Re: Non-inclusive equipment at Griffy Lake- Hello, I am an avid Kayaker and was excited to learn of Griffy's addition of 6 kayaks. My husband and I had visited several times and enjoyed the canoes (there were never kayaks available) and were glowing with praise for our new favorite lake. (photo attached). My excitement soon turned to bitter disappointment, and at this point I have no desire to return to Griffy. My husband and I rented a car to visit, only to be turned away (after the woman behind the counter looked me up and down) for being too large to ride. The kayaks at Griffy are the smallest size made with the lowest weight limit on the market. This is not inclusive. I urge you to consider adding a larger models that accommodate adult kayakers. This would better serve the community and prevent others from having this embarrassing, expensive, and horribly negative experience. Thank you for your consideration. Andrea McManis

I don't have an issue to report. I am trying to locate any art classes that the rec centers may have but I must be overlooking any link this website has. I can only find sport or outdoor activities programs. Would you send me a link, please?

I just went swimming at Mills Pool this weekend for the first time. I recall having a credit remaining from the previous year, but the attendant indicated that these credits don't carry over nor are they refunded. It doesn't seem like it would be too much trouble to allow credits for swimming to carry over from the last year. I hope this is something you will consider for pool users in the future.

Friday, July 25th 7:30pm. Mr. Smith observed the department's green bus turn around in his neighbors driveway, across the street from Mr. Smith's house. While backing up the bus, the back of the bus pushed over wooden a birdfeeder and hanging yard decoration in Mr. Smith's front yard (1411 W. 17th St. No damage but Mr. Smith had to put both objects back upright. The bus drove away. There is a barricade on 17th St. eastside of Lindberg. Signage said closed to thru traffic. It is also a dead end street with no room to turn around.

My child just finished swim lessons last week with Clara B. I would not recommend her as an instructor with kids because she was disconnected and showed little enthusiasm during instruction. I don't think I saw her smile once in two weeks of class. In general, I was disappointed with swim classes and not sure I'll return next year. The classes didn't seem to start on time and the instructors did not seem well trained for instruction.

I play in the adult softball league at the Twin Lakes ballfields. It has been storming with heavy rains since 7:00 this evening (Tuesday). As of 9:00pm tonight, the weather hotline still says "all games at all locations are on at all locations.....check back for updates". Obviously there is going to be no game tonight for anybody. C'mon guys, please at least update your voicemail for those of us that check that message and hurry to Twin Lakes only to find that it's flooded and nobody is there. This is the second time this has happened to my team this summer season....bad weather with no voicemail update. This is becoming a real problem, please do better.

First time at Mills pool. What a great resource. Please be sure to keep open in addition to Bryan Park. Plus it allows for easier access of many low income families.
