{
"organisation_correction": "Replace 'Lily Dale Assembly grounds' as starting point with 'Cassadaga Lakes Nature Park (maintained by Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy), with parking available off the west side of State Highway 60'",
"hiking_trails_section": "The Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy maintains two moderately developed loops within the 77-acre nature park: an easy loop (0.8 miles) and a center loop (1.8 miles). These overlapping trails separate near the parking area to provide options for different experience levels and time constraints.",
"wildlife_section": "Keep existing content but add: 'The park is noted as a premier birding destination, with more than 175 bird species having been spotted here, making it an excellent location for ornithological observation throughout the year.'",
"remove_section": "Remove or significantly revise 'Local Attractions and Cultural Context' section OR clearly separate Lily Dale as a nearby community (not trail operator), with clear attribution that it is distinct from Cassadaga Lakes Nature Park"
