The town’s only public playground is getting ready to grow again with the upcoming addition of a children’s merry-go-round, paid for using a $3,600 donation from Machias Savings Bank.
Machias Town Manager Bill Kitchen, who has championed recreation area improvements for years, shared the news with the Machias Board of Selectmen April 13 at their regular bi-monthly meeting.
“Eventually we’ll put up a plaque to recognize all the [playground] donors,” said Kitchen.
