Phase I is expected to be completed during late June 2024. Phase II will begin July 2024 and will consist of new restrooms/septic system and playground with an estimated cost of $350,000. Future phases may consist of pickleball courts, picnic pavilions, softball field, basketball court, and other amenities.
