Parks commission celebrates city signs, tours parks

NORWICH – Members of the City Parks Commission, along with Mayor Joseph Maiurano, gathered in Weiler Park Monday evening for their annual tour and to recognize local artists Julian Button and Robert Wightman for their work in designing the City of Norwich signs.
