The transformation of the Mt. Carmel City Park is continuing as the Rotary Club raises funds for a new shelter house and restrooms. Mayor Joe Judge, who is also the president of the Rotary Club, said the club has raised $90,000 of the $130,000 goal for the project.
The new shelter house and restrooms would add to recent improvements to the park including new pickleball courts and a renovation of the basketball courts. But, there have been problems with the basketball courts since this summer’s improvements and increases play. First, Judge said basketball players were leaving an inordinate amount of trash around the courts. Now, a new issue has developed…
Judge said the issues are disheartening to those responsible for the improvements….
Judge said anyone with information on the vandalism should call Crimestoppers.
