Keeping Lakeshore Park Clean and Beautiful
The Conservancy thanks the City of Knoxville's Maintenance Team as well as the Parks and Recreation Department for rapidly responding to graffiti tagging incidents in the Park. Multiple areas were tagged, and the City was able to remove those tags both quickly and effectively.
Don't forget these upcoming events!
