To whom it may concern
I would also like to add to my previous comments that the Gilroy community might not be fully aware of this
opportunity and thus tonights response might not be as enthusiastic as it should be
This would be a shame if Gilroy makes this important decision without full knowledge and support from the
community.
thank you. Greg Podshadley longtime resident of Gilroy and avid user of Hecker pass, Harvey bear and Henry
Coe parks that surround our beautiful community

Our family supports the future development of an adventure park. It can be developed in such a way that it serves
all age groups and skill levels, and could use the existing parking facilities of Gilroy Gardens.
Could very well be a year round source of revenue for the city in so many ways
Allows for 3rd party businesses to supply equipment and food services
The bike park component has so many other examples to learn from throughout the country. People will love the
venue!!
Would not be surprised if with the right pre marketing and solid business development efforts the community
could get Specialized or Santa Cruz Bikes to become major sponsors on a reciprocal basis
There is so much to love about this opportunity...Please Please choose to move forward with this project !!
