The Borough Police Department will be starting a fund raising project to place new playground equipment at Bodine Park. It is the goal of the Police Department to be able to provide playground equipment that will be enjoyable and suitable for children of all ages. The type of playground equipment being considered is built of durable all weather material and would last many years and will be available to provide enjoyment to each family in the Hughesville area.
