The Town of Newburgh is inviting kids and their parents to the grand opening of a new playground. WNIN’s John Gibson has a preview:
The public is invited to the inaugural Play & Back-to-School Bash at the playground in Lou Dennis Community Park.
The event starts at 11:00 a.m. next Tuesday at 402 Park Drive.
Instead of a traditional ribbon cutting, the town says it’s celebrating the best way possible—by letting kids play.
Officials say the playground features modern, inclusive play equipment for children of all abilities and an obstacle and fitness course for all ages.
The Warrick County Health Department, Newburgh Chandler Public Library, and Midstates Recreation will be on-site with activities, educational resources, giveaways, and information about the playground's features.
The new community space was made possible through investment from the Town of Newburgh, Indiana READI 2.0, Newburgh Park Pals, private donors, and many community partners.
