The open lawn area was perfect for families and small gatherings. Everyone seemed to be enjoying their time.

The dumping of trash has gotten ridiculous. There is literally a couch someone drug down by the water by the first entrance coming from Pekin right after the bushes they hung beer cans from. Whats with the water pollution and why is the milkweed being mowed down? As part of our homeschooling, we released our Monarchs out there this year and walked around cleaning up garbage and fishing line. It's a worthwhile place that human garbage is ruining. The game warden we have met was really cool and great at answering questions about hunting areas. We love Banner but we don't love the trashing of it at all. If you bring it in, take it out.
