A ParkWorks beautification project at Orchard School Community Park has earned a $5,000 Community Impact Award, an award co-sponsored by Dominion East Ohio and Inside Business magazine.
In the eighth annual award competition, Dominion awarded $50,000 to seven winners selected by a panel of judges from 65 entries submitted by organizations throughout northeast Ohio. The award recognizes cities or groups that have made an impact in the community. Grant funds come from the Dominion Foundation.
As part of ParkWorks' "Schools Grounds as Community Parks" initiative, the Orchard School Community Park came to life. Attached to the Orchard School of Science on Bailey Avenue in Cleveland, the magical park is surrounded by an iron fence made of stick figures that seem to be laughing and dancing their way around the park. Inside, visitors come upon a complete ecosystem filled with a vegetable garden, a flower garden, and a wetland area filled with wildlife.
"We support the outstanding efforts of all the people involved in these award-winning projects," said Jay L. Johnson, president and chief executive officer. "Their work goes a long way in revitalizing our communities and making them better places in which to live, work and play."
Other Community Impact Award winners include:
Dominion has a diversified and integrated energy portfolio consisting of about 24,000 megawatts of generation. Dominion also serves more than 3.8 million franchise natural gas and electric customers in five states. For more information about Dominion, visit the company's Web site at www.dom.com.
