The City has been looking to enhance the South Side Park in order to meet the needs of the community. The South Side Park currently has soccer fields and football fields, and these fields are used for our High School boys and girls soccer teams and Pee-Wee football teams. The total estimated project for Phase 1 is approximately $3,145,700 and includes:
Access Road Trail-head and Trail
Pedestrian Bridges Parking Lots
Stand-alone restroom Dog Park (Closed Dec-March Weather Permitting)
Butterfly Garden Lighting
Amphitheater (Bands and Concerts) Concession/Restroom Building
The City is hopeful in securing $2,566,312.50 in grant funding through the State of Ohio, and has already secured $2,374,038 of that. If you would like to contribute to the South Side Park, please donate to the Tuscora Park Foundation. The Tuscora Park Foundation is a 501c3.
