Finally a voice of reason!!! Why oh why do we hire consultants who then feel obligated to suggest changes where none is needed. Leave Wenonah Park as a PARK not a side show installation. Have they done any survey of the people in town and the county? I doubt it--a small group of people get a bright idea and then plunge ahead. Like Mr. Lockey said--what's wrong with the original plan?

The trend in America is growing in the downtowns, with more people living there it is a value for them to have green space. A place to connect to nature for mental and physical health. Central Park a prime example. We are growing our downtown, restoring and generating it. Let them have a place to go to . Use the park for periodic things to draw people for downtown business and financial support for the city. Ice skating is a great idea for the community and to get people out but put it in one of the parks that have more space . Freshen up Wenona park don't change it!

We absolutely agree!
