There have been questions regarding Fun Valley Park and what may be going on there as there have been some marking flags in the park. Here is an update from Dan Coryell, Parks Manager- The areas marked with flags were a visual aid for the Parks Division to see if the sledding area would be affected if the playground was moved. It was decided it would impede sledding and use of the park, so the playground will go back to where it originally was after that area is raised with dirt to allow water to drain away from the structure. Happy Sledding!
