Goodnight, goodnight, construction site,

Your gates stay closed, locked up tight.

The ground's not ready, not today,

We'll have to wait to come and play.

Notice to the General Public: 

We know you are excited for the Gretna Community Complex, but our land is under active construction and not safe for anyone that isn't currently part of the construction team. Please don't put yourself in danger by entering our active site. We will provide construction updates on our website using the link HERE!

For generations, Peterson Park was where memories were made. Now, we have a chance to bring that spirit back. Thanks to a $150,000 Challenge Grant from a private donor, every dollar donated toward Gretna’s new interactive water feature will be matched up to that amount. 

The donor has partnered with The Gretna Community Foundation (GCF) to help collect funds and lead this Challenge Match.

Learn more about this project by viewing the Media Release HERE

We will share project updates and additional learning opportunities with GCF on our website and our City's Facebook Page as they are made available.
