For immediate customer service please refer to our staff directory Melanie Walker says she's been visiting Lake Crabtree County Park for nearly three decades "It's got beautiful trails which so many different people use," said Walker "I generally walk along the lake or on the trails." The days of walking on some of the trails are now numbered as Lake Crabtree County Park announced Thursday that the multiuse trails north of the park's main road will permanently close on June 1 I cannot believe that people have made this decision," said Walker Raleigh-Durham International Airport provides land for Lake Crabtree County Park and for years has leased the land to Wake County for $1 a year for public use But that lease agreement is coming to an end to the disappointment of Walker and others who use the trails RDU has said the terms of the lease no longer comply with federal regulations which require the airport authority to charge fair market value for the land That fair market value would be prohibitively expensive to the county According to documents RDU has shared publicly the development will “create a unique and innovative entertainment destination which will appeal to the greater Triangle Region,” potentially including restaurants RDU is reclaiming use of the portion of the park that runs along Interstate 40 According to a statement posted on Wake County's website about the closure park staff will remove trail infrastructure ahead of the end of the county's lease agreement with the Raleigh-Durham Airport Authority on June 30 allowing continued access to Black Creek Greenway 286 and the Town of Cary’s Reedy Creek Trailhead," said the statement "Thank you to everyone who enjoyed and cared for these trails over the past three decades." Sam Trogdon with Wake County parks says officials are working on a new lease agreement with the Airport Authority to keep other amenities including the park's original 33-acre parcel we'll do our best to maintain access to some of those other features around," said Trogdon That's not calming frustrations among visitors and mountain bikers "Why are we destroying this irreplaceable land when we've got entertainment and shopping malls everywhere A spokesperson for RDU tells WRAL in a statement that no decision has been made on how or when the land will be developed jcoccaro@steamboatpilot.com Authorities are investigating a fatal incident at Steamboat Lake State Park after a Steamboat Springs man was found dead in the water on Saturday afternoon, according to a statement from Colorado Parks and Wildlife on May 3 to a report of an overturned watercraft and located a U-shaped inflatable fishing tube known as a “bellyboat,” floating upside down Further search led rangers to a person below the surface of the water still attached to the float tube by a safety strap The individual was removed from the lake and pronounced dead at the scene Officials noted that the person was not wearing a life jacket The victim later was identified as Gregory Bjorgum According to Routt County Deputy Coroner Jacob Custer official cause of death will be determined once an autopsy has been performed the incident occurred near the Rainbow Ridge day-use area Park officials are reminding the public to be cautious on the water when water temperatures remain cold despite warmer air They recommend always wearing a personal flotation device during water activities Editor’s note: This is a developing story More information will be provided as it becomes available Readers around Steamboat and Routt County make the Steamboat Pilot & Today’s work possible Your financial contribution supports our efforts to deliver quality your support is critical to help us keep our community informed about the evolving coronavirus pandemic and the impact it is having locally Each donation will be used exclusively for the development and creation of increased news coverage Camden County officials have introduced park improvements worth more than $2 million a $1-million pavilion at Haddon Lake Park in Haddon Heights formally opened This occurred a day after the official debut of two upgraded playgrounds in Collingswood a $1.3-million project for Newton Lake Park county officials are planning to add a gazebo to Hopkins Pond in Haddonfield Construction bids are due May 8 for the project in Pennypacker Park Something to bark over: Camden County adds dog