Regarding: “City parks continue to crumble; more funds needed” (Sept. 18, Kent Reporter):
While the following is admittedly a drop in the bucket, here’s a little money-saving tip.
Many a night, all the lights at all the ballfields at Hogan Park are left on literally all night. Why on earth pay to light up a playing field at 4 a.m.? Why not use a simple timer to turn them off after the last games of the evening are complete? I’d assume 11 p.m. would be late enough to ensure the games don’t go dark mid-inning. Just my two cents’ worth. We have to start somewhere.
