Visitors to the National Park in Georgetown may have noticed the recent appearance of benches around the jogging trail. These seats are part of the “Ad-A-Bench” drive being spearheaded by the Natural Resources and Environment Ministry’s Protected Areas Commission and Guyenterprise, with the aim of restoring public seating in the park.
The new benches are designed to facilitate the placement of advertisements by sponsors, as well as provide much-needed public seating around the park.
The drive is part of the Three Parks Initiative, which aims to rehabilitate and upgrade the National Park, the Botanical Gardens and the Zoological Park.
The commission is inviting businesses, individuals and other interested groups to sponsor these benches as a means of advertising their companies or causes, while enhancing the facilities at the park.
For further information, please contact the commission on telephone numbers 226-7974, 225-8016, or the Guyenterprise office on 226-9874.
