They sent me an approval email that had artwork of 4 multi colored tags with my logo white. I didn't actually say I wanted a white logo but I loved the way they looked, so I approved them. Well when I received them in a timely manner they were multi colored tags but had multiple colors as the logo, not at all what I approved. When I finally got a hold of someone they told me it was an artistic rendering that I approved and nothing can be done. No where in emails did it say anything about that. As someone that reads blueprints for a living knows that artistic renditions is written on the blueprint. I'm attaching photos. I didn't want a full refund just wanted all logos white, like what I Approved!

There are three parking lots in the park, one along MacArthur Boulevard that can hold about 55 cars, one along Mason Street that can hold about 90 cars, and one along Salome that can hold more than 50 cars. The park does not have any vehicular traffic. However, a walkway connects the Mason Street parking lot with the MacArthur parking lot and brick shelter, passing the band shell. The restrooms were recently renovated in 2019 and now feature a modern playground system, three picnic shelters, and eight pickleball courts. The trail branches south to get to them. A brand-new disc golf course circles the park. The northernmost area of the park has a sledding hill. Picnic shelters, pickleball courts, an 18 hold disc golf course and a fitness court.
