The batting cages at Winslow are still not up, even though rec league practices have already started. That means teams and players cannot do batting practice. The same thing happened last year, when the cages were not ready until late April. Hopefully they can be up by this week. If help is needed, I know parents and coaches are ready and willing to assist.
Unfortunately, the condition of the fields and facilities creates a negative cycle: the facilities are not properly maintained, people get frustrated and stop signing up, and then Bloomington sees low turnout and does not prioritize investing in improvements. Then the cycle repeats.
If the fields and facilities were ready to go, properly maintained, and given a few needed upgrades, I believe rec league participation would increase. Winslow could also become a stronger location for hosting successful baseball and softball tournaments.

A few years back, city removed all large trees in subdivision and replaced with smaller ones. Got to our yard and ran out of money. Since then we’ve tried to keep it trimmed from our yard and sidewalk. Big issue is also the street drain by tree dropping leaves and limbs blocking the drain because we can’t cut it anymore. We are 70 and 80 yrs old and on fixed income. Can the city at least cut back the limbs substantially. We can’t pay a professional tree cutter. Thank you for consideration. Picture attached.

Park Ridge East Park wooden fence is in shambles. It’s not achieving the desired purpose of a barrier between the road and the park. It is splintery, and it is not sturdy at all. A child is likely to get hurt.
