About
Somer’s Sunshine Park is named for Somer Thompson, a 7-year old Orange Park resident who was kidnapped and murdered in 2009. Spurred by the tragedy, the Town Council dedicated the 1 acre parcel of land as a park that would bear Somer’s name and provide a peaceful place to spend time with family and friends. Business owners and residents rallied together and donated approximately $25,000 in labor and materials. Community members and local organizations gathered in March 2012 to put the finishing touches on the park, which includes a walking trail, butterfly garden, shade trees, picnic areas and benches. Somer’s Sunshine Park is a shining testimony to the spirit, unity and dedication of the Orange Park community.