park in Cherry Hill will be available to the public to rent for gatherings The East Lake Drive building offers an open meeting space and a holding area for performers at the nearby Norcross-McLaughlin Memorial Dell it's to host environmental education classes through employees of the county's parks department The refurbished Haddon Creek and Newton Lake playgrounds have new playgrounds and ADA-accessible rubber surfacing and paths They also have new picnic tables and benches previously worn down by generations of children and vandals "are two of the most well-loved playgrounds throughout our park system," Camden County Commissioner Jeffrey Nash said is bounded by Cuthbert Boulevard and the White Horse Pike The park's amenities include almost 2½ miles of bike paths Jim Walsh is a senior reporter for the Courier-Post Burlington County Times and The Daily Journal the Board of Commissioners opened the Haddon Lake Pavilion a $1 million brand-new state of the art building The facility includes an open meeting space seating area with new tables and receptacles and lush landscaping The space will be available to the public to rent for gathering will be a holding area for musicians performing at the Norcross-McLaughlin Memorial Dell and will hold environmental education classes through the Parks Department “The Haddon Lake Pavilion will be a wonderful addition to our parks system,” said Commissioner Jeffrey Nash liaison to the Camden County Parks Department “We value community bonding and education in Camden County and the Haddon Lake Pavilion will provide a space where both can flourish We cannot wait to welcome the community to the new facility.” For more photos, click here. The Devils Lake Park Board held a regular meeting on Tuesday Adam Nordenstrom spoke about the maintenance of the skate park at Roosevelt Park He said he was looking at getting the surface area refurbished which would help get the transitions between the ramps and ground back smooth again He said the last time it was resurfaced was four to six years ago “I’ve been skateboarding over 30 years… Sometimes a lot of kids struggle with team sports due to social anxiety or even the cost to their family.” Nordenstrom said the only thing they would need the Park Board to help with is these surface area improvements He said he’s already raised money to help with the repairs There are some areas of the ramps that have settled down into the surface which is creating a dip that could potentially cause injuries Commissioner Jamie Beck said the park board’s philosophy is that if people are willing to help make improvements and raise money the park board will support the improvement He added that it has to be planned so it can be put in the budget Nordenstrom was asked to meet with Superintendent Dennis Nysbit to put together a plan for the improvements and to see if it’s possible to get something done this year The discussion of forbidding metal cleats during baseball games was brought up Dennis Nysbit told the board that he reached out to other towns that have turf and only Grand Forks is the only one that doesn’t allow metal cleats on their field Dennis told the board that it seems like a lot of places will soon be phasing out metal cleats The board felt it was too late for this year but could enforce it for next year It was recommended that the board communicate with the teams to let them know it will be happening next year (function(w,d,s,l,i){w[l]=w[l]||[];w[l].push({'gtm.start': new Date().getTime(),event:'gtm.js'});var f=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0] j=d.createElement(s),dl=l!='dataLayer'?'&l='+l:'';j.async=true;j.src= 'https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.js?id='+i+dl;f.parentNode.insertBefore(j,f); })(window,document,'script','dataLayer','GTM-5JSJKTT'); Subscribe Powered by Show Breaking News BarCloseLocal News Spencer Heath SAN ANTONIO – The City of San Antonio’s Park and Recreation Department is hosting an Earth Day event this weekend with tree and plant giveaways The official Fiesta event is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m The release said District 7 Councilwoman Marina Alderete Gavito and the assistant director of the city’s parks department are expected to make an appearance The free event will feature family activities, music, tree and plant giveaways There will also be various food vendors.

