Boy Scout Ryan Marienau and Troop 59 have completed a very fine trail on the west side of DeVictor Park.   The trail is a loop, on the west side of the creek, which starts and ends in the playground area at the corner or Harvard and George Williams Way.   We recommend you visit the park and enjoy the trail.   The Neighborhood Association and the City of Lawrence thank Ryan and his troop for all their hard work;

Christina Hoxie, Stephanie Mott and Neil Steiner have created a beautiful plan for the playground across the street from Langston-Hughes Elementary School.   Their presentation is posted below.   For best viewing, open the presentation in a window on the left side of your screen and the narration in a second window on the right side of your screen and review them together.   We will encourage the City to provide funds to complete the playground and other features of DeVictor Park in the near future.
