I sent this to mcdevitp@bloomington.in.gov, sternerm@bloomington.in.gov, eadsd@bloomington.in.gov, barrickb@bloomington.in.gov today, but I wanted to submit it here too so that it's entered into the uReport records and doesn't get lost. This is in regard to the hole in the turf field at the Twin Lakes Recreation Center, where the turf has worn through to the concrete and almost caused some serious injuries to our league players on Sunday, February 19th. Our league ends after March 5th and I'm worried someone will get seriously hurt between now and then unless something is done to cover or patch that spot on the field during that time. Hi Paula, Rebecca, Mark, and Daren, Thank you for your quick response. I do appreciate that you are inquiring to see if the work can be moved up to spring break week (March 13). However, this doesn't answer my question about what they are going to do to make the field safe to play on in the two weeks before that time. We still have to play on the field during those two weeks (unless of course Twin Lakes would like to refund us the money for those days and reschedule our field time - something that would need to be discussed with the leagues). Is there anything Twin Lakes can do to patch or cover that spot in the immediate term until the repairs can be made? We just don't want anyone to get hurt, and I know of course you must have the same concern. Best regards, Sarah Mosier 765-516-4862 s.e.mosier1@gmail.com

There have been numerous twisted ankles and slips due to the poorly patched or non existent turf on the indoor turf fields at Twin Lakes Rec Center. Please find a quick fix while leagues are still occuring, and ideally a whole refitting of the field between leagues, it is about time for that after years of poor-quality patches.

Every Saturday, a group of basketball players bring in an amplifier to the gym and blast music which contains offensive language. Several people have complained to front desk personnel, asking them to tell the players to turn the music down, which can be heard everywhere on the main floor of the facility. Unfortunately, no TLRC facility staff members have been able to do anything about this issue. Children are subjected to songs which include the words "f*ck" "rape" "n*gger" etc. Because nothing had been done about it by the staff, someone approached a member of the basketball group and politely asked them if they could turn the music down. A member of the group verbally assaulted and intimidated the person causing the person to leave the facility because they were so upset and felt threatened by the response of the basketball player. I would like to ask if a rule could be added to the facility that no one is to play personal music that can be heard by others while inside the TLRC. Thank you for your consideration of this request. I have been a member for several years and know people who use the TLRC frequently. When I am there on Saturdays, many people complain but no one says anything for fear of retaliation or lack of action by staff. Thank you very much for your consideration of our request.

The idea that Bloomington does not allow basketball or turf rentals at the TLRC is preposterous at this point in the pandemic. The positive case numbers have continued to drop, Monroe County has the lowest positive rate in the entire state, and TLRC has already shown they can operate safely. There is no reason at this point to continually take away opportunities from youth sports in Bloomington. It is long overdue that someone like John Turnbull is held accountable to create opportunities for youth sports instead of continually take them away and claim that "participation numbers are down" that is a direct reflection of the lack of initiative in his department and it starts at the top.

Around 50 people crowded in facility and no masks were present. We asked staff about mandate and sign on door and they said they couldn’t do anything. So, unfortunately we were following the rules and our children had to miss out because of no one wearing masks. Why is this even a mandate if no one enforces it?

The portalet by the park needs emptying, and there's no hand sanitizer. Also there's a large hole in the side.
