For several months now, community groups have been meeting to support the construction of the new McPhelemy Park Stage.  

The goal is to build an elevated and covered performing arts facility in the northern section of the park that the entire community will be able to enjoy for years to come.    

The effort to raise the funds necessary to build the stage has begun.    

The Buena Vista Chamber of Commerce is coordinating the “Leave a Legacy” campaign. The chamber says that everyone can secure their legacy by engraving their personal message on a brick that will become a part of the walkway in front of the stage. Legacy bricks will cost $100-$300, depending on the size of brick chosen.    

Questions about the Legacy Brick campaign can be directed to the BV Chamber of Commerce.
