OLD MEDAL RK

Downtown Journal has the story on some vandalism in Gold Medal Park.

October has been a rough month for Gold Medal Park.

A neighbor at the Bridgewater recently noticed that someone removed the letter “P” from the large sign and flipped it upside down so the sign read “GOLD MEDAL dARK.” Then the letters “P” and “G” went missing, leaving the sign to read “OLD MEDAL ARK.” Yesterday an “A” disappeared as well.

Vandalism is not cool and Gold Medal Park itself has an awfully checkered past for it only being a couple years old. But… heh.
