Brownsburg Parks updated the Town Council on March 12 about work completed in February and plans for new community programming. Staff emphasized maintenance, safety and training during the winter months. Crews removed invasive species along the B&O Trail and in Williams Park and continued shelter refurbishments at Arbuckle Acres Park.

Recent activity and programs: - Crews led Weed Wrangle events to remove invasive plants along the B&O Trail and in Williams Park. - Facility work included replacing park bumpers to improve accessibility and ongoing shelter refurbishments at Arbuckle Acres Park. - Winter weather response required nearly 27 staff hours clearing snow and ice from trails, parks and designated plow routes. - Community programs saw notable participation: the Father-Daughter Dance drew 557 attendees at Connection Pointe Church; a Morning Bird Hike identified 19 species; and Little Sprouts preschool sessions included bird-focused activities. - The department announced a Senior Soirée for adults 55 and older on April 21 from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Eaton Hall featuring music across multiple decades and opportunities for socializing and dancing; staff said they are starting the event on a small scale and will watch how it grows. Summary: Brownsburg Parks' winter maintenance and programming kept facilities operating and continued community engagement through family and nature events. The department will host the Senior Soirée on April 21 and intends to evaluate interest before deciding on any expansion.
