MASON CITY – Upgrades at a Mason City park are underway at this time.

Wednesday afternoon, NorthIowaToday.com met with volunteer Chris Watts who explained how the Georgia Hanford Foundation continues to work towards improvements at the park.

“Today, River City Fence is replacing a large section of the backstop fencing at the ball diamond,” Watts said.

The fence replacement project has been on-going at the ball diamond at Georgia Hanford.  In 2011 River City Fence did another large section of the fence.

Watts said the fence replacement should be done Wednesday.  He is looking for volunteers to help put roofs on the dugouts as well.

Watts also said that a regulation-sized basketball court is going in next at the park.  It will replace the existing court that has one hoop.  “The new full-sized court will have six hoops,” Watts said.

Other improvements on the horizon include a new shelter house, likely to be located just south of the existing shelter house.

Watts said donations are need to keep the momentum going.

“All donations are appreciated and are tax deductible by making them out to the City of Mason City, EARMARKED Georgia Hanford project,” Watts said.
