Bowie Plans Revitalization of Serene Way Park, Invites Community Input

The City of Bowie is transforming Serene Way Park into a vibrant micro-park, enhancing the space between Spark Lane and the Bowie High School Annex. This initiative aims to create a welcoming, community-friendly environment by adding new amenities and green space.

To ensure the project meets residents' needs, city officials are inviting the community to a public meeting at the Kenhill Center on March 5 at 6:00pm. Attendees will have the opportunity to review proposed ideas and share feedback on the park’s future design.
