It’s a tiny park between pre-existing buildings — a new way towns and cities around the country are adding life to their communities. This started off as inspiration from a group of friends. Rod Landrum, SEK Point of Pride, said they would go out and they would travel, they would bring ideas back and implement them in our town. Then, that inspiration hit Rod Landrum and his wife as they were traveling to the East coast. “We thought, here’s an idea.” Once they returned to Parsons, they introduced the idea to Southeast Kansas Point of Pride. The city of Parsons is getting — what they call a Pocket Park — on Main Street. It all started with just one donation.
