Clarksville Parks and Recreation gives Billy Dunlop Park a facelift

Clarksville, TN – On Saturday, September 28th, 2013 the City of Clarksville Parks and Recreation partnered with Freudenberg Filtration Technologies of Hopkinsville, Kentucky to complete a Company Service Project at Billy Dunlop Park.

The project consisted of replacing the gravel that covers the playground with a softer wood mulch, clearing out brush near the walking bridge and painting a fence.

“The Department of Parks and Recreation is proud of the partnership established with Freudenberg Filtration Technologies,” said Mark Tummons, Director of Clarksville Parks & Recreation, “and we hope that this will lead to further projects on down the road whether at Billy Dunlop or other city Parks.”

Freudenberg is a family-owned group of companies active on the global stage. Its 16 Business Groups operate various markets and industry sectors in 57 countries, employing over 37,000 associates.

Responsible conduct, of which community outreach is a part, ranks among the basic values of the company which was founded over 160 years ago. Freudenberg Filtration Technologies, headquartered in Weinheim, Germany, provides both liquid and air filtration solutions for a multitude of industries and applications.

“Freudenberg has a proud tradition of supporting the local communities that surround our facilities, and giving back to those communities though charitable activities is just a small token of our thanks” , said Barry Kellar, President & CEO of North American Region. “We are especially proud that family members of our workers also participate in such events.”
