My focus at Roberts Park this morning was to see the beautifully preserved 1884 Longwood Covered…read moreBridge but there's so much more to do here. It was a nice opportunity to walk around and see the park itself. Picnic pavilions, sporting fields, basketball courts, tennis courts, volleyball courts, pickleball courts and even an amphitheater. Many of the park roads are one way which was a bit of a challenge to getting exactly to where I could see I wanted to be but the road doesn't go that way. Oops.

Connersville has a really nice park that has something for everyone. Whether you like swimming,…read morebasketball, pickleball, tennis, or horseshoes, they have a place for it at Roberts Park. If you like watching your kids play on a variety of swings, slides, and climbing equipment scattered throughout the park, the have those here too! The park is a mature park with lots of shade trees that are greatly appreciated on days like the one I visited here. There are narrow roads that meander through the park since the place is quite large. On the south end near the aquatic center, there is an amphitheater for racing and some barns near there. I didn't see any horses during my visit, but I assume that the barns and track are for those. Must be a seasonal thing like the swimming and water slides. The park also has the Longwood Covered Bridge which was relocated here for preservation. There are a couple sculptures and a few plaques to commemorate bits of history tied to the park & Connersville. Generally, there are a lot of options for individuals. The only reason I didn't give this a five star review is that the park looks like it could use some attention. The tennis courts has cracks that have been sealed, but the scraggly white lines should have been painted over to match the court. Very distracting. Some of the older playground equipment could used a fresh coat of paint too. The garden area by the park admin building was in need of some trimming and the brick around the fountain could stand some work too. Little things, but they do separate an older park from one that has the latest features. A wish list would be a walking trail separate from the roads. I don't like having to continuously watch over my shoulder for vehicles coming up behind me, or having to walk through the grass when it's wet from dew. Otherwise, the park seems like a great place for specific activities. Review #1419

This is one of the nicest parks in the area. The playground has new and unique equipment on a…read morepadded area. The playground is surrounded by a fence that only adults can reach high enough to undo the latch (which is mounted outside the fence requiring a sense of touch to undo it.) There are several other activities available for visitors: a baseball diamond, a multi goal basketball court, and a disc golf course that wraps around the other amenities and the large parking lot. I did not see any shelters/picnic tables/restrooms near the playground or else this could be a five star review. Review #1022

We pick up our 20 month old with lunch from 4 hours prior on his face everyday. I ask why he's so…read moredirty, and get the response "I just got here". So clean him, do you not see he has food caked on his face? I was told by one of the workers they have not been taking good care of our son. They left him in the sun too long, and his cheeks are sunburnt. He had a completely different outfit than what we dropped him off in, even his shoes were changed. He had ANOTHER blowout. Strange, his blowouts are rare when he's home. I was told by one worker (the one that just got there) that he was either lactose intolerant or his diapers are defective. I was told by the other worker that the teacher doesn't tighten the diaper up enough. We told them to stop putting him in jackets on nice days unless he's cold in the classroom. When cleaning out the poopy clothes they packed up, there was another child's windbreaker covered in poop. And he had sticky gunk all over his belly and chest. (All of this was all in one day, although we pick him up with a dirty face everyday). We dropped off a large pack of diapers and wipes, and these were gone very quickly. I was told by a worker that the teacher was using them on other kids. It's all very strange. I was told the daycare is going downhill and is now trashy by one of the workers. The people they hire keep the children alive, but they aren't given the attention and care needed to thrive. Two seconds in the car and I decided our son is never going back to this place. He'll be starting back up at Luv Bugs in Centerville, Indiana where we know he's safe. We have tried calling the daycare to talk to the owner about why he will not be returning, but she's never there anymore (quoted by a worker). I cannot express the level of distrust, anger and betrayal we are feeling about this place. Please note I was told this place was VERY nice 2 years ago, but has changed dramatically. There are not enough good staff to take care of your children.

All are friendly and helpful, and Maria is just the best gal - excellent with adults and kids. They also offer classes and activities throughout the week for anyone from toddlers to adults.

I slept on my experience before writing this review. Yesterday, my 10 year old had their birthday…read moreparty here at Richmond's Paint The Towne. It was a first time experience for myself and several others in attendance. There were 20 people in our party. The party was reserved and paid for over a month in advance for 1:00pm. I arrived at 12:35pm for Maria, the owner, to tell me they weren't expecting us. Shocked, I gave other names that might have been written down since a couple of us had called multiple times with questions for said party beforehand. (Myself, called with questions after paying reservation fee which was...again...over a month before) She told me that the staff had tried contacting us previously to confirm the party and that they'd received no response?? I said "I'm confused, wasn't me paying the reservation fee a confirmation?" I also double checked my call and text log as did the other person who had left a number prior to me paying. She never really cleared that up for me. She wasn't friendly at all. Walked us back to the area I assume was supposed to be for us and in a frustrated manner told me she could work it out. During this time, I stood there wondering what'd happen next as she walked away. After 10 minutes waiting for other people to arrive, she approached me with a clipboard and still clearly frustrated, she asked me the name of the "guest of honor" and how many people would be participating. I pulled up my call log and bank receipt to show her...she looked and said ok it's fine. I began to apologize and explain this was my first time and that after I paid, not once, did anyone I'd spoken with mention another confirmation before the date of party. She cut me off mid sentence and said very brashly "I said it's fine." This is the owner of this place. She was the one to explain to the kids what to do and after that maybe came around 2 more times briefly. (We didn't need anyone to babysit us as the process was simple and there were plenty of adults in our party to assist the kids...so that wasn't an issue) However, nobody explained to me the process of how to or when to pick up our painted pieces. We were there for exactly 2 hours. Total spent from everyone (including 75 dollar reservation fee) was 250.00+. Other details aside, I felt like we were a burden. The kids did enjoy themselves and had a good time so the experience was fun overall. Maria has a wide variety of things to choose from to paint and the space is well decorated, clean and very roomy. The prices aren't horrendous either...In my opinion, it's nice to have so many options that are affordable. Her attitude on the other hand, was very poor. I have never been treated that way by someone I was doing business with. I may return, may not. Somewhat depends on the pick up process for our pieces. I do know I will never book a private event there again.
