One of these days at this rate the frost will be burned down for an oil drilling spot. Were all you can smell is ash and crap from dogs that have gone through with responsible owners. fealing smooth grass as a mockery of natively thorny plants that are needed for the insects to survive.

When i was 5 years old i went to olcott park in bloomington indiana. This was in december so there was lots of snow. Me and my day made a igloo by pressing snow in a box to make bricks. In the igloo we made there was a door, chimney, campfire and table. We liked it so much we decided to go home an grab sleeping bags so we could spend the night. Unfortunetly we didnt do a good enough job of building the walls and at 4 in the morning it fell on us waking us up.

I think it is important for communities to have parks because it provides a third space for a community and "provides openness that you can't get in a building." A park also provides an opportunity to get outside and exercise which most people don't do anymore. Parks also provide good scenery that "should compliment the city as much as possible." They also provide a sense of unity for that visit or are involved. They provide a sense of unity because they are free and you get to experience nature and not have to worry about how much it'll cost.

As a child, my family and I used to celebrate our parties at Donner Park in the shelter. On one particular occasion, it was my birthday, and my mom had invited all of our family members to join us. We had a cookout where we cooked delicious carne asada, tacos, papas fritas, and sausage. Afterward, we gathered around the cake to sing happy birthday. However, when we were about to start passing out the cake, my brother took a piece and smashed it into my face. I retaliated by grabbing another piece and returning the favor. This led to a fun cake fight between us, and by the time we were done, everyone was covered in cake. This memory has always been one of my fondest from my childhood.

I remember when I was younger maybe about 6th grade, I would go to parkside with someone who was like my sister. We would sit under the playground where there were little walls and a small circle exit. It was always really peaceful, even though there were kids running around and on top of the playground we were under, it was like they were tuned out because it was just us. We would sit under there and talk for I don't know how long and I don't know even remember what about until my mom would text saying we had to go home. We sat below the playground so long in that little square that when we stood up our legs had pins and needles. There were a lot of memories I have at Parkside with people that were good, but that was just one of my favorites.

I think parks have a big meaning to me at this age. Parks are an escape from me being in my house all day. I can benefit from them not only hanging out with friends or playing sports but also just from doing something new. I think every park has something new to do. Another thing I can benefit from a park is it can be a new place to think and come up with new ideas because there is no distractions.

In my opinion, I think that Columbus is one of the best areas for a mixture of green spaces and parks as well as regular city life. We have easy access to places like Lincoln Park, Millrace, Donner, and many more as well. Places like the people trail also allow for Columbus to be somewhere that is more walk-able, instead of just with sidewalks by the side of a road. We have the ability to take leisure in our transit, and aren't forced to just deal with normal city walking. Columbus is most certainly one of the greener cities in the state, and it is obvious with the ease of going to your nearest park.

Parks are very important for the well being of the community. They are the place where the community can go and enjoy the scenery. In addition, parks help sustain your mental and physical health. They provide a place to relax and take in the fresh air. In larger cities, parks can be a helpful change from bustling city life. Furthermore, home buyers often choose cities to live in based on park systems and the surrounding areas. So, Parks can help the economy of a city. In conclusion, parks benefit the city and its people in so many ways.

As a little kid I used to play at ceraland park all of the time. In one of the playground there used to be a very tall slide, maybe around 15 feet tall. I was there with my sister one night and the playground was closed off since it was quiet hours, but we hid together on the slide from the patrol people on golf carts. We ended up getting away with it, but we don't hide anymore.

When I was almost three, I lived in Seymour.  There was a park there, in the center of town, that holds my memories.  The park was shady and cool, with lots of trees.  It smelled of mulch due to the center piece of the park.  Me and my dad had the park almost entirely to ourselves, so we played for 2 hours.  I was really good at falling off the climbing sections of the parks.  My mom recorded it and its now forever memorialized on youtube :  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wkj6-WzhMak

My grandma used to take me to a park near Lincoln Village. My brother and I used to do obstacle courses and run through the trails and raced across the monkey bars. We look forward to my grandma watching us go to that park. We went almost every day during the summer. I miss going to that park every day.

The way parks mean to me currently are that parks are a way for me to relax and sometimes let out my energy. I go to parks and either sit on the bench and listen to the bird chirp and the tree branches or play and run around to let my energy out. I always played with my brothers at the parks. It also helps build my brother's and my connections with each other. Going to parks helps me get away from school and home. Hearing birds chirping and the wind really helps when I don't feel well. I like day dreaming at the parks too. It's pretty peaceful.

When I was about the age of 5 and 6 me and my dad had a routine to go to mill race every weekend as a way to be with eachother but also enjoy the nature, my favorite part is getting to walk over the bridges that he called "the monkey bridge." My next favorite thing that I did was doing the monkey bars, my dad loved videoing my growth with them and getting to be with me through those joys. We would also always start the day with breakfast at hardees for the biscuits and gravy. I so deeply remember all of those memories everytime I get into his truck, because our bond is definitely worth so much. The best part is that recently I talked him through and asked him if he would like to redo what we used to do, and have a day together, and gladly he said of course. So that saturday I crawled out of bed and got myself ready and believe it or not my dad was there waiting for me in his truck and it felt like I was a little girl again. When I got in his truck we talked about how nice it was to get time together since the two of us never have time to go places that much anymore. And after that I appeared in the hardees door and the smell and visual appearance of the inside all came back to me. After that we of course went to mill race and went over the "monkey bridge" and looked at the rivers, and had some good conversations as we were enjoying the peace of nature as well as eachothers company. And suddenly I felt 6 again having the time of my life with my father.

