Specific Need
This fund will be used to help with the maintenance, upkeep, and future updates for the Wamego Children’s Train in City Park. The Children’s Train has just gone through an extensive make over to meet new state-wide regulations. These updates do create a longer maintenance list and this fund will be allocated to help with that as well as create a fund to be prepared for any regulation changes, restoration in the future, and/or fun improvements.
