Stevens Park lights brighten Garden City ceremony
Garden City residents gathered for a Saturday light hanging at Stevens Park as part of a community ceremony led by Garden City Downtown Vision Inc and the parks department. About 125 people helped or watched, including Junior Morales who joined his stepfather Manuel Ortiz to hang LEDs on roughly 100 trees, a tradition praised by Beverly Schmitz-Glass. LED lights offer durability and energy savings, though initial costs were higher, with organizers planning to expand coverage along Main Street in future years. School groups from Garden City Community College also participated, highlighting involvement from the Student Government Association and the Black Student Union.
