The screening of the movie Wicked as a sing a long is great! But only the songs are captioned. Wouldn’t it be great to make the screening inclusive and caption *all* the dialogue?

I am trying to register for a Parks & Rec community event. The website says that I need to have an account. When I try to register for an account, it will not allow me to do so because the Phone #1 field (which is mandatory) is not working properly. As soon as you move to another field, the phone number disappears. I re-entered it multiple times and it will not stay in the field. I tried 3 different browsers all with the same result. At this time, I am unable to register for an account on the city webtrac.bloomington.in.gov/ site or register and pay for the event that I am trying to attend.
The person on the customer service line (-3700) was extremely helpful and was able to get my garden plot reserved. What a great city employee. Name may have been Andy.
Is there a way to let non-facebook members scroll down more than two or three posts on your website? I can't check your website everyday which means when I do check I can only see two and a half posts. Those that aren't facebook members or don't check daily might be missing information regarding events and important parks related news. Also, thanks for being part of what makes bloomington a more interesting place to live. P.S.- If it's an unchangeable facebook function would you consider using a less limiting social media platform? One that is more open to the public. Reddit comes to mind but maybe it too has some limits or restrictions I'm not aware of.
I saw this Walking with Ease sign at Bryan Park. For people with arthritis or poor balance or impaired vision / hearing or other such issues would walk around the asphalt paths with greater ease and sense of safety if some "Cyclists Yield to Pedestrians" signs were posted. This is especially true of the path through the middle of the park, which connects cyclists between the Allen Street Bicycle Boulevard and the Southdowns bike-ped lanes. I would suggest a sign at each end of that path, on the the Henderson and Woodlawn sides. I walk there frequently with my dog and friends. Cyclists approach from in front and behind. We pedestrians usually make room and sometimes the cyclists do. Sometimes they let us know when they come up from behind, but not always. Some signage could end the confusions over right-of-way. Keep in mind that the mid-path curves. That is pleasant and would be safer if cyclists slowed down and anticipated other users. Defensivei cycling, the cycling version of defensive driving. Thanks!
Waiting until just minutes before rec soccer games to announce field closures is frustrating and avoidable. The weather conditions were clearly visible on radar well in advance, and a decision could have reasonably been made at least 30 minutes earlier. Families plan their schedules around these games getting kids ready, packing up, and traveling only to find out upon arrival that everything has been canceled. This has happened more than once. Please be more proactive with communication moving forward.
https://cascadesgolfcourse.org/ Greetings, my son Silas Ellett went to purchase his season pass at Cascades golf course today Sunday April 19. On the website it clearly shows that the 2026 season pass price for 18 and under is $245. However, when he arrived at Cascades today, they told him that that was wrong. I have attached an image file and the URL of the current website. In addition to the misinformation on the website, the personnel at the golf course were very rude. Silas was using his 18th birthday money from his birthday six days ago on April 13 to buy his golf pass for the summer. He was super excited to spend the summer at Cascades. It’s such a wonderful resource that the city provides. Our family is very disappointed by this news. I think a reasonable accommodation is to give him the $245 pass because it was posted on your website and that was a planned activity that he had for today using his birthday money. Thank you for attending to this matter. We would really like to hear from the city about this. Jodee
I am an elderly individual who relies on a cart to access the course. On multiple occasions, I—and others with mobility or disability-related needs—have been turned away when requesting a spectator cart at events held at Cascades Golf Course. Many of us travel significant distances to support our grandsons and granddaughters, only to arrive and be told that no carts are available, with little more than an apology offered. As a public, municipally operated facility, this raises serious concerns about access for individuals who cannot reasonably walk the course. If these issues are not addressed, I will be pursuing a formal complaint based on accessibility concerns and will be consulting with legal counsel regarding next steps. I would strongly encourage this matter to be reviewed and resolved promptly.
