McAdams Park

[2] McAdams, a former city policeman, served 27 years as director of McKinley Park.

[4] In 2021, a bronze statue of Jackie Robinson was erected by League 42, a youth baseball program.

Parts of the statue were found days later in a local park and it was determined the artwork was meant to melted down for the value of its metal.

An arrest followed three weeks later and it was further determined that the theft was not based on a hate crime act.

The original mold of the work will be used to recast a new statue, planned to be completed by summer 2024.
