The city of Hartford says it got a $20,000 grant for improvements at one of three city parks.
Mayor Pedro E. Segarra announced Thursday the grant is through a collaboration between the National Recreation and Park Association, The Walt Disney Co. and its ABC and ESPN networks.
It will fund one of three proposed park projects that residents will get to choose, Segarra said. They have until April 30 to vote at NRPA.org/BeInspired for the following:
- Baseball batting and pitching cages at Keney Park and Thomas J. Hyland Memorial Park;
- New soccer goal posts and nets for two public soccer fields at Colt Park;
- Refurbishing a basketball court at Keney Park.
