Leadership Sulphur Springs Project

Leadership Sulphur Springs 2022 is excited to announce our class project. This year’s leadership class has decided to give Mary Bonham’s Kid’s Kingdom at Buford Park a refresh! The project will include power washing, sanding, staining, equipment replacement, and new lighting. In 1997, the community came together to build Kid’s Kingdom and we want to reinvigorate that community spirit and come together again this spring. We can’t do it without your help!
