If you are unable to fund a bench alone but still would like to participate, partial donations directed to the bench project will be pooled with other partial donations so a bench can be funded. Use the same form here and place a check mark in the appropriate box indicating this is a partial donation toward a bench.

The bench you have ordered may not be purchased immediatly after payment. ARPD will be ordering benches after 10 to 20 benches have been paid for. This is to help keep costs of shipping down. You will receive a note from the Jean Sweeney Open Space Park Fund when the bench has arrived and when your plaque should be delivered to the ARPD office for placement on your donated bench. Once your bench is placed within the park, you will be informed of the location so you can visit your bench.
