The Carlisle City Parks & Recreation Board reviewed project updates and community programming at its March 18 meeting, including North Park improvements, memorial-item options and scheduled community events.
Mason McMillen reported grant updates and budget review for the North Park project and said the disc golf course has been reworked; he is pursuing local business sponsorships for individual holes.
