Sherwood oaks park tennis courts appear to have been vandalized. The court closest to the creek has a bent standard and the net is gone. I am pretty sure the net was there on Friday.
My family and I went to the concert in the park last night (8/11/19) at Bryan Park. My two year old daughter needed her diaper changed while we were at the event. I was shocked and hugely disappointed in the city when I realized that there are no diaper changing stations in the public restrooms...at a park/playground no less! I had two choices, lay my daughter on the dirty floor of a public restroom or lay in her grass at busy event to change her diaper. We parked to far away for it to be reasonable for me to walk all the way back to our car to change her. I can't believe that it's 2019 and the public restrooms (women's and MEN'S) at our city parks aren't equipped with this basic item. Time to step it up Bloomington.
People driving off road vehicles on Jackson creek trail, driving on,the basketball court, driving on the playground a 6pm in the evening with people playing basketball, little kids on the play ground and users on the trail. The also drove them in the grass through the butterfly area trails. Black Nissan truck with trailer two off road vehicles. Guess you need a sign what would seem to be obviously irresponsible. It was a family with 2 adults and two, maybe three kids.
People are again living in the shelters at Butler Park. Not only are they preventing others from using the facilities but they are leaving trash, clothing, and other messes when they do leave.

Serious bump at karst greenway at Ind Center for something. Just needs smoothing. Great trail!
broken handle of play structure at Bryan Park
The parking lot in Bryan Park near the sand volleyball court along Henderson has a problem. On the north side of the main play structure in the play surface there is a decent sized hole. This hole is big enough that a child or adult could easily step in it and be injured. The hole is through a rubber type play surface covering the ground. I'd recommend repairing this if possible.
Limestone Rail Trail: Ms. Tilford walked the trail and reported barriers and no trespassing signs behind Dillman Treatment Plant. She asked if that area is private property. Farther south she said cows are grazing on the right-of-way. She asked if the Rail Trail Conservancy might be able to help. She is a member and trail supporter.
As a parent of a developmentally disabled adult and Special Olympics coach, Mr. Murphy wrote to thank the Dept for including golf in the BPR SO program. Espcially commended Jennifer Phillips and staff who recruited great volunteers, the best in 3 years! See letter.
