The Town of Haughton is getting ready to have its own place to play.
The Bossier Parish town currently doesn't have its own park, but six acres of land has been recently acquired for a community green space, which will be named Joe Delaney Memorial Park, after a Haughton hero...

He died in 1983 while trying to save three kids from drowning while visiting a park in Monroe. Years ago, the town built a park to honor the athlete, but town leaders said it was too small and sold it to the school board. Alexander hopes the new park will be different.
