Hope Marland Park.
FAMILIES in Queanbeyan and surrounds have new facilities to enjoy this holiday season with the renowned Hope Marland Park in Queanbeyan getting a complete refurbishment.
December 10 saw the upgraded park unveiled by Member for Monaro John Barilaro, Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional Council Mayor Tim Overall and the family of Hope Marland.
The park, which has been a go-to spot for families in Queanbeyan for decades, received $144,500 from the NSW government’s “Everyone Can Play Grant” program which was matched dollar-for-dollar by QPRC.
It’s now been installed with new and safer play equipment for children to enjoy.
“It is wonderful to see the finished product in this beautiful part of Queanbeyan. Our local families and children deserve a space like this, where they can come together, have fun and put the worries of this year behind them,” Mr Barilaro said.
