Some people seem to think that we, our babysitters or nannies can “drive” to places like CV Community Center or Greenbridge (in Crow Canyon) when the simple fact is Adobe Park is the only park in the Village / downtown area . Why would I want to drive to a park two miles away when there is a space such as Adobe that has inadequate play structures that are geared toward kids age five and up? There is that big grass area with BBQ ‘s etc. but not a place where a lot of kids can play at. There is no place downtown at all for kids (unless you skateboard).

Editor: I went to Little Caesers Pizza for dinner with my two kids, my niece and my friends son. I was appalled to see a smoke shop (in the Adobe Shopping Center) next door ! Grant it, I am a non smoker, quit over a year ago. So the thought is really disgusting and I can’t understand how it’s a “faze” to all gather in one room with the doors closed and “smoke”. How is this okay but so many CV residents had a problem with a Goodwill store? Are you kidding me? This is a shame. Sure it will bring tax revenue, I get it. But really? A cannabis shop would bring revenue too. Doesn’t mean I want it in my town.
