Reaching this level of support has been a long road and the weight of it is finally starting to sink in. My exhaustion is still there but seeing this many people push back against the proposal gives me the resolve to keep fighting. We are not backing down now.

I go to the park often, and have never seen anyone get out of control because they have had a couple beers. There is a little something for everyone to do, and that's what makes it one of the best spots in denver!
Stop trying to control everyone. I live in Denver and love to use the park for athletics, food, friends, and fun. I also enjoy the right to have an ice cold brew.
Responsible adults who pay huge property taxes to live in the Wash Park neighborhood should be allowed to enjoy a beer at the park.
Current Resident & tax payer for area & would like to continue to go to the park I pay to maintain & enjoy a BBQ & a beer with friends.
Mr. Nevitt, this unilateral move to ban alcohol at Wash Park would be catastrophic to the social atmosphere so many of its residents rely upon. I would highly recommend creating a common sense approach with the Wash Park community to mitigate and/or eradicate some of the concerns you have. You know, the community this would affect the most.
THE LAND OF THE FREE AND HOME OF THE BRAVE!
No need for such nonsense!

Never had a negative experience in the park, and I am there almost daily as I am a homeowner in the neighborhood. I would wholeheartedly support increased pressure placed on park users to always leave it better than they found it.
