Not enough pickle ball courts. I went on Sunday and 15 people were waiting continually for two hours. It causes an issue because people are sitting on the courts. Also, it can be frustrating for them to have to wait so long to play it would be nice if the city would create more Pickleball courts. This is a very popular sport and has been for many years. I’ve tried to play a Park Ridge in East. This is not a solution. It took 20 minutes to put up the net. I had to find a way to get the combination to the lock. It took another 15 minutes to take it down and put it all away. The lines are confusing, so my group has decided not to play there.

The bathrooms are locked. The park is full of people and the bathrooms aren't available.

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.

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

The Twin Lakes Recreation Center continues to delay repairs on their turf field in places where the turf has worn too thin, in some places work all the way through to the concrete. We had multiple incidents in our league game this past Sunday where our players narrowly avoided serious injury because of this. Stepping on this spot the wrong way while running, or tripping or falling on it, can cause someone to tear the ligaments in their leg or break a bone. It's not easy to see when you're running fast, and not easy to avoid when you're playing a game on the field. We all have to sign liability waivers to play there, but we are also paying Twin Lakes to provide a safe environment, and this is not safe. Twin Lakes management said they plan to "have the company come patch once leagues are over. As bad as it has gotten we might move that up to spring break week." What does that do to protect our players for the next two weeks then? We need to do something about this spot now before someone gets hurt. Hundreds of people play on this field every week, including dozens of children on the youth soccer teams. What are they going to do to make it safe before the company comes to patch the field? Please respond so I know someone saw this. Thank you for your consideration. Best regards, Sarah Mosier 765-516-4862 s.e.mosier1@gmail.com

Unacceptable turf field conditions. Visible concrete on the field.

Turf is hazardous! There are large divots that can cause serious injuries to players. Please advise!

Case Date:

2/24/2023

The turf field is becoming unsafe for those who regularly use it. We pay to rent that field out and are seeing more injuries due to missing turf, minimal turf, or very uneven repairs. This year compared to years past is claiming more leg injuries across a number of sports.
