CRIDERSVILLE, OH (WLIO) - It was a big day in Cridersville as phase two of the Legacy Park project got its focal point.

The 720-square-foot building will now provide the park with restrooms and a multi-use space for community events.
It was three-parts structure and two-parts measuring to make one new shelter house at Legacy Park in the village of Cridersville. The 720-square-foot building will now provide the park with restrooms and a multi-use space for community events. The prefab concrete structure from Norwalk Concrete Industries was lifted by a crane and placed into position. The shelter house was made possible by a $300,000 grant from the state of Ohio's biennial capital budget in 2022.

An additional covered patio will be built onto the front of the building, providing some shaded area with picnic tables.
"Well, phase 2 includes the big project right here, which is the shelter house and the picnic area that we're going to put here at the park. We've been working on this for well over a year now, and we're finally getting to the end of it. It's an exciting thing for the community. It gives them a place that they can have some events and so on. I think this is going to be a wonderful addition to the village and to the park program here," said Mayor Rick Walls, Village of Cridersville.
