A prefabricated playground equipment kit was purchased with a $14,000 grant from the Washington Interagency Committee for Outdoor Recreation. Some of the grant money also will go toward equipment and improvements at Beachview Park.

The city needed to match the state grant with cash and donations of labor and equipment. In addition to their labor, the Rotary donated $2,000 to the Foster Park.
