Upgrades to the playground area at HT Custer Park, officially unveiled Friday, were desperately needed according to many in the community and in Alderman Evan Miller's Third Ward.  But there was a lot of thought put into the upgrades, and how ALL kids can use them.

Amy Wilson, a landscape architect with Peoria's The Farnsworth Group, helped the city with the upgrades, and talks about them with Will Stevenson on Galesburg's Evening News.
