Stilwell Community Park Development
Committee
I WILL HELP! |
What a great year! In
collaboration with Johnson County Parks
and Recreation Department Stilwell now
has 2 parks! The recent
investment of nearly $1
million dollars allowed for improvements
to the Stilwell Community Park.
Did you know there is a third park
planned and ready to go? (183rd and Mission).
We need help working with JCPRD,
providing support, monitor the timeline
and work on a history trail walk we want
to incorproate into the park. |

Stilwell Commerce Connection
I WILL HELP! |
The Stilwell community (66085/66013) has
247 businesses. We are always
looking for ways to assemble a business
directory, business to business
relationship development and helping
ensure everyone knows the services and
business locally available. What a
task to organize that many businesses in
our community but we will get it done
and if you can help, that's great!
If you can help us out, please let us
know! |

Communications Committee - NOTIFY JOCO
I WILL HELP! |
Staying in connection with everyone in
the community of nearly 5,000
is not an easy task. A few years
ago we joined forces with NOTIFY JOCO to
have Aubry Township and Stilwell listed
for communications (both non-emergency
and emergency). We need to
get the word out, coordinate with the
chruches for congregationasl support,
work with businesss and get residents
signed up. This one single
form of communication will replace other
platforms.
