It didn’t take long for vandals to strike as organizers begin to prepare Kennedy Park for Winter Wonderland.

One of the Winter Wonderland organizers, Roxanne Longstone, took to social media this morning to show what some feared when this project was announced. Strings of lights were cut down along with paint that doesn’t belong on parts of the Kennedy Park overlook.

Longstone stated that DCM has been hard at work painting and getting the park ready along with herself, volunteers, and Bishop Electric.

She pleaded for city residents to come together to stop this, or the city won’t be allowed to have nice things. Longstone stated that extra expense and work has to take place such as paying for storage and having volunteers watch the display. She asked the public to visit the park to help watch for vandals and if you see something, say something.

If vandalism continues, Longstone stated that Winter Wonderland won’t be able to continue as intended. She is understandably heartbroken and is wondering if decorating the park as planned is worth it if people are just going to destroy it.

    Antifa members hate Christmas and Christians. Fall River is filled with leftist hate mongers who would like nothing better than to see this event canceled. Those Antifa who are found responsible for this hate and fascism should be shipped off to Venezuela to enjoy a communist, fascist Christmas. Waiting for the leftist trolls to blame God loving Christians who by nature are conservative for these acts. Don’t think so you satan worshipping trash. Get out of Fall River in the name of God!
