Jenny Sickmiller from the park office said each group would visit once or twice a week and bring between 2 and 14 clients. Each organization will pay a one time fee of $75 for the year’s usage.

The park board also approved the request of Keith Hammonds from the Masons to conduct their annual Walk for Autism on September 17th. They plan to walk on the Greenway Trail.

During the public input session of the Plymouth Park Board meeting, Wilson Gerrard suggested, “There are three new members on the city council. I think it’s time the park ask to create a park district to have more of those using the parks help pay for the parks.”

Park Board president, Dave Morrow told Gerrard they have it in the 5-year plan.
