Directions to Broadmoor Pool

Coming to a swim meet in Broadmoor? Here's how to find the pool.

On South University Avenue, turn west onto Lakeshore Drive. When you reach a "T" intersection with Berkshire Drive, find a safe parking place. The pool is reached by a walking path on the north property line of 2 Berkshire Drive.

Please park safely without blocking drives.

For a map, just Google "2 Berkshire Drive, Little Rock, 72204."

New logwork in clubhouse

David Peterson has spliced new logs in the clubhouse wall over the fireplace. The old logs were damaged by termites. He did amazing work.

After the logs dry, David will go back in and chink them, then we will paint them to match the original logs.

Berkshire Drive cookout June 28

Broadmoor board member and neighborhood watch coordinator Steve Sullivan will host a cookout June 28.

The purpose is to get Berkshire Drive residents out to meet and get to know each other.

Steve lives at 19 Berkshire, and the cookout starts at 1:30.

Broadmoor Lake restocked with largemouth bass and bluegill bream

On June 16, the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission put 1,125 2" Largemouth Bass and 1,600 3"- Bluegill Bream in Broadmoor Lake.

Past President Jack Perciful met the truck about 1:30 and let them in to dump the fish.

Jack asked them about how long it would take these fish to be of a catchable size, and they said it depends on how much food they have.

The lake has catchable fish from previous stockings. Just take care to throw back any grass carp. They are in the lake to reduce the weeds.

Remember, fishing licenses are required, and you must be a Broadmoor resident or accompanied by a Broadmoor resident to use the park and lake.

Thanks, Jack!

Playground equipment installed

The fenced, "little kids" playground area is almost complete. The equipment has been assembled and installed.

The equipment is for kids 4-10 years old who are supervised by adults.
