We've seen a lot of cool upgrades and renovations at Grand Rapids-area parks thanks to a voter-approved millage. The millage allows continued investment in City parks. It will provide approximately $5 million each year for repair, maintenance, and new improvements to parks, pools, and playgrounds.
The latest park to get a makeover? Cherry Park!
Cherry Park is located at 725 Cherry St. SE.
Back in 2015 renovations to Cherry Park included adding a Splash pad, community event space, restroom renovations, bike racks, seating, and site amenities.
Now its got sport courts!
A new pickleball court, tennis court, and basketball court have been installed at Cherry Park.
The East Hills Council of Neighbors will be celebrating with a grand opening event open to the public Thursday, September 14, 2023 at 6:00p.m.
Here's the schedule:
- 6:00p.m. – Guests arrive
- 6:30p.m. – Ceremony begins
- 6:40p.m. – Ribbon Cutting
- 6:45p.m. – Enjoy the new courts, hot dogs, yard games and music!
- 8:00p.m. – Conclusion
