A group of Mutual of Omaha interns did their part to help out the city by finishing up some painting projects in Freedom Park. To keep cool in the hot weather, the volunteers had some fun with water between paint strokes.

A large group of Mutual of Omaha employees headed to Freedom Park to do some work for the City of Omaha’s Parks & Recreation Department. They painted some of the historic displays throughout the park and did some sidewalk clean-up by removing the grass that had overgrown the pavement.

The volunteers even got a little creative, spelling out the initials of their department (Information Services).

A group of Mutual volunteers visited the Heartland of America Park near downtown Omaha, where they were given a pile of mulch, a few tools and a little guidance. The work they did helped the staff of Omaha City Parks prepare for local festivals and other events — work they otherwise wouldn’t have had time to do on their own.

A group of 25 employees from Mutual of Omaha Bank worked with the Omaha City Parks crew to help perform seasonal cleanup at Memorial Park. The volunteers also enhanced the beauty of the rose garden by adding decorative bricks around the beds.
