Avalon Park Wesley Chapel Celebrates The Opening Of β€˜Avalon Park Common’

Congratulations go out to Avalon Park Wesley Chapel developer Beat Kahli (right in photo below, with Dist. 2 Pasco County Commissioner Seth Weightman) and his entire team from the Avalon Park Group on the Grand Opening and naming of Downtown Avalon Park’s community park β€” β€œAvalon Park Common.” 

According to the Oct. edition of the Avalon Park Sun newsletter, community member Desiree Gutierrez is credited as the winner of the β€œName the Park Contest.” For Gutierrez, the name says what the park is meant to be. She explained that a β€œcommons” has traditionally been β€œa place where neighbors gather, children play and the community comes together. I think it reflects Avalon Park Wesley Chapel’s vision of creating a welcoming place for families, friends and future generations to make memories.” 

Kahli, the founder & CEO of Avalon Park Group, added, β€œAt Avalon Park Group, we believe every great town needs meaningful β€˜third places’ β€” spaces beyond home and work where people can gather and connect. Avalon Park Common will be exactly that for Avalon Park Wesley Chapel.” 

He added, β€œIt is especially meaningful that the name came from a member of our community. This park belongs to the community, and we look forward to filling it with farmers markets (see ad below), festivals, music and celebrations for many years to come.” 

Commissioner Weightman said, β€œI am always proud to be part of exciting new additions to our communities here in Pasco County.” β€” GN; all photos by Charmaine George
