Disappointed since PNW took over Arboretum
Gabis Arboretum at Purdue Northwest的点评
点评：Since it was donated to PNW, this place has gone downhill big time. I used to bring my two little sons who are in High school now and it used to be our magic outing each time. Now, seems like all PNW gets out of this palace is money and puts nothing back into Arboretum. They don’t cater towards kids and families and all they do is make money out of weddings, birthday parties, showers and school fundraisers and spend $0 on renovations and maintenance. Disgrace!
Here is what you will see now:
1. No animals and that area with the garden for the kids looks poorly maintained. PNW hadn’t added any new equipment or additions for the kids since Tall Tree arboretum setup. All the little houses, spider web, wooden maze are all from way back when, from the time it was Tall Tree Arboretum. Purdue hasn’t added any new playground and the little houses are dirty with tall grass snd weeds surrounding the whole area. Add some new equipment for the kids and nice play ground.
2. Music Area has missing and broken parts with no sticks to play instruments. Bamboo Sticks were all missing. Pipes are missing. What a disappointment for little kids. If you charge for entrance, at least fix this area so the kids can enjoy their time. Again, add some new instruments. These music instruments were added since Tall Tree Arboretum and nothing new was added since PNW acquired it. Everything is old there. Total disappointment.
3. They charge separate fee for the train room. On top of the general disappointing experience, you have to pay extra for the train experience. They have no shame! I wonder where all this money goes to because they have students volunteering there so they save money on labor too.
Put some money back into this place for kids sake. It’s embarrassing to see how this magical place turned into ruins.

翻译：自从捐赠给普渡大学西北分校（PNW）以来，这个地方就每况愈下。我以前经常带我两个现在上高中的儿子来这里，每次都是我们美好的郊游时光。现在，PNW似乎只从这里捞钱，却对植物园本身不做任何投入。他们不重视孩子和家庭的需求，只靠举办婚礼、生日派对、迎婴派对和学校筹款活动赚钱，却一分钱都不花在翻新和维护上。真是耻辱！
以下是现在的情况：
1. 没有动物，儿童花园区域维护得很差。自从高树植物园建成以来，PNW就没有为孩子们添置过任何新的设施。所有的小房子、蜘蛛网、木制迷宫都是以前高树植物园时期的遗物。普渡大学没有新建任何游乐场，小房子周围杂草丛生，一片狼藉。请为孩子们添置一些新设备，并建造一个漂亮的游乐场。
2. 音乐区缺少或损坏了乐器，连棍子都没有。竹棍全没了，管子也找不到。这对小孩子来说太令人失望了。既然要收门票，至少应该把这个区域修好，让孩子们能玩得开心。再次强调，请添置一些新的乐器。这些乐器是高树植物园时期添加的，自从太平洋西北地区接管以来就没添置过任何新的。那里的一切都很陈旧。真是太令人失望了。
3. 火车体验室要单独收费。除了整体体验令人失望之外，你还要额外付费才能体验火车。他们真是厚颜无耻！我很好奇这些钱都花到哪里去了，因为他们有学生志愿者在那里做志愿者，这样也能节省人工成本。
为了孩子们，请把钱花在这个地方吧。看到这个曾经充满魔力的地方变成如今这般破败不堪，真是令人羞愧。
