Now I bring my small children there. It is an asset to the community, and city--nevermind that green space is so scarce now in our city; we should be focusing on conserving for now and the future. Kiwanis provides a santuary and an escape while keeping us connected to our community. I hope we can save this precious park for our generation and for the future ones.

It would be a shame to lose such a vital family centered resource, in these economic times, where it may not be possible to pack up and fly somewhere, or drive a couple hours to the beach. Kiwanis is a pool, a picnic ground a sports field, and a park all rolled into one. It would be a great injustice to take it away.

Far from being so-called "surplus land", these lovely parks play a vital role in the health and well-being of their respective communities. They offer the benefits of a closeness to nature - birds, animals, water, grass, trees - that many people would otherwise not experience, and ensure that children can learn about the world of nature in their very own communitiy.

Kiwanis park has it all and all natural. If another park is created, it'll still require a parking lot, trails groomed, etc. Thus purchasing another park while destroying Kiwanis will NOT be any cheaper, especially if gov't wants the park to be used and not left to be enjoyed by all citizens. It's also home to many animals, birds, etc which will become homeless and more extinct.

My friends and I use this park regularly... Giving citizens great places to get outdoors helps people stay healthy and gives them a great sense of community.

Even if we only sell small portions, what will we do when there is no park land left? Selling park land is not an option!
