Boulder Beach organizer gains approval for 10K trail event at Zindler Park

The Lock Haven City Council held a regular meeting on March 8, 2022, where several key requests for the use of local parks were discussed and approved.

One of the primary topics was the approval of a change in dates for an event at Zendell Park. The council unanimously agreed to move the event from September 30 and October 1 to the 23rd and 24th. This change was quickly voted on and passed without any objections.

Additionally, the council reviewed three requests for park usage. The first request came from Greg Fleming, who sought permission to use Zendell Park on March 12 for a 10K race aimed at beginner trail runners. This event had been successfully held the previous year, and Fleming assured the council that all necessary liability insurance and agreements would be in place. The council approved this request after a brief discussion.

The second request was from the Great Island Presbyterian Church, which wanted to use the Floating Stage and amphitheater on August 7 for a music performance. The church provided the required insurance and agreed to adhere to safety protocols. The council confirmed that this event would not conflict with the summer concert series and approved the request.

Lastly, Holly Ernest requested to hold a small wedding ceremony at Museums in the Park on May 14. The ceremony is expected to have fewer than 75 attendees, and Ernest has already received the necessary guidelines. The council approved this request as well.

The meeting concluded with no additional public comments or requests, and the council moved on to the next agenda item. Overall, the council's decisions reflect a commitment to supporting community events and activities in Lock Haven.
