 | 48th-Ave Park Ideas on what to do to attract more people that wish to live in BruderheimProperties that became assets, not liabilities, and other properties that could do the same48th-Ave Park: Wilderness-through-neglect — turned aroundTo attract more families — families with children or planning to have children — to come to Bruderheim and settle here, a little extra is required. As good as Bruderheim looks, it must and can be made to look better. Some Bruderheim residents really go out of their way to make that happen. Often it takes no more than a little spark of an idea. Do you like playing horseshoes? Well, there is a place in Speaking of that drainage ditch. The Town Administration cannot pretend that they don't know about it, although perhaps they tried and maybe for that reason didn't cut the grass there for years. That drainage ditch is supposed to prevent the annual spring floods on 48th Ave, between 48th St. and 51st St. That drainage ditch is vital to the health of the pavement on 48th Ave. The ditch keeps 48th Ave dry, but only if it is being maintained properly, and that is not happening. At any rate, seeing the mess in the area immediately adjacent and west of Randy's woodworking shop, Randy and a few of his neighbours decided to do something about the state of the affairs there. A bit of brushing, grass-cutting, spraying of weeds and a bit more regular mowing made it possible to create a nice little place for a picnic table with an umbrella, a properly constructed fire pit, a garbage can, even a chopping block (no firewood is made available there) and, most of all, a few pieces of lumber and a bit of clean sand to built a horse-shoe pitch. Check it out, and it didn't cost a dime of the taxpayers' money, just a few people taking initiative — isn't that great? Thanks, guys, for a job well done.

Bruderheim where you can. Quite likely few people know where, but those that go for hikes along the railroad tracks, beginning at the little "bridge" across the drainage ditch west of Randy Sikora's woodworking shop know about it.
