Numerous residents took advantage of a sunny Saturday at Mattocks Park, joining in a community event and fishing derby organized by a collaboration of the Friendship District Congress, El Dorado Lodge 151 and the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission.
In the coming weeks, local residents will have the opportunity to submit and share ideas about improvements and amenities they would like to see in city parks particularly, a water feature/aquatic recreation facility to replace the Mattocks Park swimming pool.
