Kennedy Park Beautification Activities
Community beautification is a way to involve the entire community.
Both planning and volunteer projects can put to work the abilities and knowledge of ALL neighborhood and community members; youth, elders, people with disabilities, minorities, and others who have great ideas. Bringing these people into the mainstream of community activity means a stronger and more equitable community neighborhood; more potential volunteers; and a broader and more accurate perspective on community resources, needs, and possible future projects.
Community beautification can build stronger community relationships.
The experience of working with others on a project that everyone is invested in creates bonds. These connections weave a web of social capital, which enrich lives and strengthen the community.
Social Capital
is somewhat like economic capital. It’s the social “currency” that’s available for people to spend as a result of their relationships. All social capital comes from constructing networks through meeting and getting to know others.
What is this day?
National Roanoke Community Beautification Day is a day for Southwest Virginia residents, families and visitors to come together to beautify homes, parks, and neighborhoods for a better Roanoke. This day speaks to the love Southwest Virginians share for one another that should resonate around the world.
