The Taylorville Park board met on Monday evening to discuss business, review reports, and hear from the Treasurer in their regular monthly board meeting. There was no meeting in December due to the holiday, so there was a lot to go over Monday night. The board heard from Jason Boldig who mentioned that the HVAC unit at the Lake Shore Golf Course was leaking.
Boldig got some quotes and the board approved Blakely’s Heating and Cooling to do the work.
Recreational Director Bailey Hancock talked about Christmas in the Park. The park saw the highest number of cars that they’ve seen for the event. 7,628 cars came through, 80 more than last year although it went a day longer. Donations did drop though this year, from $28,933 last year to $28,512 this year. The highest day was Friday, December 24th, with 740 cars. Saturday, December 11th, and Saturday, December 18th, also saw more than 600 people go through. Hancock says they are already starting to prep for next year and they’re looking at doing some work at the tennis courts.
The next Park Board meeting is set for February 28th.