My favorite park in Columbus is the playground at CSA Lincoln. Throughout my elementary school career, I spent many days playing on that playground. My friends and I had a game that we played almost every day called "green line tag," which involved the big rope climber in the middle of the playground. We also loved to roll down the turf-grass hills. I fondly remember the games of tag, the handstand competitions, and the gaga ball tournaments we spent on that playground.

I do we live in Indiana where we have a lot of green space, but not enough appreciation. We have a lot of forests and parks. The stability of some of this is not as stable as it should be. People who own forests can cut them down and sue trespassers. I get this for hunters and stuff, but I think these things should mostly not be owned by one person. They can one day wake up and say
"I am going to turn this forest into a grape farm with horrible infant watering methods with the on going water shortages.

I like Lincoln park because I always play basketball with friends or brothers. I like it because I feel the sweat dripping down my face and then the cool breeze when I'm running. The smell of fresh air and hearing the ball go smoothly through the net.

My favorite park is the Park side playground. This park is special to me because I used to go there a lot for birthday parties, chilling with childhood friends, and to spend time with my parents. It is also the most fun park in my opinion because of the big rock you can climb. I have a lot of memories of me and my friends climbing that rock and then jumping down.

Blackwell park/parkside is probably my favorite park. From going there with my friend to play as little kid, to playing football and soccer with my friends every once in a while. I've only been there a few times, but the time spent there was incredible.

In 5th grade on my birthday me and my mom were living with my aunt and her foster kids and I was having an awful birthday there were bugs in my cake no one could afford a gift my brothers couldn't be there so after an hour of just everything failing and going wrong my mom took me and my aunts three kids to mill race on the way we stopped at Mc. donalds and got breakfast and when we reached the park we sat on a these metal blechers at the very top and we ate and talked about old memories and me as a kid and after we went to the park part and my aunts kids chased me around the swings and played tag and hidden seak after an awful morning that park day really made it the best birthday could've had.

I think that it is important that communities have access to parks because it will encourage healthy activity and act like a third space for the people of those communities. It will give opportunities to people to create friendships with people outside of school. The green trees and grass encourage peace and life in the communities. It will show the kids, in particular, sports that they can participate in or just give them a calm space to do some activity outside of the modern computer games. Such things grow the communities and all other aspects of the city, community, and people.

Although it's not technically a park, I would say Camp Gallahue in Brown County certainly made a lot of memories for me. The camp was very big and spread out, with locations connected by gravel roads and dirt footpaths.  Most of the campsites had scouts sleeping outside in platform tents, that have a wooden platform as a base with a tarp acting as a roof. If a night got too cold or a storm too fierce we would take mattresses off the rusty metal cot and take it down to the unit house, a building usually in the center of a campsite where things like gas stoves, microwaves, and other important things were held. It was also where the scouts met for group activities.

Every summer I go to ATV park with my buddy. We plan a few weeks ahead so we have time to take the day off of work. We load up 3-4 ATV in our trailer and head off. When we get there we unload the ATV and we put of food and drink in a bag on one of our ATV. We go riding for hour and get stuck a few time but all so fun.

For me parks are someplace to go relax, or spend time with friends and family. To be able to go to any park i want her and just have a good time makes me feel very happy. i can go out for a couple hours spend time on my own or with friends and just do things that make us happy. i like going to parks to for walks sometimes when the air is refreshing or out with friends to catch up with each other.

# data[].attributes.body
Personally I don't have a favorite park. i just go to what fits best of what i want to do in a park. If i want to have fun on a playground or something i go to Donner but if i just want to walk around and have a good time i go to millrace. It's not about having favorites its about the memories at the parks that are more important to me.

To me, parks are a good place to relax or play with my two brothers. Sometimes I'll sit by the small park at the oil can church. I very rarely will read there, soetimes I'll run over there and take a long break. It's very pretty and relaxing, even though the park is dirty and infested with weeds, the trees are very pretty. I love it a lot, its very calm because noone ever really goes there except maybe a few kids that live in the area. But yea, it's definitely my favorite park. :)

# data[].attributes.body
I think it's important because it's important to have places to refresh yourself or have a good time. if communities don't have this access if feel like they will be dull and bland not knowing what it feels like to have that escape to nature and fun right in front of you. To live in a community where I have this access is refreshing in its idea and glorifying.

# data[].attributes.body
I Have not been to many in this community but when I lived in Fishers there was one that I would always love going to. There was always an icee truck parked nearby and a bridge that crossed over a creek. Then after the bridge there was a huge 3 story playground with branching paths. There was also trails in woods nearby and just generally an amazing place.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes. i think we have a good amount of parks in Columbus and green spaces. millrace is a good example of both a green space and park in my opinion. and i love that i have access to that anytime.

We have access to parks because they can help you have fun. It is also another source of exercise. It's a place to do sports. Its a place to spend time with family.

I think its important that communities have parks so kids and family can enjoy themselves and later on go to parks, in my opinion parks look good in communities and help out a lot.
