The Village of South Range recently refurbished the playground on 7th Street in October. The ribbon cutting for the South Range Community Park took place on Oct. 28, 2019. The Village of South Range Council voted to dedicate the playground to the South Range resident Duane Pangrazzi for his community service to the town.

In a letter to village residents, village president Justin Marier wrote, “I know that Mr. Pangrazzi was thankful for the honor, but we are also very thankful and honored to have him in our community.”
