ELKHART, Ind. (WNDU) - Several parks in the City of Elkhart will soon see some upgrades, but first, the city is looking to get input from those who use the parks most.

In an effort to spruce up 6 parks in the City of Elkhart, the parks department is hosting virtual focus groups with neighbors to better understand what they want in their nearby parks.

“We have a really great parks district, and people use them every day, but it’s our job to make sure that we’re meeting the peoples’ needs and their wants with these park systems,” Superintendent of ParksJamison Czarnecki said.

Local non-profit enFocus is helping gather the ideas of community members in order to create individual plans park by park.
