Mullens Lions Club Forms Park Corporation Plan
Mullens Lions Club unanimously adopted a resolution to form a non profit corporation to buy and develop a county park at an estimated 25000 dollars. The club heard Jack Shipman of the state conservation commission promise a survey of the Barker Creek site in February and later said the committee would not meet soon. Members noted they did not join the neighboring Creek movement to avoid detracting from their own park project. The park committee was authorized to seek land for a dam site for swimming and boating and to acquire surrounding land for outdoor activities.
