Sharing stories from our community
Stories are how we attempt to communicate the holistic nature of life. Through stories we not only tell of an experience, but we share that experience and craft the story to our audience. Here we will tell some of those stories, and we invite you to tell YOUR stories. For more information or to tell your stories, please contact the Parkville Living Center.
Want to tell us YOUR story? Or perhaps a good story you know…
The posts below come from PLC leadership, volunteers and community members. We encourage all members of our community to tell their story or tell stories of their hopes and dreams. We want to hear from you! Help us perserve and share our stories.

The origins of Parkville Days
I have lived in Parkville for many years now, celebrating our historic downtown area, the river, the parks and of course Parkville Days. It never really occurred to me to look up the history of Parkville Days, as I just assumed a small river trading town simply always had a carnival-type event. This is not a story of someone setting off to research a carnival, rather it is the story of how amazing things start, both in terms of art but also in terms of tradition.

Our Vision
