GOVERNMENT ENHANCING OUR community MUSIC TO OUR EARS MUSICAL INSTRUMENT PLAYGROUND NOW OPEN AT WESTLANDS PARK On June 12, the Village celebrated the grand opening of its first musical instrument playground at Westlands Park. Approximately 60 attendees braved a windy June evening to listen to Pan Generations and try out the new musical instruments at the park. The idea of placing outdoor musical instruments at Westlands Park stemmed from Village resident Lita Saltzman who championed the Parks, Trails and Recreation Commission’s desire to bring music to Village parks. A steering committee comprised of local school teachers, members of the PTR Commission, the Arts and Humanities Council, PTR staff, and the resident who proposed the project was formed. The committee reviewed many types of outdoor musical instruments and proposed a grouping based on the sound produced, playability, size, and cost while ensuring a well-rounded mix of instruments with a wide public appeal. Funding for the project was included in the 2016 Capital Improvement Program. At the grand opening, Mayor Rakowsky along with members of the Parks, Trails and Recreation Commission, Vice Chair Kathy McClintock and Arts and Humanities Councilmember Catherine Huggins delivered remarks about the excellent outcome of the project and the importance of bringing the community together through amenities such as music in the parks. If you haven’t had a chance to try these unusual and beautiful instruments, stop by Westlands Park at 5701 South Quebec Street. The musical instrument playground is located between the water feature and dolphin pond.
