I am pleased that work has been completed on brand new playground equipment for two city parks. Veterans Park on Milk Street as well as Shorty Degaspe Park on Mystic Street have been outfitted with new playground equipment for our children. Our own D.P.W. removed all of the old equipment and the kids are already enjoying the new play areas. I have applied mitigation money received from a development in Methuen to fully fund all of this equipment. The total cost of the project was $81,000. Read the Tribune story here.

This is good stuff. I take my kids on “playground tours” where we drive to playgrounds around Methuen and play on each for an hour. The Veterans Park one was a bit run down, but now it sounds like I’ll have to see the new playground and maybe add the Shorty Degaspe to our next tour.
