		<description><![CDATA[Please specify park hours for Cunningham Park in queens. If it changes from season to season - it should be noted as such.  Also someone needs to tell the police that it is NOT ok to accost people in the park for having their dogs off leash.  They are unaware of the new ruling and are handing out tickets for people like us who just want to get some exercise with their dog in the evening. (off leash with license and vaccinations intact)
Thank you]]></description>
