The length of the asphalt path around Bryan Park is posted on a sign. Could the length of the path that bisects the Park be measured and posted too? Thanks!

I am delighted that the two new boardwalks have traction strips. I hope that this one, on the central path, near the rest rooms, will get the strips soon. THIS is the slippery one where I fell and injured my wrist. In a cast and brace for about two months. I uReported all three boardwalks. In response this one was power-washed and I was assured more would be done when Spring came. I hope this report goes through---lately they haven't.
Tree on north side of Bryan Park, just north of the asphalt path. Misidentified as Ohio Buckeye (Aesculus glabra). It is red horse chestnut (Aesculus x carnea). Buckeye (Aesculus glabra) has pale yellowish flowers. Red buckeye (Aesculus pavia) has bright red flowers. Red horse-chestnut (Aesculus x carnea) has (bright) pink flowers.
Bryan Park boardwalks are slippery when wet or frosty. I fell and hurt my wrist on the old one, near the rest rooms. I'll be in a cast for at least a month. Please consider treating the boardwalks to reduce the risk. Thanks!

Last February we reached out and requested that Parks clear several downed trees along the hiking trail behind Twin Lakes for our run group route. Parks came out within a couple days and cleared all of the downed trees including one huge one. I don't think I sent anything at the time but just wanted to give everyone a huge thank you for doing that for us - it helped so much. Everyone in our run group really appreciated the responsiveness and efforts from parks staff. Thank you so much!
Bryan Park, north side of Sheridan Creek not far from the basketball courts. Area has been gradually eroding and needs remediation. Top photo faxes east. Lower left looks south; lower right looks north.
These the leaf-filled holes in Bryan Park. In the area where, I was told, and underground stream flows and then feeds into Sheridan Creek. I thought they might be burrowing crawdads holes. Someone else (see photo comment) suggests broken drainage tile. Was that area ever drained and tiled? In either case, can anything be done?
In Bryan Park: Large amount of broken glass at the northwest end of the stream that feeds Sheridan Creek. Sunday afternoon March 1.
Will Bryan Park and Mills Pools be open this summer?
