“This beautiful location will boast a fully accessible playground for children of all abilities, updated shelter houses, a fully renovated restroom facility and, in collaboration with the Green Township Trustees, a dedicated 7 mile loop multi-use road for running, walking, and biking.”

Powell added, “Funds for this park will come from multiple grants to provide this new recreational offering to our citizens.”

The area is near State Route 253, ringed inside Kenyon Road.
