning at 9am, Parks & Gardens staff will be installing an extensive native landscape at Echo Farms, and we need your help! Volunteers are needed to help us plant and water over 100 trees and plants. The project will likely last all day, however, volunteers may come and stay as long as they are able. Contact jorich@nhcgov.com for more information or to sign up.

 Echo Farms
Construction at Echo Farms is scheduled to begin early November. The entire facility will be closed to the public Nov 11-15. After Nov 15, we expect the tennis courts to remain operational throughout the process. All tennis business operations have been moved to the old golf pro shop while the tennis shop is demolished, and the new tennis/pool clubhouse is constructed. This phase of the project will also include swimming pool renovations, and we expect construction to be completed in Summer 2020. We will post updates at Parks.NHCgov.com and on our facebook page.
