The City of Jackson is inviting residents to celebrate the completion of a new playground at the Martin Luther King Jr. Recreation Center during a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Thursday, Sept. 10.
The ceremony will take place at 11:30 a.m. at the MLK Center, 1107 Adrian Street.
The new playground was funded through a grant from the State of Michigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Council of Community Foundations. The City of Jackson also worked closely with Monica Moser and the Jackson Community Foundation to help bring the project to life.
Projects like this show what is possible when local and state partners work together to invest in children, families, and neighborhoods.
“This playground is an investment in the children and families who use the MLK Center every day. We are grateful for the partners who helped make this possible and excited to celebrate a new space for play, connection, and community for all ages,” said City of Jackson Director of Parks, Recreation, Cemeteries, and Grounds Kelli Hoover.
The upgrade includes a paved connection to the MLK Equality Trail, making it easier for the community to walk, bike, and stay active together. The new playground adds to ongoing efforts to improve parks and recreation spaces throughout Jackson and strengthen neighborhood amenities that support quality of life for residents.
The City of Jackson thanks the State of Michigan Department of Natural Resources, the Michigan Council of Community Foundations, Monica Moser, and the Jackson Community Foundation for their support of the project.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony is free and open to the public.
