Treehouse opens after repairs
SCRANTON - The Wenzel Treehouse at Nay Aug Park officially reopened Saturday at noon after a monthlong repair project, Scranton Parks and Recreation Director Mark Dougher said.
The treehouse, which opened in 2007, received new wooden 2-by-4 handrails after officials discovered in September that a roughly 6-foot section of wooden railing was missing. The old handrail appeared to have broken from wear and tear, not vandalism, officials have said.
The $1,000 project was completed by the city Department of Parks and Recreation and was paid for through the city recreation authority's general fund.
