(Conway, PA) Two parks in Conway will now be expected to get some updates thanks to a $10,000 Thriving Communities Grant courtesy of Norfolk Southern. The borough of Conway announced in September that they received this money and they will use these funds for three purposes: the building of a new pavilion at Buttermore Park, the installation of two new picnic tables at the Conway Borough Building Park and during next spring, the refreshing of the mulch at both parks. According to Norfolk Southern, the Thriving Communities Grant contributes to projects and programs in Norfolk Southern’s operating area that help communities with long-term recovery assistance, offer support for mental health needs, preserve community history and culture and beautify its public spaces.
