Members of the Gate City Civitan Club and officials from the Town of Gate City have long been working toward the development of an expanded recreational area at the Town’s Grogan Park. There have been numerous set backs along the way – most notably, a claim of ownership of not only the expansion area but  a great deal of the existing park – but now, with grants, donations and funding from the state, the Scott County School Board, the Upper Tennessee River Roundtable, Eastman Credit Union, private individuals, and the Gate City Civitan Club, ground breaking on two projects at the expansion area are being held next week.

There will be a Check Presentation from Gate City Civitan Club to the Town of Gate City for $34,000 for the walking trail at Grogan Park at 5 p.m. Tuesday, December 9 at Gate City Town Hall.

Groundbreaking
for the Civitan Walking Trail at Grogan Park and the Rain Garden at Grogan Park will be held Wednesday, December 10 at 10 a.m. Contractors for both projects will be on hand.

The Walking Trail project will also include a new comfort station near the Gazebo, and additional parking near the expansion area.

The Rain Garden is a landscaped water runoff management project that will showcase principles that can be adapted for use at the home.
