Robert Holden
Things were changing fast by that time, women were beginning to come to the ball parks. We had to stop cussing.

Parks, in addition to being quality of life components, in a place like Texas are huge economic generators.

John Morrissey
The question is can you enjoy the parks without leaving them unimpaired?
Curt Buchholtz
One thing he did in Idaho was try to get more resources for parks. Hopefully, he will try to carry that ahead nationally.

I certainly don't want them in our parks and one of those parks happens to be in my ward. Let's face it, who wants billboards in our parks? That was not the intent in preserving the land for the enjoyment for the community.
Councilman Dave Kucherer
We're extremely interested in it because it was the first ball diamond they had anywhere in Middle Tennessee that we know was for black African-Americans in the early days because they were not allowed to play in the community parks. We had thought this would be a good project to put a historic marker there.
Evelyn Bennett
They incorporate what they've seen here at other parks and nature centers around the country. It's a pretty neat legacy.
