My family and I go to Chambers Bay at least once a week, sometimes more and it would be a tragedy to lose any part of it to private enterprise.

Some trash at kobeyashi, towards the end where people skim board. See a lot of people go in there to the low area and leave garbage

By reading this I realize how much I have missed by not going to more parks that are nearby! Must change that!

I hate the proposal of a stage in Chambers Bay Park and building "villas" at Chambers Bay is going to be a disaster.

We need to get a handle on the drug use, and poor behavior at many of our parks. They certainly are no place for kids to enjoy themselves. I usually am on guard if we do go, avoid if occupied by these folks, or leave quickly when they arrive.

Some parks I will not go to anymore due to drug and alcohol usage and homeless and/or sketchy people hanging out. I’m sure those areas are known to local officials and should be taken care of. Lost and will continue to lose more if not controlled and cleaned up soon. Sad and frustrating.

Cirque Park is the only park available for youth sports, and the fields are not in great playing shape. Going to other towns to watch the kids play games, many have turf fields . UP grass fields are to smooth, too many "pot holes" and poorly paced causing overlaps between sports.

I really wish that we had a community pool like Fircrest does. I know that we have the Curtis Pool, but swimming indoors during the summer is not pleasant. An outdoor pool would be great. As I stand in line every summer with other non-residents to sign up for swim lessons at the Fircrest Pool, it is obvious that many UP residents choose to go there during the summer.
