"Missoula's Peace Park is growing"
The
JRPC has 4.4 acres on Waterworks Hill that we are developing into a
park dedicated to peace and including some sign of peace that can
be seen from the city. Recently, the Montana Conservation Corp
and 23 volunteers helped us cut 950 ft of trails to make the park more
accessible. And Fr. Jim Hogan donated a bench that has been
placed in the park. Many thanks to all! To donate toward
further development, get more information about the land or submit an
idea contact us at 543-3955 or peace@jrpc.org
