We have the park; b i [hey are in dire need of improvement. The bail fields need to be regraded o+ to be resituated. The hockey rinks need yrading, new and better lighting and new boards. Our "shacks" have to 6e replaced with new structures reasonably priced and strongly built). The swings and slides (play apparetus) need to be replaced and / or added to. Plantings need to be put in for "buffer zones" and for attractiveness. There is need for a major park south of Highway 10 for residents in that area. Both tennis courts and a football area are proposed for Greenfield Park. We have "made do" wi[h our existing parks but a growing community needs growing parks.
