SAN ANGELO, Texas — After an eight-month closure for renovations, San Angelo's Unidad Park, 3245 Vista del Arroyo Drive, will officially reopen to the public at 6:30 p.m. Friday, June 24.
The park underwent a complete playground replacement, but still has many similar items as the original playground, including a large play set for children ages 5-12, a smaller play set for ages 2-5, a large swing set, the original “Karl’s Fort” and a basketball toss funnel.
New elements include a seesaw and merry-go-round with wheelchair access, two long track rides, a washer pitching area and more.
The project was funded by a grant from the San Angelo Area Health Foundation, 4B half-cent sales tax revenue dedicated to park improvements and donations from private citizens primarily received through San Angelo Area Foundation’s “San Angelo Gives” fundraising event.
