At Bryan park 2-5 yr old playground the new digger is much too big and unsafe for this age group. My son's arm got smashed under the bucket. 2-5 yr olds can not sit on the seat and reach the ground , let alone the handles. I'm glad the city installed something new but hopefully this digger can be moved to a park for older kids and we can get a much smaller digger in this spot. Thanks!

Two fence sections on Schmalz Farm Park (pic shows 1 of them) behind 3014 E Daniel St are rotted out. Putting home up for sale and would really appreciate these getting replaced. Thanks! David & Melissa Goodrum
I was at Lower Cascades park yesterday and the large rope play structure seemed less stable than normal. The blue center support pole was visibly swaying as kids climbed the ropes. I may be wrong, but i don't remember the pole moving on our previous visits to the park. I just wanted to let you know so someone could take a look. Thanks! PS - we love lower cascades park.
Hi, Is Hilltop still a part of the Bloomingto Parks and Rec. Department? Visited recently and was really surprised to see how far the program has drifted from its original mission as a youth gardening program. With the money provided by Dr. Shalucha and the funds raised for the new gardening house and greenhouses, I feel that the youth gardening program should be the major focus of the garden and not a free family gardening spot. Any way to bring the original Hilltop back? Mary Hursh
I'm at the north parking area for the Bloomington Rail Trail. It's my option that the regular parking spaces need to be marked in addition to the handicapped space. I know the lot is made of very nice brick and I hate to mark it up but people's parking is so haphazard without lines. Sometimes there is no parking without parking so close to someone that they can't get in or out of their car. Also the bushes need to be trimmed around the handicapped parking sign. It's there so it might as well be visible. Yes, I have seen cars parked there without handicapped tags. Thanks for your consideration, Steve
Kitty Robinson and myself have a total of 4 raised garden plots. We are unable to take care of them so if the food bank group wants to go see if there is anything they can get they are more than welcome to it. There might still be tomatoes.
Hi, I have a request regarding the tennis court lights at Winslow sports park. Currently they come on some time between 8:15 and 8:30 pm. This leaves bit of a lag between dark and the lights coming on. Can you please change the time the lights come on so that this lag is eliminated? Also, last year the lights stopped around the end of October. Since it is good weather for outdoor tennis till mid-December, will it be possible to extend the days for tennis court lighting? Thanks! - Bipin
