Sound like great ideas. Why not the bike trail extention...the RR right of way is there. A little state representative backing could make it happen. And the Dinky extention would be even better.

I think that the community should take a more active role in the funding of Marsden park because it is not city funded and works on a very limited budget. The park is a great resource to share and it is up to us to help make it better. Many communities pay for their parks thru tax dollars and this is not the case with Marsden park but they have many costs associated in the upkeep of the park nonetheless Besides the funding of the day to day operations some park improvements might be the basketball court and a skateboard park and recycling bins I think the community should pursue the extension of the bike path from Dodgeville to Fennimore and or from Fennimore to Werley and or Woodman following the old "dinky" route. This would be in keeping with Fennimores current "Get fit" program and give people young and old alike a safe place to bike and exercise and also promote tourism. I think Fennimore should provide a dog park facility which could be done by making Oak Wood Park officially pet friendly I will not be able to attend the meeting on April 1st but had some thoughts that I wanted to share
