Garst Mill Playground receives makeover after 25 years

ROANOKE (WSLS 10) - Garst Mill Park opened on Thursday with a new playground.

This comes after the previous equipment had served the park for about 25 years.

The new playground features five slides, multiple climbing bridges and several enhancements, like bongos and a hand cycler.

The Garst Mill Playground Replacement project was selected as part of this year's maintenance budget made to ensure long-term protection of community assets.
