Dedham Savings Community Foundation Supports Barnard Place Park

The Dedham Savings Community Foundation has donated $5,ooo to Barnard Place Park.  This grant will be used toward the development of a new public park in South Boston.  The park will feature a landscaped green space in a densely populated part of the city, offering the local community a haven for relaxation. The proposed bocce court will provide space for social outdoor recreation. A partnership with Edgerley Family South Boston Club will also bring urban gardening programs for their pre-teen members at the park.
