TILLSONBURG - The Town of Tillsonburg has put $340,000 towards their parks and playgrounds.
The Library Park and Elliott Fairbarn Park were upgraded, while the neighbourhood of Northcrest saw a brand new playground.
The park, located off Martin Street, is an exciting addition for residents of the Town’s north end, and features a three bay swing set with 2 belts, 2 toddler swings and an intergenerational face-to-face swing. Other features include a large net climbing unit, slide and interactive play area for children up to 12 years old.
Mayor, Deb Gilvesy says in a news release, "Tillsonburg strives to offer all residents the amenities, services and attractions they require to enjoy balanced lifestyles”"
In the downtown core, Library Park (located at the corner of Bidwell Street and Washington Grand Avenue) received $137,600 in updates, including a new interactive play structure with shade sails. Other additions to the space include a rubberized surface that’s perfect for preschoolers with ride-on toys, and an open area that can be utilized by Oxford County Library for creative outdoor programming.
