Kids get ready because there is additional playground equipment coming soon!

The Edinburg Township Trustees are pleased to announce that Edinburg Township is one of two communities in Portage County to be awarded NatureWorks round 16 grant monies. The NatureWorks grant program is part of The Ohio Parks and Natural Resources Fund established by State Issue 1 in 1993, with the purpose of building and improving parks in the State of Ohio.

The Board of Trustees in February of 2009 appointed Chief Paulus as the local project coordinator and he developed a grant application titled “Tomorrows Leaders Play Today”. The total cost of this project is $12,200 with the grant covering $9,165 of the cost, which is 75%.

Chris Diehl and the road department staff will begin installation soon. Parents please do not let your children play inside of the safety fence during the construction process. Weather permitting total construction will take less than two weeks.
