In 2008, SVHOA will further improve Edgewater Park. Improvements will include a new swing set, we are looking at both 4-swing and 6-swing sets. The hope is to add the maximum number of swings that space will allow. Also, the improved park will include an Aztec Climber. Finally, a 4-Way Spring Rocker has been donated to Southern Village and will be installed, location is still in the works right now. The attachment below shows pictures of the swings, climber and rockers (before renovation). The timing of improvements will be later this year, most likely summer. We will publish more information as it becomes available. If you have any questions please e-mail, manager@southernvillage.org.
