The groundwork and planning for a new 30’x50′ shelter and Gravity Rail System playground along with different climbers has started at the Marion County Park.

Marion County Conservation Park Ranger Dave Mckinney tells KNIA/KRLS News the groundwork has begun now when the ground is easy to move but construction for the new equipment will not begin until the fall. The playground is from Miracle Play Systems and once the concrete is paved for the area Mckinney expects only a few weeks of construction to take place.
