Summit Park in Beloit has a new name.

The Beloit City Council voted unanimously Monday night to rename Summit Park in honor of Regina Dunkin.

Dunkin served as executive director of the Merrill Community Center for more than two decades, she is a former member of the Beloit School Board, and currently serves as Beloit City Council president.

The resolution was submitted by local pastor Dannie Evans.

An unveiling event to celebrate the park’s name change will be held at 1:00 pm on Saturday, April 13th at the park at 1218 Henry Avenue.
