I must admit that the decision to close some parks hit home as I live in Chittenango. As a family we have gone to this park for many differeent reasons. We have had picnics, gone to organized functions, camped, taken some walks just to get outside and most importantly, brought people who were visiting from other areas there to show what an amazing place it was. All this right in my own back yard. Granted, it is not the most visited park in the area. When we go, there are only a hand full of cars are in the parking lot. Conversely, if we go to Green Lakes, it's packed! It doesn't seem to cost nearly as much to run as a Green Lakes. I wonder how much they are saving in closing it down? None of the reports seem to mention this.

I hope they keep it open.
