Fun park fact

Named for a beloved veteran, commercial airline pilot and community member, James E. Harrison Park honors the former Tuskegee Airman because of his years of service to the Lakewood community. Harrison worked on the city's incorporation and led the Glennon Heights Homeowner's Association and the neighborhood watch program for many years prior to his death in 2010.
