We've recently noticed bicycles being ridden on the newly renovated courts at Centennial Acres Park, Kohl Park, and Koons Park, leaving tire marks and causing damage that cannot be repaired through routine maintenance.

Please help us preserve our courts by keeping bikes, scooters, skateboards, and other wheeled equipment off the playing surface.

If you see something, please say something. A friendly reminder can go a long way in protecting our community amenities for everyone to enjoy.

Thank you for helping keep our parks and facilities in great condition!
