I ran this series on the CBTL facebook page, but wanted to share them here. For those who didn't follow them, this is my personal "20 for 2020" which is going to be 20 items of importance to the future of Michigan City, and what I believe should happen with them as well as why. If you are interested in seeing the discussion that went with them on facebook check hashtag #20for20 on facebook.

Part 17 of the #20for20 series of ideas of Michigan City improvements is for the City to develop an Anchor Kids park.
The Valplayso park has been wildly successful as a magnet park for kids in Valpo. LaPorte had Fort LaPorte, and has recently put a ton of money in the modernization and update of that facility. Even after the stategic plan which was released last year talked about the need for focal points in our neighborhoods, no plans have been made for a facility, nor for upgrading a current facility to match what surrounding communities have done. Again, a major theme throughout a lot of the #20for20 posts is that we need to give people reasons to stay in Michigan City or move to Michigan City if we want to stop the decades long populations decline that we have seen locally. So much of the park system is in decay or neglect, but having an anchor park for kids would be a great place to start. |
