A new park is officially open in Coffeyville.
Over the weekend, a ribbon cutting was held for Sycamore Park on west 1st Street in Coffeyville. Parks Board Member Marci Roberts says the park has technically been around for a while but didn't have many amenities.
Sycamore Park features several playgrounds for different ages, an exercise area for anyone 13 and up, and several picnic pavilions. Members of the Coffeyville Chamber and City Commission were on hand Saturday in addition to the Daylight Defenders Lions Club grilling hot dogs. Attendees were also able to view the plans for North Park, which is the next park to be renovated with money from the city's half-cent sales tax.
