FNB Bank donates to Murray's Central Park renovation project

FNB Bank donated to the City of Murray Wednesday to assist with several Central Park improvements.

The $100,000 donation brings Murray another step closer to raising the necessary funds to renovate the Central Park swimming pool and cover various other park improvements.

As part of the investment, FNB will be naming the facilities at Chestnut Park as the FNB Bank Sports Complex.

The pool has been closed since 2019 due to a lack of funding to cover the renovations. Officials anticipate the necessary repairs will cost around $1 million. Other interested investors are encouraged to call the park office at 270-762-0325.

“The Central Park pool is important for the Murray-Calloway County community. It has provided years of family fun and was where many children learned to swim through Red Cross lessons.  The pool closing has left a void in our town for several years now.” stated Sally Hopkins, FNB President, and CEO.  “We are proud to be a part of this very important community project to get the pool back up and running. The restoration of the pool will make a positive impact for years to come.”
