One of the xylophones in the playground north of the Switchyard dog park is no longer connected to a cord. It's just sitting there on the ground.

Sturdy looking guy distributing drugs in Seminary Park. He was wearing a green vest.
Rotting boards that you walk on to get to the top section with the big slides. The hallway like area has at least 2-4 boards that are beginning to rot and bend. If someone heavy stepped on them it would definitely break.
I am afraid of this park due to drugs, sleeping people and drinking. It sure sets a bad example for Bloomington as a friendly town.
Rather than blowing the dust around this and other Bryan Park playground, perhaps park employees could weed the mulch. I think it looks OK, but a better use of employee time, I think. Or take care of the weeds on the various spruce trees along the paths. That latter item may already be on a regular maintenance calendar, but that too would be more useful than dust blowing.
Tuesday morning around 8 a parks employee was blowing dust around near the basketball courts and nearby parking lot. A leaf blower in both hands. Why? Air and noise pollution, carbon footprint. Years ago every morning except Sunday at 7:30 the playground on the Henderson side had dust blown around. Worse then because those blowers had more powerful motors. But why? What is accomplished? I mean this as a serious question. When I see employees spraying a picnic shelter with liquid from a tank, i figure that is disinfectant or pesticides for an area where people eat, drop food, attract pests. I get it. But the dust blowing, I just dont Thanks

The two south pickleball court nets have holes in them. The one nearest the parking has the tape's treads undone so the ball slips through. We used the warbands from a N95 mas to tie it up. Helps a little.
The top of the backstop on the ball field next to the pool looks like a tree branch fell on it. If so, then you have removed the branch and know the backstop needs to be repaired. Or did it just collapse?
Climbing rope “rocket” has a broken connection. Safety concern for kids on the equipment.
