The upgrade of the unnamed park in Trafalgar Avenue by local residents is progressing well. In December the play equipment was installed in time for the summer break. In January, the bark soft fall has been completed and a much-needed water station has been fitted next to the bicycle way. The best thing though, is the park has a name “The Runway”, to remind us of the llnk to the WWII airstrip that the park sits upon.
There is still more work to come, with machinery due in February to break up the soil ready for new plants and in March a number of planting days scheduled. If you would like to become involved in the project or join the planting days please email thepark@uminacommunitygroup.com.au, we are also looking for donations to help fund more equipment at www.mycause.com.au/page/117486/help-fund-a-shade-sail-for-our-local-park.
