How to Kick It this Summer: FootGolf in Delaware Park
AS A YOUNG KID, MY PARENTS SIGNED ME UP FOR THE TYPICAL HOUSE LEAGUE SOCCER TEAM, HOPING THAT I WOULD BLOSSOM INTO A FUTURE ALEX MORGAN OR HOPE SOLO. UNFORTUNATELY, SOCCER NEVER PROVED TO BE MY CALLING.
My dad, who was a high school soccer coach at the time, put me through camps and clinics believing that I’d eventually find the love of the game. My mom utilized bribery to try and get me to get involved; she told me she’d give me $20 if I scored a goal at any point in the season.

BOPC Position on the South Park Golf Course – May 26, 2018
THE BUFFALO OLMSTED PARKS CONSERVANCY HAS NOT WAVERED ON ITS LONG STANDING POSITION FOR THE RESTORATION OF OUR HISTORIC PARK LANDSCAPES.
We remain mission focused and supportive of our master plan based projects which demonstrate assured feasibility, proper financing, cooperative communication and public participation – as evidenced by our successful launch of the South Park Arboretum restoration project and its feasibility study last month.

MMAs and Your Olmsted Parks
I AM A HUGE FAN OF OLMSTED PARK CONSERVANCY’S EFFORTS TO SPEARHEAD THE MAINTAINED MEADOW AREAS (MMAS) MOVEMENT IN THE CITY.
These days, instead of seeing humdrum mowed lawns, the park system is coming back to life, thanks to these MMAs, which are controlled areas of natural growth, similar to what you might see in “real” nature.
