MIDDLEBURGH - Solar picnic tables and horse-shoe pits are coming soon to Badgely Park in Middleburgh.
The village has used about $34,000 leftover a SEEC grant for four solar-powered picnic tables for the park, located across from the former town hall. The benches have been ordered and will be cream-colored. The company has started the construction and the village will get a design soon, Trustee Amanda Fernandez told village board members Monday. When completed, there will be four solar picnic tables in the park with charging stations to accompany the free village WiFi.
Middleburgh Rotary members dug the pits for the horseshoes last year The wood surrounding the pits needs to be completed this year. Hopefully, the pits will be completed soon.
In December, Trustee Fernandez reported that the village was not selected for a grant for up to $50,000 to pay for improvements for the park. Trustee Fernandez told board members that the village was not selected but urged to reapply in the future. Grants are awarded every quarter she said. She noted that more than 800 grant applications were submitted.
