Background:
Grove Park is located at 6300 SE 152 Street Hawthorne, FL 32640 and is halfway between Newnans Lake and the center of Hawthorne. It serves the Grove community as well as the Rochelle community. It is also only a quarter of a mile from the Gainesville Hawthorne State Trail. Grove Park currently offers a baseball field, a basketball court, a pavilion with tables and grills and a dirt parking lot.
The walkway at Grove Park is being upgraded from crushed concrete to a poured concrete path that will provide access from the parking lot to the existing pavilion and new play area due to recent Florida ADA code changes.
