Our parks should be safe havens for families and not watering holes. ? The Burleson City Council may have banned alcohol at BYA games, but they still plan to allow it at other events geared toward kids 12 and up. That’s not protecting our youth, that’s promoting alcohol around them. We’re calling on parents to show up with their children, wearing their team gear to remind the Council that youth means 18 and under. Our kids deserve clean, family-friendly spaces, free from booze and the potential of bad behavior.To hear the discussion that led to the decision to allow alcohol sales in the first place can be heard at Time Stamp 15:15
