HESPERIA — The Village of Hesperia recently celebrated the groundbreaking for its newest addition to Vida Weaver Park — a state-of-the-art pavilion designed to enhance the community’s outdoor experience.

“The new pavilion, sparked by Hesperia Beautification, is made possible through funding from the Oceana County ARPA (American Rescue Plan Act) Committee, MEDC (Michigan Economic Development Corporation) Revitalization and Placemaking 2.0 Grant Program via The Right Place’s regional grant award, Community Foundation for Oceana County, Village of Hesperia and other community stakeholders,” states a press release from The Right Place. “This park enhancement will serve as a focal point for gatherings, events and leisure activities, fostering a sense of community and belonging on the banks of the White River.

“The Village of Hesperia is deeply grateful to the funders whose support has made this project a reality. Their commitment to enhancing the quality of life in Hesperia is commendable, and we look forward to the positive impact the pavilion will have on our community.”

Vida Weaver Park is a beloved community space known for its access to the White River, picturesque setting and convenient location. “The addition of the new pavilion underscores the village’s dedication to providing accessible and inviting outdoor spaces for residents of all ages to enjoy.”
