Brian Ramsey, City of Beloit’s Director of Parks and Leisure Services, invites the general public to attend a Neighborhood Playground Meeting regarding new playground equipment scheduled for installation later this fall in Hope Park. Hope Park is located on the northwest corner of Bellevue Avenue and Wisconsin Avenue in the City of Beloit. However, this Neighborhood Playground Meeting will be held at 6:30pm on Wednesday evening, August 30, 2017 at the Rotary River Center in Riverside Park located at 1160 Riverside Drive in Beloit.
Two (2) separate playground proposals will be presented and the purpose of this meeting is to allow residents who reside within the area of Hope Park to select the new playground equipment that they prefer to have installed in their neighborhood park. The Parks and Leisure Services Division has already completed a preliminary review of 12 proposals from seven (7) separate playground vendors and has completed a comprehensive evaluation process of each proposal in selecting the top two (2) designs. The two (2) final designs will be presented at the Neighborhood Playground Meeting on Wednesday evening, where Lee Recreation, representing Playworld Systems and representatives from Little Tikes Commercial Playgrounds will be available to respond to any questions regarding their proposed playgrounds. At the conclusion of the presentations, residents in attendance will have the opportunity to cast their vote for the playground that they would ultimately like to see purchased and installed in Hope Park. This is an event for the entire family to attend, and let your kids select the new playground they want to play on.
