County hosts ribbon cutting at Sawnee Mountain Park

FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. – A long-awaited ribbon cutting ceremony took place Wednesday at Sawnee Mountain Park, 3995 Watson Road.

The ceremony showcased Improvements to the park  to include baseball/softball complex improvements, a new inclusive playground, refurbished tennis courts and updates to the concession stand and restrooms.

The parking lot was also seal coated and restriped. A new pavilion, also a part of the renovation project, is expected to be installed later.

District 1 Commissioner Molly Cooper said, “This is a growing area here in west Forsyth, so providing an update to this already great park made perfect sense to give even more recreation opportunities.”

Most amenities at the park closed for renovations on May 10 and are now open to the public.
