Lafayette Park Neighbors Form Improvement Association
About 50 Lafayette Park residents met at Linden Methodist church to organize the Lafayette Park Improvement Association to clean up and enhance Pat's Pond. E W Van Arnam was elected chair, with power to form committees. Support came from Mrs. Sam Frank of the Waterloo Woman's Club and John W. Gwynne of the playgrounds commission. Ideas included dredging the pond to create a future swimming pool and ice rink, while keeping the pond from being filled in. Attendees urged petitions include names of women supporters as well as men.
