Councilwoman Bonner commented on the occasion: “Diamond in the Pines is an appropriate name for this jewel of a park. It’s a real fun place where so many families come to enjoy and play in a safe and comfortable environment. I thank the Parks Department for all they do to maintain and improve our parks and playgrounds, and I welcome all Brookhaven residents to stop by and enjoy this park or any one of our beautiful Town Parks.”
