The tennis courts on Moore’s Pike by the Renwick trail are missing a net. It needs to be replaced ASAP as this is an active court that gets used regularly
The homeless camp that lives on the pickle ball courts are smoking and their stuff is over a large portion of the out of bounds section, along with their bikes. The pickle ball courts are for playing pickle ball, and I'm getting tired of having to navigate their stuff.
Can you clarify if smoking is allowed at the new switchyard park? We were there last night to play Bocce, and a large group was congregating (ant not playing Bocce) on the courts, smoking. There was another group smoking in the shelter near the splash pad. If smoking is not allowed, will there be any enforcement?
I was playing disc golf on the Rogers-Binford disc golf course on July 10 and ran into mountain bikers who are converting the southeast corner of Rogers-Binford property into a mountain bike course. They've trampled several new paths through the foliage and created jumps and berms along the public path for the disc golf course. I'm concerned that mountain biking and jumping and disc golf don't necessarily go together. Is mountain biking and jumping on Rogers-Binford property a city installation? Are pedestrians and disc golf players still allowed in the area? Thank you for your response.

Safety hazard: There is Exposed barbed wire on the edge of the playing fields. Along the eastern edge where the fields meet the woods, there are several lines of barbed wire. They have been there for decades, but I recently saw a person get cut from them when they went into the edge of the woods to retrieve a ball. It is particularly dangerous starting at the press box and walking north along the woods - about 4 feet in from the playing fields. In some areas, it is a single piece of barb wire about 3 feet off the ground – easy to run into. In other areas (behind one set of bleachers) there is more of it in coils on the ground. Towards the northern edge where the field meets the woods, it is farther into the woods and it is a fence. I think it would be in the City’s and the community‘s best interest to remove this to avoid further injury. I suggest staff scan the entire line to make sure they get it all and don’t miss the pieces that are hidden by growth. These are the coordinates for a section that is on the ground and hard to see; 39.12601° N, 86.50944° W (In one photo I took of the barbed wire it is almost impossible to see because it blends in with the sticks.)
Hi Park & Recs team! I wanted to file a complaint regarding trash from the softball teams that play at the Twin Lakes ball field. I live in the apartments behind those woods and often walk through that area. I think having the teams play there is great and I love watching them! However, after a night of playing the park is completely trashed with beer cars/boxes, wrappers and fast food bags. I love that they are having such a good time when they play but there are trash cans on the property that they are clearly not using and just basically making the area dirty for the rest of us. The picture attached is just a small amount I saw this morning, let alone the many other times throughout the summer that this has happened in and around the parking lot as well as the trails. Could we provide more trash cans for them? Or perhaps talk to the team captains about making an announcement. If that doesn't work and they can't clean up after themselves maybe sending a patrol officer to assist with cracking down on the tailgating. I would imagine it's illegal to drink alcohol in a public park but I'm not positive on the laws. Thanks so much for your help!
