Bramwell plans new children’s park ceremony and bulldozing
A ceremony at Bramwell Town Hall marked the transfer of the property deed to the town for a future children’s playground. A Green Valley Excavating bulldozer began clearing a shell behind the town hall, clearing debris and preparing the site for a playground with a picnic area and handicap access. The project is funded by a $5,000 Governor’s Community Participation Grant and supported by the Bramwell Foundation, with initial site work expected to cost about $3,500 depending on weather and conditions.
