I didn't take specific note but they are on what is labeled as the "old boardwalk" side.
While some are just weak others have actually broken all the way through and have
left holes so they will be obvious.

Good afternoon Town Meeting Members,
I'm excited to share that the Gallagher Tennis Courts have been recognized with an Outstanding
Facility Award by the United States Tennis Association (USTA), the national governing body for
tennis!
This is a well-deserved recognition of the fantastic outcome of the end -of -life reconstruction of
the Gallagher and Farias courts that was led by Melissa Battite, Director of the Recreation and
Community Programs Department, supported by the Community Preservation Committee, and
appropriated by town meeting at the 2022 ATM (Article 10f).
If you haven't already, I hope you can enjoy a stroll through the Center Recreation Complex on
one of these beautiful summer evenings to see just how great the Farias and Gallagher Courts
project turned out and to experience the wealth of community activity taking place across the
entire complex; whether playing or watching a game on the courts or ballfields, cooling off at the
pool, running or walking with friends on the track, or climbing and swinging at the playground,
there's something for everyone!
All the best,
Christian Boutwell

Message Hi there,
Hope all is going well!
I am a Location Scout with Fever - we work with Netflix, Warner
Bros., and other major production studios to activate world-class
immersive experiences based on their most popular IP's. Afew
of the most well-known projects we've worked on include
Stranger Things: The Experience, the Van Gogh Exhibitions, and
the Candlelight Concert Series.
We are looking for an outdoor venue for one of the top events on
our platform, slated to open doors in Boston in Fall 2025. 1 came
across the beautiful parks and nature preserves in Lexington, MA
in my research and believe one of them could be a great fit for
this experience. Some event details below.
Night Walk Lighting Experience:
- Dates: October (set-up & installation), November - Feb-
ruary/March (event run)
- Space Requirements: approx. 0.5 - 1 mile trail/path through
vegetation (preferably a loop)
- Time Frame: 5:00 pm - 10:00 pm, 4 nights/week; except over
holidays where we may open more dates if demand is strong
- Event area must be closed to the public during those evening
hours, but can resume normal operations during the day
- Fever is a full-service, end-to-end production and marketing
platform - we handle all ticketing, marketing, production, staffing,
event operations, security, clean-up, etc.
IUUI tCCU11 UCLA W[tU J IUV70 VI LIIC ICIItCtI ICC VVIL11 HU ICJE.JVIIJIUIIILY
to provide production or operational services
Our creative partner on this project has installed upwards of 500
unique events like this worldwide, working with clients such as
Disney, the NFL, Microsoft, Sony, and Universal Studios, and
has experience working in sensitive environments such as the
French Alps. Our practice focuses on sustainability and we work
closely with ecological specialists to ensure proper maintenance
of the land.
If this type of partnership is of interest to you and your team, I'd
love to hop on a call to discuss more details. Looking forward to
hearing from you!
Best,
Amanda

Subject Lincoln Park fitness path
Message Hi Friends,
I'm a regular user of the fitness path. Well, I should say one ele-
ment of the fitness path. I often stop on my bike rides and do
chin-ups on the bars at station #9. In case you're not aware, I
thought I'd mention that the bottom of the timbers that support
that one element seem to be rotting, and the structure is becom-
ing unstable. Hoping that it can be repaired soon, before the con-
dition worsens. Thanks for all you do for the town!
