Graham Park news
New history exhibit at Graham Park!
We are excited to announce that there is a new history exhibit at Graham Park thanks to the generosity of Mayo Clinic. The exhibit features the history of the park which originated from a donation made by Dr. Christopher Graham, a Mayo Clinic founding partner, and his wife, Blanche Brackenridge Graham. We encourage you to view the exhibit at Graham Park during scheduled activities.
Project updates
We continue to work diligently on updates to the Graham Arenas and other maintenance.
- New bleachers have been installed as well as painting and LED lighting in Graham Arena 1.
- New roofing and side panels on the Industrial Building were completed this week, completing the project.
- You might have noticed the corner of 3rd Ave Southeast, former site of Seneca Foods, looks much different these days. Demolition of the Seneca building is complete, with the exception of the concrete foundation which will continue through next week. You can view drone footage on our YouTube channel.
