Frustrated With Memorial Park Graffiti

Editor,

I am very sorry to report a disturbing incident that I came upon late Friday afternoon. As I took my dog Marley for our usual walk through Memorial Park we came upon a tree close beside the path that had been tagged with fluorescent pink paint. YOUR MOM. Terrific! I thought.

Further up the path towards the campground, to the north, there are some large erratic boulders in the woods. They also had been tagged with large, well executed, graffiti with the same pink paint. The largest boulder was decorated on both sides. These boulders have been decorated before, but with far less disturbing effect. I have always been disappointed that the Park has not taken the trouble to remove such graffiti, since it is ugly and, of course, attracts more of the same.

This time we must, at no small expense, I am afraid, do something about removing it.

Yours sincerely,

John Kerr, Meaford
