I set up a slackline (a sort of portable tightrope) on the basketball goals at upper cascades park yesterday, january 11th in the afternoon. upon examination of my slack line setup, I realized i had set up the line wrong, in such a way that the only way it could be removed is to be cut. I had mulled over my decisions in this situation and decided to return the next day with a knife in order to cut the line down. I arrived today at around 4:00pm and discovered my slack line had been taken down and was nowhere in sight. I asked a few of the skaters who were nearby if they had seen anything. I got stories from two separate individuals stating that an older, bald/balding, man wearing a white tshirt and or black jacket. i would like to know if the man mentioned was a parks employee, or if it was just some guy who stole my 150$ slack line. a speedy response would be greatly appreciated as if it wasn't a parks employee, i will be contacting the police.

Good morning. I have a couple questions on the dog park. How high is the fence? I know that it says that we should unleash the dogs as soon as we get in through the gate but what if we have a new dog that we are not too confident in their recall just yet? Can I keep her on a long lead for some, if not all, of the time? Thanks. Matt Crouse

In today's H-T Hotline section quotes from Mick Renneisen indicate you can fish at Weimer Lake in the Wapehani Mountain Bike Park. Is this correct and do you need an Indiana fishing license to do so?

My family was at Bryan Pool on Sunday afternoon at 2:00pm. After an hour of swimming the children were made to leave the pool for adult swim. Twenty minutes is a very long time for a child and since we could only stay for two hours it really limited our swimtime. I overheard comments from several adults that were also unaware of the adult swim rule. Additionally, two young children came in and unaware of your policy stepped into the pool only to be yelled at by the lifeguard. The girls were so embarrassed they ran to their mothers in tears. What is the puropse of this extended time out? There were only a handful of adults in the pool and most felt bad that their children couldn't join them.

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

Schmaltz Farm Park's playground area could use some attention (grass and weeds in playground have taken over). It looks like it hasn't been tended to in a while. Thanks for your help! Travis Thickstun tthickstun@atc.in.gov
