Quincy-area residents had a chance to see what the future holds for the Quincy Park District.

It held an open house this evening to get public input about its new comprehensive plan.

The plan includes improvements to Wavering Aquatic Center and Cedar Creek Linear Park.

Board Commissioner Jeff VanCamp said, "The main thing we want to do with the park board right now is our main focus is to take care of what we got."

Comments will be shared with the Quincy Park Board of Commissioners before it votes on the plan December 14th.
