BACKGROUND
In 2016 the Chatham Rotary Club raised $4,000 for this project, and received a Matching Grant from the Rotary Foundation for $4,000. The total donation value was $8,000
PROJECT OVERVIEW
Monetary donation and volunteer labor from CRC assisted with the costs of refurbishing the park. There had been no upgrades since 1998 and it was time to remedy this. With the regular use that this park gets, the Chatham Rotary Club deemed this a worthwhile cause for the community.
IMPACT STATEMENT
The impacts of this part, as with all small town parks affect young, old, and in between. It provides an "outdoor space" to get out of the house. It serves the young with playgrounds and basketball courts. It serves the adults with a place to gather socially and it provides a good time for all! Chatham Rotary is proud to have been a part of this project, both with funding as well as some volunteer work.
