After Families Used Owls Head Park, Kayla Santossuosso Announced It Will Open April 9th
Owls Head Park has been ready for awhile. Children and teens have been sneaking in and playing afterschool for weeks.
This weekend, a school group celebrated and unofficially opened the park. See here:
After people complained about the park being used, Councilwoman Kayla Santosuosso announced on Wednesday, April 8th that the park will open on Thursday, April 9th.
Owl’s Head Park wasn’t maintained, so this is a huge improvement:
Parents were disappointed that there no longer is a tire swing and the children’s water play section is a lot smaller. Also missing is the boat that the children asked for at the planning meeting.
