Flowing Well Park ribbon cutting

Tuesday, August 3, there was a ribbon cutting and celebration of the renovations at Carmel Clay Parks & Recreation Flowing Well Park. Many thanks to the Clay Township Impact Program project which added restrooms and much needed creek bank restoration and stabilization. If you have only seen the well along 116th Street, you will want to venture back and hike through the 16 acres of woods within one of Carmel's most historic sites. For more photos, click here.

Be on the lookout for the Carmel Utilities Hydration Station at this season's Summer Family Concert Series at the Gazebo!
