Volunteers will gather today in the Roy Nelms Park in St. Elmo to rebuild a gazebo that was decimated during the April storms.
And while the idea was born in the mind of Andrew Kean, St. Elmo resident and president of See Rock City Inc., he is quick to say bringing the project to fruition is the work of many more people.
“There’s a large team of people who are all pulling up the oars to make this a great day,” Kean said in an interview.
He said he passes the park each day as he drives to work, and noticed the gazebo had not been repaired since being “demolished” by the April storms.
“I just kept thinking, ‘Man, I’ve got to get off my … feet, gather some folks and we’ve just got to go out and build a new gazebo,'” Kean said.
