FISHERS— On Saturday morning, Gary Harris was back at Brooks School Park talking to the dozens of people who came out.
"It all start by just one day driving past the park and really not seeing anybody out here," said Harris. "He has a big heart. It’s not anybody asking him to do anything. He loves doing stuff for kids, the young people. This was his idea to give back to his actual community," said Joy Harris, Gary's mom."I feel like I’ve grown up at this park," said Harris."I ran this park. I’ve rode my bike up in this park. I got hurt at this park. I’ve cried at this park.
