"LEO Weekly, an alternative weekly published in Louisville, Kentucky, reports that fundraising for the Ark Park has gone virtually nowhere since last May. Groundbreaking, if it was ever planned at all, has been postponed and postponed and postponed until next spring at the earliest.
LEO Weekly reports that the Ark Park has raised only about $1 million since last May and has raised a total of $4 million altogether. Its goal is to raise approximately $25 million. A representative of the Ark Park says, Funding is progressing, a little slower [sic] due to the very slow economy. He says further that they are 3-4 months behind schedule and adds, We are considering a few options to help speed up the construction and possibly open to guests earlier than our original schedule. Once we have more information developed Ill update you probably by the first of the year. LEO Weekly estimates that at the present rate groundbreaking might be scheduled for 2024.
Anyone who wonders where the money may be going in the meantime might consider the review by a volunteer named Roxy, posted at Charity Navigator.
