Realtor® Placemaker Grant
In 2016, the Crown Point Board was involved in the creation of the small park nest to the school. The lot next to the school was once the site of an old village home. This property was destroyed by fire. A local Cavendish resident purchased the property and donated it to the town and school to be used as accessory parking and park area. The Crown Point Board, in association with the National Association of Realtors®, was involved in the placemaking grant to bring this project to fruition. This plaque was recently delivered to CPBR. We hope that CPBR members will stop by the park and feel proud of their part in making this project happen.
