Articles: Hall of Shame

Th erecnt fire damage to our new play equipmnt has no been epaired by DMBC staff and is as good as new – ready Saturday’s launch…. see you there.

The new adventure play equipment in the park has been damaged after just a week.  This is annoying more than anything else but the damage has to be repaired and does not bode well for future developments.

Whoever has done this does not live far from the park and we ask for vigilance in this area especially as the nights draw in.

Day One of the school holidays – and one of the gabions on the lake edging has been broken open to remove the boulders (again).

Please, please, please – let us know if you see anyone destroying our work. We need youngsters to respect the park and not make more work for the volunteers. We have enough to do as it is.

We have recovered a shopping trolley from the bog pond…… and in the best use of available resources it was used to relocate a damaged information board that had been damaged in the park.

Not ideal but someone’s got to sort it. Small stuff really but all in the ‘line of duty’ for our volunteers.

For the first time in years we had a graffiti attack in the park – it is annoying but we’ve sorted it now and things looking tidy again.

We would appreciate any information anyone recognises the tag.

Someone overnight upended our Tour de Yorkshire cycle and all the flower baskets on it.

Worse things have happened in urban parks but it’s annoying all the same. Delighted to see our volunteers hard at ‘work’ unfazed by the problem.
