Help support Lions Park

Help support Lions Park for the 2023 Season


We hope you will consider helping Lions Park ball field by advertising your business and/or cause with a vintage sign. In addition to helping create a vintage feel at the ball field, your $500 advertising funds are used solely for improvements to the Lions Park Ballfield area that benefit our youth and community, and ensures your sign stays up for that season. None of the funds are used for general city expenses.

To participate, all you need to do is send your contact information and a check payable to the City of Lake Elmo-Lions Park Sign 2023, 3880 Laverne Ave N, Lake Elmo, MN 55042 by April 30, 2023. We are not able to take payment by credit card at this time. After it is received, staff will contact you and support you through the process of making the sign and getting it placed for the season.

We hope that you will consider a sign subscription at Lions Park for the 2023 season.  Again, thank you for your support of this community asset.
