There needs to be a discussion with the Indiana Bobcats about the appropriate use of city parks. They continually park their cars on the grass around the concessions area. To get there, they drive down the path that runs north/south along the field. This is the path that is used by families and kids for walking/biking and is adjacent to the playground. They also drive on the path from the south end of the Olcott parking lot heading towards to the concessions building. Again this path is used by families and kids. They need to be told that these paths are NOT roads. There is ample parking at Olcott and the middle school. There is no reason for them to be driving on the paths and tearing up the grass around the concessions area.
I am glad to see organizations using our parks. However please convey to them that they need follow the same rules as the rest of us. Every home game the Indiana Bobcats park on the grass next the concessions stand. They drive their cars down the north/south path that runs along the field to access the concessions area. They also drive up the path from the very south end of the Olcott parking lot toward the concessions. See attached pictures. I don't know if one of their vehicles hit the bench on that path, but the bench is now broken. These paths are right next to the playground and are regularly used by family and children. Please inform them that these are NOT roads. There is ample parking at Olcott and the middle school. There is no reason for them to be parking on the field next to the concessions. On rainy days (like Sat), they also damage the grass in and around the concessions area.
Bunch of cars parked up on the grass at Olcott park during a football game on Saturday evening. Ridiculous - there is abundant available parking. They'll leave and we in the community will be stuck with the mess.
Saturday, June 27, 8pm. Whatever teams are using the football fields tonight are parked up on the grass next to the shelter. Unreal. There is an available parking lot (has spots), in addition to the street leading into Olcott (totally empty) and the middle school lot.
