Courts and Cookouts: Lynn Park Rehab and Improvements

Lynn Park in Youngstown, Ohio is home to a busy community of park enjoyers and outside enthusiasts. Other than trails that are filled with runners and dog walkers, the park also contains areas for picnics and outdoor grilling, making it a popular summer spot. However, with use comes wear and tear, and Lynn Park is looking for vendors or contractors to rehabilitate and improve the existing amenities. These fixes can drastically raise the enjoyment of park-goers, all while making the park itself safer and cleaner.

Investing in modern, durable equipment and infrastructure like Lynn Park wants to can improve the safety concerns of the park. Among the desired improvements, Lynn Park wants to repave certain areas and furnish basketball and pickleball courts. These changes can minimize potential safety hazards such as uneven ground on the courts and reduce the risk of injury walking or running on unpaved areas. The furnishing of the courts will also bring in more players as well, since it will seem much more welcoming and inviting, and who wants to play any sport on unfurnished courts? 

The fixing of grills and picnic areas are of special interest, though. In a country with rising townhouses and apartments, it is harder to find spaces that allow for outdoor grilling, and Lynn Park seeking to rehabilitate their grills shows that attention to detail. On another but similar note, outdoor barbeques and grilling at a park is much better than in a townhome or apartment, not just for the added space. A park venue opens up the possibilities of playing sports, walking off the food, and meeting people you would not typically see. The outdoor community is something that has faded in recent years, but rehabilitation and added improvements such as Lynn Park's goals can make it come back. 

Revitalizing the park demonstrates a commitment to improving public spaces and enhancing the quality of life for residents. By taking this step, Youngstown is showing dedication and attention to the happiness and well-being of it's residents, demonstrating the desire and ability to creating a functional, vibrant environment where people can enjoy the outdoors and other leisure activities.
