A local group is hoping to get support to build a new park in Nanty Glo.

The Nanty Glo Beautification committee is trying to get a grant that would pave the way for a park to be built next to the public library.
 
However, before they can move forward toward getting the grant worth more than $27,000, they need the go ahead from the borough council. 
 
If the council backs the plan, the group hopes to use the funds to build a new gazebo, add benches and even plaques honoring the memories of lost loved ones in the community.
