Marathon’s kids gained another kingdom with the official reopening of the new Marathon Community Park playground on Aug. 10. Closed for around a month as employees from PlayWorks revitalized the old playground with brand new equipment, including interactive stations for toddlers and young children, the $153,000 project is sure to provide a safe and shaded place for family recreation for years to come.
“Have fun, come here as often as you want and use this park at every opportunity that you can,” said city manager George Garrett. “Enjoy. This is a good thing.”