CHARLES — St. Charles North coach Tom Poulin knew that his team could find another gear. Despite the North Stars’ 11-4 record heading into Wednesday’s matchup against Lake Park, Poulin felt that while it was an impressive slate, the team had barely begun to scratch the surface of their potential as the season begins to shift into the second half of play. But against a tough team and DuKane Conference opponent like the Lancers, North showed they had plenty more to give. Led by senior Mack Patterson and sophomore Julianna Kouba, the North Stars put up three runs in the fifth inning and four runs in the sixth to help secure a 9-1 victory over the Lancers. “This was just a glimpse of what we can do offensively,” North Stars coach Tom Poulin said. “You’re not going to do that to Lake Park very often. But we were able to control at-bats and square some balls up against one of the top teams of the state.” St. Charles North's Mackenzie Patterson makes a catch in left field during a game against Lake Park on Wednesday, April 30, 2025 in St. Charles. (Sandy Bressner) Leading the charge in the game for North was Patterson, a Loyola-Chicago commit who went 4 for 4 in the game and drove in three runs. “She is just so steady and such a student of the game,” Poulin said. “She’s going to be all over these at-bats the same way she would be if she went 0 for 4. She just keeps working and grinding it out and has a high softball IQ and will keep getting better from it.” Patterson got the offense going for the North Stars (12-4, 4-2 DuKane Conference) early on in the contest, slapping an RBI double in her first at-bat to make give North the early advantage. Two batters later, she would make it 2-0 after scoring on a bunt single from junior Abby Zawadski. “These past four years, I’ve been trying to be a leader,” Patterson said. “And now that I’m a senior, I feel like I’m finally able to just go out, contribute on my part, and then it gets the momentum going and everybody follows. And once that gets going, it helps everyone out.” The senior would get the momentum going again in the fifth inning with an RBI single, and would continue it in the sixth, following a two-run double from senior Ivy Gleason with another run-scoring base hit. “It was awesome to see all of our hard work just come alive,” Patterson said. “Everyone was helping each other out and picking each other up. And it just felt so nice to see everything start to fall in place.” St. Charles North's Julianna Kouba (center) celebrates her home run during a game against Lake Park on Wednesday, April 30, 2025 in St. Charles. (Sandy Bressner) Kouba also finished the day with three RBIs for the North Stars. The sophomore had a two-run home run in the fifth inning and had a sacrifice fly in the sixth, marking her fifth consecutive game with multiple RBIs. “Kouba is just on fire,” Poulin said. “She’s as good of a hitter as you’ll see, and we’re just going to let her keep hitting the ball the way she has been.” The Lancers (12-4, 3-2) had some chances to get runs on the board over the final two innings, getting multiple runners on base in those innings, but couldn’t get the key hit to push more runs across. Lake Park's Ariana O'Connell celebrates her home run during a game against St. Charles North on Wednesday, April 30, 2025 in St. Charles. (Sandy Bressner) “It’s always a dog fight when we play them, and I love playing against them,” Lancers coach Lynsey Gunnells said. “But the last couple of games, we’ve been struggling to get that key hit. We also missed getting some bunts down. So little things like that can make a big difference when you play a great team like St. Charles North. Senior Ari O’Connell drove in the Lancers only run on the day with a solo home run to right field in the third inning. The Illinois-Chicago commit had three of the team’s six hits on the day, adding a double and a single. “She’s having a great senior year for us,” Gunnells said. “She’s at eight home runs for us already and she’s a great leadoff hitter for us. She’s just really stepping up for us, and it’s good to see.” Copyright © 2023 Shaw Local News Network the Board of Commissioners unveiled the newly renovated Haddon Creek and Newton Lake playgrounds in Newton Lake Park The $1.3 million transformation of both playgrounds included the installation of all new playground equipment ADA accessible poured-in-place rubber surfacing “These are two of the most well-loved playgrounds throughout our entire parks system so we needed to ensure they were in the best shape possible for years to come,” said Commissioner Jeffrey Nash and we cannot wait to welcome the children and families back to the playgrounds.” Newton Lake Park encompasses over 103 acres Oaklyn and Haddon Township and is bounded by Cuthbert Boulevard and the White Horse Pike The parks amenities include the two playgrounds For more photos, click here.

Basile said the elm trees crews are removing were likely planted in the early 1930s when they built the lake as the trees have an average life expectancy of 100 years "They're all kind of reaching the end of their usable lives in the landscape at this time," Basile said Partial road and walking path closures around the lake will last from 7:30 a.m Reno foresters have planned a special Arbor Day event at the park's playground to give the area a refresh "We're planning to plant 25 new trees and then we are working on some funding opportunities to repair some of the existing irrigation facilities around the lake That would allow us to replant a lot of the trees that we have that we're losing at this time," said Basile Basile said crews should have the project wrapped up by late June but they're aiming to have it done sooner Explorers can paddle and fish on the water or hike around it during a visit to Black Bass Lake Copyright © 2025, Northwest Arkansas Newspapers LLC.

