To whom it may concern, Hello, My name is John Rodriguez. I'm a student from Mount Pleasant High School in Northeast Texas. For our Engineering Program, a couple of students and I, have been aiming to place a concrete slides in one of our local parks. We've contacted a manufacturer and asked for a list of previous customers who own one similar to the one we are considering. Thus I am here with an inquiry. I was wondering if you could give me a direct contact (Email or Phone Number), to someone in the parks department or someone who would know information, pertaining to your concrete slide, particularly things like maintenance and operation. We are compiling a list of comments and reviews for the embankment concrete slide so we can present it to our city for better consideration from them. We would greatly appreciate your assistance Sincerely, John G. Rodriguez

I'd like to address that there is severe mold issues on the pickleball and tennis courts at RCA park. The black mildew/mold issue has caused numerous instances with pickleball play and tennis play becoming a safety issue due to how slippery the surface get's. Many people have been slipping lately because the mold creates a very slippery surface. I'd like to suggest and request that someone comes to take a look at the issues near the back of the courts towards the woods. It would be greatly appreciated if the courts could be pressure washed off and the mold removed. Please feel free to contact me via my email provided for any further questions or dispositions. Thank you!

The lights on the tennis courts at Bryan Park do not seem to be working, and when I went tonight to play at 9pm I also saw that one of the large bulbs from one of the lights had fallen and shattered on the ground. Can you please let me know when/if the lights will be in working condition tomorrow night? I would like to take advantage of the tennis courts in the evenings. Thanks so much!

There is a dead deer inside the SW baseball field (the one closest to Winslow and S. Highland). It is in far left field, near the fence. Maybe it jumped the fence and didn't make it. It probably should be removed ASAP.

The website states there is a sand volleyball court at the Southeast Park. I went there yesterday and couldn't find it. Can you send me a picture and/or the location of the court. And can you provide me with a current list of volleyball courts in Bloomington. Thanks.

The same group of people is claiming and staying in the gazebo at the Building and Trades park every single day. They are there from open to close, sometimes sleeping on the ground as if it is their personal camp site. Nobody else has a chance to use the shelter because this group is there the entire time the park is available for use. This was a problem last year, and the group referred to the park as their "turf" during an altercation with my neighbors. My house was recently broken into, and it concerns me to know that there are people who can just sit there all day and see exactly when we are coming or going. I don't mind people using the park (because public use is the purpose of a park), but I think it is unreasonable for one group of people to practically live in the park and claim the shelter every day, to the exclusion of other park users. It would be helpful if they could inhabit a different park - or just be somewhere else - on at least some days.

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!
