A little good news almost passed unnoticed this week. For years the little park between the City Hall and the Library in Twentynine Palms was named Veterans Park. For what ever reason, the park's name was changed to General Stanley Park. I kind of believe it was a brown nosing exercise by the former City Manager. Stanley was Base Commander during the time when the city annexed the base. Its not like Stanley had much to do with it, as it was a directive from the DoD. But for what ever reason Veterans Park was sacrificed and renamed.

Good news, at last Tuesday's Council Meeting set into motion a plan if approved, that will please Veterans and get their park back. Yes brothers and sisters, the little park between the City Hall and the Library will once again be called, "Veterans Park."

Chalk one up for the little guys.
