Walking every park in Woodbury

"{\"article\":{\"headline\":\"Woodbury Resident Walks Nearly Every City Park\",\"body\":\"A Woodbury woman and her dog have made it their mission to explore nearly every park in the city's extensive system, visiting almost 50 parks since September 2023.\\n\\nKathy Stevenson was inspired to walk all of Woodbury's parks after seeing a television interview with someone who had visited every state park. Armed with her constant companion, a dog named Melodee, Stevenson set out to discover what her own community had to offer.\\n\\n\\\"I saw a person on TV that was being interviewed that walked all the state parks, and I thought, I wonder if I could walk all the parks in Woodbury,\\\" Stevenson said. \\\"So I went to the website and I clicked on the parks and I thought, oh, there isn't that many, I can do this.\\\"\\n\\nWoodbury's park system spans more than 3,000 acres of open space and parkland, with parks located in every neighborhood and connected by miles of trails. Stevenson has 11 parks within walking distance of her home, giving her plenty of daily options. She keeps a detailed spreadsheet tracking all the parks she's visited, distances walked, and other details.\\n\\n\\\"What I have learned is that the parks here are absolutely stunning and great condition,\\\" Stevenson said. \\\"They're beautiful. The nature that we see, the lakes, the streams, and they're always being cared for.\\\"\\n\\nWith Discovery Park recently added to her list, Stevenson now has just two parks remaining to complete her ambitious goal.\",\"word_count\":248,\"primary_focus\":\"Meeting highlights and decisions\"},\"sidebar_elements\":{},\"metadata\":{\"sources_used\":[\"Meeting transcript\",\"City council records\"],\"uncertainty_notes\":[],\"next_meeting_date\":null,\"follow_up_needed\":null},\"notes\":\"Generated from meeting transcript and analysis\"}"
