The Salem Parks Department applied for a $1,000 Community Service Grant through the Salem Elks Lodge #305 offered via the Ohio Elks Association. The Parks Dept. proposed buying Adirondack chairs and side tables for the community swimming pool at Centennial Park.

Salem Lodge submitted the paperwork to the state CSG Chairman in May. We were informed in June the Salem Parks Dept has been chosen to receive 1 of the 4 grants available in the NE District.