Once the music stops, the scramble for a chair begins, ending with the seated winners and standing losers. The analogy fits the upcoming Lake Park municipal election and the top four will go on to serve three-year terms a community of about 9,000 residents squeezed between North Palm Beach and Riviera Beach like many of its surrounding communities in this part of Palm Beach County it faces the same problems of that come with growth and development — traffic congestion and the demand for new residential and commercial projects that ultimately have the potential to change and reshape the very nature of the town The Post recommends three incumbents who are hoping to either be re-elected or elected to a full term in office knowledge and commitment to the job gives them the edge over three candidates who didn't accept The Palm Beach Post Editorial Board's invitation to interview — former Commissioner John Linden former Mayor Michael O'Rourke and Commissioner Mary Beth Taylor The Post won't recommend even seemingly experienced candidates if they don't show up to present their views Post Editorial Board endorsements: Palm Beach Post Editorial Board endorsements for March 11 municipal elections She's seeking re-election because she believes the commission and town administration are finally at the point where they can make progress after ending a time of bickerng at commission meetings and financial difficulties that almost put the town in bankruptcy she would push to establish a plan for the U.S 1 corridor that would allow for greater housing density She would be open to making Park Avenue more pedestrian-friendly and would maintain ad valorem rates while prioritizing services to take advantage of new tax revenue to address town expenses a 44 year-old middle school teacher and a former high school football coach was appointed to the commission eight months ago when former Commissioner Linden stepped down from the dais He is seeking his first full term as commissioner and on March 11 voters should give it to him Hensley has initiated a number of community events to draw more Lake Park residents into town government affairs he would work to enhance public safety and infrastructure He'd also work to complete ongoing projects brings the experience of being an urban planner and former Riviera Beach planning and zoning administrator to her role as town commissioner That on top of a 12-year stint as a volunteer member and board chair of Lake Park Planning and Zoning Board along with her time on the dais as an elected official If any candidate has the qualifications to help a community grapple with growth and development Thomas would try to retain the town's small time charm by encouraging the growth of small businesses particularly along the town's Park Avenue corridor She would also work with young residents and help boost schools in Lake Park as well as work to improve community engagement with the Palm Beach Sheriff's Office and other county agencies SAN ANTONIO - A woman who was found dead near a popular running trail has been identified was identified as 61-year-old Delilah Jimenez Jimenez's body had been found by a jogger at the park on the Northeast Side but detectives and the medical examiners conducted a full investigation of the scene Authorities are still working to determine the circumstances surrounding her drowning Seccombe Lake Park will close for a year starting March 3 as part of a $13.8 million renovation that will restore and modernize the 44-acre park Funded by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) and a $1 million grant from the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians the project will include a full-scale transformation of the park Planned improvements include lake restoration The park will also receive new playground equipment with large shade sails additional fishing stations around the lake and the installation of palm tree solar lighting “We’re going to get quite a bit out of our $13.8 million,” Public Information Officer Jeff Kraus said “What has been our crown jewel of the park system will once again be in about a year The year’s closure will be worth it when it’s completed.” While acknowledging the inconvenience of the closure Kraus emphasized that the renovations will be transformational mirroring the extensive upgrades completed at Nickelson Park “We are sorry to see this park go offline,” he said the city has several upcoming projects at Gutierrez and Guadalupe Parks San Bernardino continues to advance on the $244 million Second Street Bridge reconstruction near Mount Vernon Avenue crews had begun paving the roadway spanning the bridge “They started paving the road spanning the bridge The long-awaited bridge replacement remains on track for a summer 2025 reopening restoring a critical transportation link for residents and businesses on the city’s west side “The people of the west side have been very patient,” Kraus said He acknowledged that city officials have long assured residents the project was nearing completion but emphasized that significant speaking at a recent Small Business Watch meeting underscored the bridge’s importance and the extensive financial support behind the project This bridge will soon reconnect two segments of the community that have been cut in half by the lack of a bridge.” With major infrastructure and park improvements underway city leaders say these projects will enhance connectivity and quality of life for San Bernardino residents.
