KENLY, N.C. – Glendale Chapel Recreation, at 1600 Glendale Road, celebrated the grand opening of its new multi-use field May 3, welcoming the community with four t-ball games on the new field.

The project was made possible through the Open Spaces Grant provided by Johnston County in 2023 and 2025. Glendale Chapel Recreation thanked the county for its continued support and commitment to expanding recreational opportunities in the community.
