SAN ANGELO, TX — A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held for the newest playground in San Angelo on Monday, Sept. 30, 2024.
Mountainview Park, 3031 Freeland Ave., is home to the new playground, which was funded through a grant secured by the Alcohol & Drug Awareness Center for the Concho Valley.
The $188,000 grant was specifically allocated to reduce stress and anxiety in the community following COVID-19, according to the City of San Angelo’s Parks and Recreation Director, Carl White, who spoke at the ceremony, along with Mayor Brenda Gunter.
The grant was split between two playgrounds, the first of which opened in April 2024 at Bell Park, 515 Lowrie Ave.
Mountainview Park was first developed in 1977 and sits a couple blocks from Houston Harte in a neighborhood in west San Angelo.
