Carter Lake, pictured above, is the centerpiece of Levi Carter Park, a 519.5-acre expanse of green that serves as one of Omaha’s six regional parks. Place Game for Levi Carter Park April 28 The Carter Lake Preservation Society is teaming up with Omaha by Design to host a Place Game workshop for Levi Carter Park Saturday, April 28. The event will begin at 10 a.m. at the Parkway Church of God, 1212 East Browne Street. The church is located north of the boat ramp in Levi Carter Park on Levi Carter Boulevard.   “We want to create a vision of how we can make Levi Carter Park a better place to play,” said Jeanne Eibes, president of the Carter Lake Preservation Society.  The park is home to Carter Lake, an old oxbow lake formed when the Missouri River changed course in 1877. Today, this urban body of water is shared by two cities, two counties and two states. The City of Carter Lake, Iowa, lies completely within the concave portion of the lake, and the City of Omaha and Levi Carter Park surround the lake on its convex side. It provides opportunities for water-skiing, fishing and boating.  The 519.5-acre Levi Carter Park features two baseball fields, two football fields and two basketball courts. Other amenities include paths, picnic areas, shelters, restrooms, a pavilion, fishing dock areas, a boat ramp and open space. During the workshop, trained Omaha by Design facilitators will lead small groups through Levi Carter Park, asking them to take note of what they see, hear and feel. The groups will then convene for a brainstorming session to identify opportunities for improving the area. Lunch will be provided.
