Central Play Park Redevelopment

Status
Funded in 2011
WWRP Applicant: City of Hoquiam WWRP Category: Local Parks WWRP Grant: $198,754 Applicant Match: $242,922 Project Type: Development County: Grays Harbor  Legislative District: 24th 

Hoquiam will use this grant to redevelop Art Pocklington Central Play Park, which is the city’s most used and highly visible community park. The City will install a new playground, fence, and spray park. The existing wading pool requires lifeguards, which are difficult to find and afford on the city's limited budget. The spray park will be safer, less costly, and allow use on weekends and in the evenings. The City and Hoquiam School District use this park exclusively for summer recreation programs. The City will contribute $242,922 in cash and a state grant.
