I'm launching a personal protest against the Henry County Parks and Recreations. My child plays baseball at Cochran and Hidden Valley hearts in North Henry County. Currently it is impossible to use the batting cages at the Hidden Valley location because the L screens are in serious disrepair. I have nearly been knocked out buy a ball trying to help my son improve. And I have seen other children catching to other children that have really been hit by balls that come through the L screen because the screens are in disrepair as I stated earlier. 3 weeks ago I filed a maintenance request and I'm going to do another today but I also went to visit to other parks. I visited the Ola and Locust Grove Park and I found them in excellent condition... No issues just one L screen that have been blown over due to high winds. I am going to do another maintenance request and I'm seeking to review the budget of the Henry County parks and recs as it pertains to the baseball fields. Today we play the game after you 10 level with no mouth and there is a batting cage at Cochran Park that cannot be used because it does not have L screens and the grass is nearly two feet high. We want our children to experience greatness and I think its citizens all children should be provided everything needed to give them a chance to perform in a spectacular fashion. If the differences are tribute to private funding, so be it but at this point this does not appear to be the case.
