PROJECTS

There are ongoing projects at UMLC throughout the year.  The Union Mills Community Wellness Park, which is located behind the main building, has activities for all ages and abilities.  Visitors can enjoy a variety of equipment, an asphalt walking trail, a series of inter-active stations, or just enjoying the scenery.  Seating is available in 2 gazebos or on  benches located around the trail.  A community garden and  fruit tree orchard also enhance the visit. Other attractions  are an outdoor stage for education and art events, and a Geocaching opportunity that is being placed in the park.   A Little Sharing Library is located in front of the main building. Our board members plan to schedule events regularly, both inside and outside the main facility.
