The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission received a $280,000 Project Grant from the National Park Service's Outdoor Recreation Acquisition, Development and Planning program (CFDA 15.916) to sub-grant to the City of Chadron, Nebraska for improvements to the War Memorial Park. The grant will fund the replacement of aging playground equipment with new structures targeted to different age groups, the conversion of unused tennis courts to four new concrete pickleball courts with fencing and landscaping, and the addition of new sidewalks for accessibility. The project aims to modernize the heavily used park's recreational facilities and provide inclusive offerings for the community, including for use by local schools. This grant award is part of the National Park Service's ongoing efforts to support state and local governments in acquiring, developing, and improving outdoor recreation areas and amenities through the Land and Water Conservation Fund State Assistance Program.
