Parks and Rec Capital Improvement Projects
Norwalk Parks and Rec has recently completed two capital improvement projects
in our city. The first was repainting the basketball courts at City Park. It now has
a purple overlay with white lines. This new paint was a much needed project
since it hadn't been painted for approximately 15 years. The second project was
the renovation of the adult ball fields at the Sports Complex. New infield was
added along with irrigation. This will complete all fields at the complex with new
infields so that the complex is ready for spring tournaments. Stop by and see the
new updated facilities. Photos submitted.

sound. Come learn the czdls and sounds of Iowa's owls
so you can identify them yourself. We will have owl
mounts and a live owl so you can identify them by ap-
pearance and learn what makes them great birds of prey.
