The City of Crossville has received a sizeable check to begin renovations on a downtown recreational park. The City Council began looking at upgrading Garrison Park earlier this year. Many of the park’s facilities, such as restrooms, have needed improvements for years. A grant was recently awarded by the local Parks and Recreation fund and will be applied to the facility upgrades which include a splash pad for children.
