Grove Rotary Centennial Park Dedicated

The Grove Rotary Centennial Park, five years in the making, was officially dedicated Saturday morning. The park, at Shundi and 13th, is estimated to have cost more than $250,000 with Grove Rotarians donating many thousands of dollars and man hours. Pictured left to right, are some of the Rotary Presidents who served during the development and construction: Paul Allsup, Kay Lyn Beauchamp, Charlie Wallace, Dr. Michael Foster, Glenn Sharp, and assistant district governor Bob Daggett. Not pictured is Bob Brogden. The park contains a water feature, restrooms, play areas, gyms, pavillion and basketball court. The city, Grand Gateway, Simmons Foods, local banks and Rotarians contributed funds to build the park.
