This past Sunday volunteers began the initial work at Stoepel Park, digging holes, installing poles and pouring concrete for a fence improvement project around the little league fields! This project – a joint collaboration by the Rosedale Grandmont Little League, GRDC, the Brightmoor Alliance, Ford Motor Company, Lowe’s, Keep America Beautiful, the Detroit Tigers Foundation, the City of Detroit, and Wayne County – is the first phase of a larger park improvement project that will bring walking paths and expanded parking to Stoepel, along with many other improvements.
