📢 Great News for Chaplin! 📢

The Town of Chaplin is pleased to announce that we have been awarded $85,993 in state funding for the Helen Garrison Open Space Project.
The Garrison property on South Bear Hill was acquired by the town a number of years ago as open space. It borders additional town-owned land along the Natchaug River, which connects to state property leading to Diana’s Pool.
This grant will support interconnecting the three parcels with trails, creating more usable open space to and along the river, along with parking improvements at the South Bear Hill entrance.
We extend our thanks to everyone who helped move this project forward and look forward to sharing more updates as work progresses.
