Put something here This link is helpful: https://cityoffresno.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=53f212b20a0f47efb6681df6c8ad2eaa

Think the scope here is way too broad. I'm going to do a more focused article on the Fresno Parks and Recreation Department.

Scope seems to be parks, trails, open spaces, across metropolitan fresno although I dont think I want to do madera?

Note the table in this this is also a great example
