8. Lacrosse Field Dedication
The City of Bryant would like to dedicate the field at Alcoa 40 Park to be named the Campbell Lacrosse Field, home of Salt County Lacrosse. Salt County Lacrosse, along with Campbell Automotive has contributed over $25,000 and over 200 volunteer hours since 2023 on the field and this would make Bryant the home of the first dedicated Lacrosse field in the state of Arkansas.
9. ArDOT TAP Grant
The City of Bryant would like to apply for the ArDOT TAP Grant to assist with funding the lighting of sidewalks at Bishop Park. The lack of lighting in Bishop Park is currently a major safety concern and adding lighting to these sidewalks would assist substantially.
