Games canceled again tonight even though there has been no rain in 36 hours. There were no attempts to work on them yesterday to remove water so they could have a chance to dry out today.
I completely understand that weather is no one‘s fault, but we need to find a way to protect the Winslow baseball fields from rain. My family and many others have paid for the Bloomington junior league baseball Association season and we are now going on the third consecutive night of canceled games. Only field three appears to have standing water. Can you all please work to find a solution to maybe cover or tarp the infield so they do not get waterlogged and the games can be played. Thank you for your consideration.
There are two electronic game displays on the south side of the playground in the park. none of the buttons make any sound like they are supposed to and used to do.
one of the water fountains by the playground has a constant leak
Hi! I found a set of keys at RCA park. They are all smaller keys, like the kind that are used with padlocks.

It looks like there may be poison ivy growing along the limestone wall near the climbing web at the Lower Cascades playground, in an area where children are likely to come in contact with it.
Waterfountain leaking from under the dog watering section. Not sure if it is a drain issue or source issue
There are two very large and deep muddy puddles in the large dog park area at Switchyard. One is located by the large tree in the center of the park, and the other is located by the sitting area under the green awning. My dog recently got into the muddy water, ate and drank it, and became severely sick for several days. After speaking with several dog owners at the park, this has happened with their dogs too, so it is definitely a health hazard. It is very difficult to keep the dogs away from these areas. This does not seem to be a problem just after rainfall, but most of the time. I ask that they be filled with gravel or fenced off to allow for regrowth and to keep dogs away in the meantime. Thank you!
The woods between RCA park and summit elementary has an old barbed wire fence running through it. It should be removed because this wooded area is often a play destination for school and neighborhood children.
