Two items on the Parks and Recreation Board agenda will center on the latest developments at Muskego's Idle Isle Park.
Kristin Formolo will discuss Idle Isle Concessions at the park pavilion. The permanent structure has been designed to accommodate food sales, and has been used in the past by the Water Bugs ski team and other civic organizations for specific events.
In addition, Lisa Niles with the Little Muskego Lake Association will be present to discuss the next phase of Idle Isle beautification. Last year, the all-volunteer group worked over a couple of weekends to transform the shore line along the launch side of the water with plantings and new materials.
The board will also discuss reports of vandalism at Jensen Park and restitution for it, 2012 baseball usage fees and a potential agreement with Wayfinding Signs for the commission of Pepsi vending Machines in the parks.
Looking ahead further, the board will begin discussion on costs for snow removal from trails, grass mowing & park development costs and will receive an update on the Muskego Warriors sponsorship efforts for the development of Park Arthur. The Warriors Youth Baseball club had approached the board earlier to present a multi-faceted plan to raise funds to complete the construction of the large field at the site by the end of summer.

Nice pic., I hope they replace the sand with finer sand. Also should be NO SMOKING on beach to keep it cleaner.

The finer sand washes away with the waves. Kind of have to go with coarser material or it won't last long at all.

What touches the water gets a little 'touchy,' as the DNR usually has something to say about beaches and new materials poured for them. If we have lake residents reading the conversation, they may be able to explain that better. No smoking should also be a no-brainer, or at least not be used as an ashtray.
