Last March
funding was announced for the Parkes Observatory
from the NSW Regional Tourism Activation Fund.
One of the items in the package was the construction
of a new spaced-themed playground at the Visitor Centre.
The all-accessible playground was opened last month
and has proved to be very popular with visitors.
The timing was perfect it meant the facilities
were available both for travellers over the Christmas/New Year
period, and also the influx of visitors for the Elvis Festival.
