The City of Columbus would like to thank HLPC for their generous gifts on continued improvements to the Fireman’s park Pavilion.  We are thrilled to have your support. Through their efforts, HLPC has been able to undertake much needed improvements at the Pavilion and continue to work towards keeping historic charm in our community.  You truly make the difference for Columbus, and we are extremely grateful!

HLPC is currently involved in Phase Three of the window restoration project.  The project includes installation of twelve widows on the Upper Level of the Ballroom.  Together with Thoughtful Craftsmen from Shorewood, WI., they are preserving the original beauty of the Pavilion.

Below are some photos sent to us on the windows being built to be installed in June of 2021.

**Windows were delivered this week in preparation for installation the week of May 31 - June 9th.
