Kickball team in Tower Grove Park Ousted
By Cara | April 20, 2010
from John Carel, Director of Tower Grove Park
It has come to our attention that there are certain athletic field permit holders at Tower Grove Park who are behaving in a manner which does not reflect positively on the Park or the surrounding neighborhoods. There has been one kickball league that has demonstrated a persistent pattern of raucous lewd language, public urination, disrespect for Park rangers, and nudity, all of which is apparently associated with alcohol consumption. A review of this group’s website makes very clear that they seek a form of recreation that we cannot provide.
Tower Grove Park has decided to cancel the field permits held by this kickball league for the remainder of the season.
We are very reluctant to take action of this type, but these circumstances leave us with no real choice. Please be aware that there are other kickball leagues which have not demonstrated this extreme behavior. Those leagues remain welcome to use the Park.
