Do you live in the area near Livingston Park. If so, we need your input to help guide a makeover of the park's playground at 2855 Hawthorne Avenue NE. We're preparing to replace the aging play structure with new equipment that is fun and safe for kids (and adults) of all ages. Funds from the Safety and Livability Bond passed by voters in 2022 are paying for the project. Please take a few minutes to answer questions that will help us understand what kind of play structure you'd like at Livingston Park. The survey closes July 23.

USA TODAY readers honored Minto-Brown Island Park with third place on its nationwide Best Dog Park Readers' Choice Award competition, announced today. Fiesta Island, San Diego's 90-acre fenced off-leash park took top honors, while Newtown Dream Dog Park in Johns Creek, Georgia took second featuring artificial turf, and doggie splash fountains. Read the full story: https://lnkd.in/gBArdEhf Minto-Brown is still clearly tops in our hearts. Publicity from the contest resulted in dozens of 5-star rankings from visitors to the park. "One of the reasons I am proud to serve the City of Salem is its impressive network of parks and outdoor activities for all residents," said Mayor Chris Hoy. "Minto-Brown Island Park is an amazing asset with fishing access, trails, play structures and incredible views. I love taking the opportunity to walk and relax in this beautiful space. I also love how Salem recognizes that we are committed to providing access to all of our residents – elders, youth and our furry friends. I am proud that this park has received this well-deserved recognition.” Oregon proved itself a dog-loving state, placing three community dog parks on the top 10 list, more than any other state. Independence placed 10th on the list and Albany placed eighth.

UPDATE: The ARCHES Project plans to have its drop-in Day Center at 615 Commercial Street NE open from 9 a.m. until 7 p.m. when temperatures exceed 95 degrees, otherwise until their usual 4 p.m. Heat in excess of 95 degrees is predicted for July 5-9 in the current forecast, with the possibility of July 4 exceeding its 94-degree forecast. When temperatures reach 90 degrees, targeted outreach begins by providing unshelter individuals with water and electrolytes, helping with cooling center navigation, assessing individuals for signs of heat-related illness, and contacting proper emergency medical personnel when those signs are present. FROM JULY 2: Temperatures are predicted to climb above 100 over the weekend in the Salem area.
