I am wondering why all the bird houses have been removed from the trail stretching from That Road Trailhead north for about a mile. I have watched these nest boxes being used by native house wrens and tree swallows for years. Thanks!
There is a weeping willow at the corner of E Southdowns Dr and S Hawthorne that took a hit during this afternoons storm. We have cleaned most of it up and stacked it nearby for pickup. The problem is, there is still a very large, broken limb hanging dangerously above the walkway that we could not reach. For this branch to be removed, will require a lift and bucket to reach. Thank you. MPW
Handrail missing on north side of pedestrian bridge on Jackson creek trail bridge. FYI
There is a hole at the base of the fence at Ferguson Dog Park. The picture does not really show how large it is but, my rather large, chubby beagle was able to get out yesterday.

Five of the trees in the Fergusan Park have been very damaged in the last few days. Can't tell if it was machinery, a chain with a large dog (doubt it for all five trees) or purposeful vandalism. At least one of the trees has deep gashes all around.
I've noticed the systematic cutting of the wild grape vines throughout the Griffy Nature Preserve. These are native Indiana plants used as food by wildlife, not an alien invasive species. Why are these being cut from the nature preserve? Shouldn't this area be allowed to remain as wild as possible?
There is a lot of Poison Ivy growing on the sidewalk on Highland Ave at entrance to the Winslow Sports Complex walking path. It would be nice to have that go away.
Heather called and said there are older kids vandalizing the playground equipment and benches at Crestmont Park. She took her kids there yesterday and got paint all over her hair and clothes. She also said they are urinating on the slide(s) at night. Wants to know if we can do something about it. Please contact her.
