Today was very exciting! We got a lot done and now we are ready to move forward. Our group went to the Cully neighborhood and surveyed as many people as we could. We even spoke Spanish to the Spanish-speaking residents; that way they could give us their input too.
We know they will want to use the park so we translated the survey to Spanish. Everyone that we talked to was nice and cooperative. The only problem we had was that a lot of the people in the neighborhood were at work so we had to look for people harder. All in all, we had fun although it was hot.
