Riverside Rebuild, a project aimed at funding and constructing a new Riverside Park Playground in La Grande, is making remarkable progress as the deadline for crucial grant applications looms. Since its fundraising kickoff in November 2023, the project has garnered $197,275 in collected donations, with an additional $19,820 pledged but not yet received. This brings the potential total to $217,095. Once the final amount is secured, La Grande Parks and Recreation will apply for matching grants to cover the remaining balance necessary.
