Hey there! The Jimmy Fund Cow Parade has made a stop at the park. You can spot “Moolah” created by @vdainc, and “Believe in Better,” created by @adam_oday, grazing on our lush green lawn at posquare until September 4th. This event honors the Jimmy Fund’s 75 years of recognizing progress and impact against cancer.
Thank you, @thejimmyfund, for allowing us to participate in the #cowparadene. Visit CowParadeNewEngland.org/CowGallery and buy a cow to support this important and necessary work.
