SPLASH PARTY Sarah Ford for Shaw Media
Jordan Price, 9, stops and waves while splashing around at Neighborhood Community Park on Wednesday, June 21, during the Fulton Police Department’s “Splash Day Afternoon.” Jordan attended with his mom Melissa Housenga since they live a block away from park and thought it’d be a great way to cool off on the hot day. Officer Adam Wherry is behind him adjusting the spray nozzle of the inflatable unicorn sprinkler. Story on page 9.
