Current Lions Park (taken May 2002)
We built the children's playground in the west end of town several years ago,
with a series of wooden play structures, large metal swings and carousel,
teeter-totters, etc. The 'Lions Park' sign was added in 1999. Swing seats were
replaced in 1999. Ten trees were planted along the west edge of the park in
2000. The fence along south edge of park was rebuilt in 2001. This facility is
the only one on the west side of town and is well frequented by the 2-9 year old
set. Other playground structures within the Town of Magrath exist, but are
geared toward older elementary school children (ages 5-12+).
Magrath Lions Park Upgrade Project
In 2002-2003 we will start fundraising for the replacement of the aging
wooden play structures. We will start by inviting community leaders and citizen
volunteers to collaborate with us in the preparation, design, and installation
of factory-engineered and tested playground components [ Volunteer
Here ].
In addition to requests for supporting donations from local businesses
and individuals, we will seek additional funding from other institutions.
New! If you wish to make a donation online, use the Donate button below

Shaper 2011 or equivalent is the currently proposed starter upgrade

finances permit, subject to input from the community project committee.
