Staff previews Mountain Festival schedule and Mining Park renovation
Summary
Parks staff updated the board on Mountain Festival events this week (pet show, bike derby, kids parade) and said Mining Park will close next week for renovation; staff emphasized Fantasy Forest Playground will not be removed during the project.
City recreation staff provided event and operations updates: Mountain Festival activities are underway with a pet show, a bike-derby skills course at Cedar Park and a kids parade from Sandy Grama Elementary. Staff encouraged board members to promote the family events.
Staff also said Mining Park will close briefly for renovation work beginning next week; crews will repaint restrooms and conduct playground repairs but "we are not taking down the Fantasy Forest Playground," staff said. The closure is intended to allow contractors to complete renovation work safely, and staff asked board members to direct community questions to the parks team while the park is closed.
