NATO base park is planned
TherejLs a tree shaded park in
Hafnarfjotfiir which is the inspira-
tion behind the recently proposed
NATO Base Park. This park is a com-
plete surprise to the person who
finds it by accident. It's full of
trees, flowers, shrubs, and beauti-
ful multi-level divisions of space.
There are many little areas for
families to have a private picnic
within its boundaries. The vegeta-
tion is well developed in the park.
Birch trees line the walks. Ever-
greens reach three stories high.
The flower beds are very colorful.
We hope to create a park with the
same type of beauty on this base.
Since, the HafnarfjoJur Park is well-
established, successfully protected
from the wind; we do believe that we
can produce a park on base. It's
entirely possible.
Newcomers to Washington or visi-
tors to our nation's capital are en-
couraged to take advantage of oppor-
tunities to view the "Navy Summer
Ceremony" conducted weekly at the
historic Navy Yard during June
through August.
The ceremonies take place at 8:45
p.m. each Wednesday (weather permit-
ting) and are free. Due to limited
space, reservations are required.
