More interactive parks with technology, free wifi and programming for active senior citizens are among the improvements that residents should expect to see in the coming years. Implementation began this month of long-term plans to improve facilities and parks in town that cater to a variety of ages and abilities. “Eudora has an incredible sense of community,” City Commissioner and Parks Foundation Board member Alex Curnes said. “I also think it’s really important that Eudora remains a great place for all generations. The plan also helps us to see what the community feels is their priority.” Programming goals include continuing to promote Senior Foundation events that focus on the active senior community. With recreational sports such as pickleball rising in popularity, seniors have become increasingly involved, Assistant Parks and Rec Director Jimmy Kegin said.
