Ribbon Is Cut To Reopen The Newly Rebuilt Ascend Community Park
January 19, 2023
After a brief rain delay, the ribbon was cut Wednesday morning to reopen the renovated Ascend Community Park.
Ascend Performance Materials CEO Phil McDivitt was on hand to offer remarks and congratulate the teams from Ascend and Turner Industries who led the effort to restore the park after extensive damage from Hurricane Sally.
“Parks are about family,” said McDivitt. “For 70 years, our Pensacola site has employed fathers and mothers, their children and now grandchildren in this community, so Ascend is also about family. We’re happy to be able to welcome the community and their families to the park once again.”
The park, located at 3098 Old Chemstrand Road in Cantonment, is now open from sunrise to sunset daily.

@ Ben H. : Just Chuck being chuck
I don’t see your safety gloves
So excited to finally be able to take my great grand kids there. We took our grand kids there 20 years ago, now their children will have the same happy experience. Thank you Ascend.
