Hi, Seven Oaks Classical Charter School is having a pig roast and silent auction at Bryan Park in June for a fundraiser. I looked through the rules and regs but didn't see anything about having a band/music. *Are those who rent a space at the park allowed to have a music band? Please let me know. Thanks, Linda
The condition of Miller Shower park is getting worse day by day. It was clean and beautiful last fall but now it is covered with water plants and getting worse. Is it due to lack of funds that there is not maintenance?
Dear Ms. Granger, I am writing to you again this year about the "encampment" of vagrants near Cascades Park in your council district. Located near the corner of N. College and Old 37 it is a threat to the health and safety of our community. Children play in the water downstream from this filth. Thank goodness the disabled child recently lost in Cascades did not wander into this place. The fact that this "encampment" is on a parcel of land owned by the state is hardly an excuse to allow it to exist so close to a city park frequented by families with children. Please do something about this. Cordially, Ron Clees 2221 Browncliff Lane Bloomington IN 47408
My question is about the lack of mowing in the middle of Sherwood Oaks Park. Is the plan for this park to make the old football field into woods? The trees in there are several years old now and beginning to shade the "trail" around the park. Shoudn't someone bush-hog this part of the park? One of the things I have always enjoyed about this park is the black raspberries that grow on the western side of the old field. The new trees in the middle are starting to shade this area, and soon those berries will fade away, as they prefer "edges" with sun to the east of them. The same sort of thing is happening in Olcott park, so I am guessing that this is part of your plan, but if it is not a real plan, can someone come and cut all that brush down? Thanks! Kim
I wanted to comment on the no pet rule in your park. We came here for 16 u nationals( which where run very nicely) and we brought our pet. I understand the no pet policy,but when you host an event like this, it is OK to make exceptions. Most pets that travel 3-4 hours are not going to be a problem. When you in vite people into your community, you need to open up the hospitality a little. The hotel we stayed at had a no pet policy, but allowed us to keep our 100# St Benard pup in our room at no additional charge. ( they made an exception). I'm just disappointed I had to sit beyond the outfield fences
Broken glass by the stone blocks on the north side of the tot playground at Bryan Park. Large pieces were picked up, but there are still small shards on the sidewalk between the large stones (just northeast of the bee riding toy, right in front of the stone block the farthest to the west).
I just want to thank you for your prompt care at the Highland Village Park today. Just this morning I submitted a request about a hornet's nest in the park that I was afraid jeopardized the children, as it was right next to the playground. I just went over to the park this evening and saw that the nest had been removed. Thank you!! Great job!
Big swings on lower BRYAN park playground. The swing seats are too slick. Park is in great shape and generally well tended but granddaughter slid out of Swing unexpectedly and accidentally and flew backward and landed on her side. Fortunately the thick mulch layer cushioned her landing. Complaining of pain in lower abdomen.
I have been trying to rent a Kayak at the Lake Griffy boathouse for 2 weekends now. Tomorrow will be the 3rd. Apparently they only have 3 kayaks to rent out in the whole place. There were also very few canoes to rent because several of them were damaged. Who is in charge of that place? I used to go all the time before the lake was drained and fixed, but now that it's back, it seems like the place is falling apart. Will they ever be getting more Kayaks? I don't think it's unreasonable to want to go out there with my girlfriend and not have to wait 4 hours for the people ahead of us to finish.
I was wondering what happened at RCA Park? It looks barren without all the undergrowth near the large shelter.
