They say that the jumps are disturbing the watershed, when in reality the watershed hasn\'t changed since the jumps were created. Also if you go down to these jumps you would see that the jumps are not close to the creek, with a good 5-10 feet of ground between the edge of the jumps and the creek. So even if the city does tear down the jumps, it would not change the watershed at all. So we need your help to save the creek jumps that mean so much to so many people in the area.
