Son plays baseball in school, etc. Today they had off in Charles. A bunch of them meet up at Bennsville to hit, practice etc. before the weather gets bad. In no time they are told they have to leave the field. They do not litter it up or tear it up, just want to practice ball. They go to White Plains, same thing. None of the high schools will let them practice there also. Where do teenagers go just to play a little ball???
They are not hanging out partying, getting into trouble, etc. They just are out getting some fresh air and trying to improve their skills.
With all the trouble kids are getting into etc. why not let them play. I know the fields have a lot of upkeep but at least put one aside where you don't mind if they tear up a little grass or something. I thought public park meant "public". At least I know my tax dollars are paying for facilities that my kids can't use. Thanks for the vent.
