Vice President - Stephen Smith
As these words are written, Boise’s Foothills are still cloaked in winter’s white quilt. The harshest coldweather season in recent memory may still have a few punches to throw at us, and for many of us the arrival of spring can’t come soon enough.

All the more reason to look forward to the return of warm weather and all the recreational opportunities it brings. This guide offers a comprehensive overview of the many summer activities available through Boise Parks and Recreation, the Boise Public Library, the Boise WaterShed and Jim Hall Foothills Learning Center, and more. There truly is something here for everybody. Looking farther ahead, we have even more reason for anticipation. This fall will see the scheduled start of construction of the J.A. and Kathryn Albertson Family Foundation Boise Whitewater Park Phase 2. The first phase of the Whitewater Park (the recently renamed Boise River Park) is one of the great recent successes of Boise’s nationally renowned park system. Coupled with last year’s opening of the adjacent Esther Simplot Park, the Whitewater Park has quickly become a popular recreational hub just west of our city center. The expansion of the park will center on three new in-river drop structures that will create waves for all levels of kayakers, surfers, and paddle board enthusiasts. The project will also re-align the existing Greenbelt around Veterans Pond. In addition to recreational benefits, Phase 2 will improve the delivery of irrigation water to downstream farms while providing better fish habitat, shoreline stabilization, flood control, and public safety as well. Work is scheduled to be completed by Fall 2018. The wait will be much shorter for improvements at the Dick Eardley Senior Center at 690 Robbins Road, next door to the Fort Boise Community Center. Over the past nearly four decades, the center has been a tremendous resource for our city’s senior citizens, offering activities and services to benefit body, mind, and spirit— from crafts and games to classes and exercise. The center is also home to the Metro Meals on Wheels kitchen, which prepares food for delivery to hundreds of homebound seniors, not just in Boise but throughout Ada County. Management of the senior center, for many years conducted by a local non-profit organization, has recently returned to Boise Parks and Recreation. That will create more partnership opportunities with the Fort Boise Community Center and other city programs. The goal is to make an already excellent facility even more responsive and vital to our senior community. Boise is a great place to live for young and old alike. Our goal at City Hall is to ensure that we provide the services and opportunities that keep Boise livable for everyone. Enjoy the summer!

YOUTH TENNIS KIDS: 10 & UNDER TENNIS Learn the basics of tennis: grip, stroke techniques, serving and movement. Students may sign up for more than one session and need to bring a racquet. Some racquets may be available for use at the site. 10 & Under Beginner - students are learning to make consistent contact with the ball and gaining general knowledge of the game 10 & Under Intermediate - students are beginning to rally but lack consistency and footwork. Advanced - students who are consistent in a rally and can coordinate footwork when contacting the ball on the forehand and backhand. EQUIPMENT FROM THE TEN & UNDER TENNIS PROGRAM WILL BE USED AT EVERY SITE Children can learn the game of tennis using modified tennis balls and smaller courts to allow for easier learning. Balls are lower in compression: they bounce lower and don’t move as fast. This gives kids time to get to the ball and helps them develop optimal swing patterns.

BEGINNER/INTRODUCTION TO FLAMENCO
Imagine a world where Bull Fighters strut in an arena, Gypsies dance with twirling wrists and graceful arms around a sparkling river, or where a Spanish Señorita moves as elegantly and naturally as a ballerina while dancing amongst friends. This is the world of Flamenco, where every person, no matter what shape or body type can discover their inner strength and grace through dance. Lead by Estefanía, class participants will learn basic foot steps, body positioning, and the flow of arm/hand movement. As class progresses we will begin working on basic percussive steps and brazeo (arms) and how to coordinate them into a short dance piece. Through a fiery Flamenco song list we will keep our focus on dancing for fun while building our self-confidence and coordination. Styles we will try to cover: Sevillanas, Rumbas, Bulerías. No partner needed for this class!

Art classes that reflect the science of our watershed Again this summer, the Boise WaterShed is offering a series of uniquely integrated art and science classes for kids ages 5 and up. Parents may register for classes and learn along with their child. All classes are free of charge and are taught by professional artists and scientists. Together we’ll investigate an intriguing environmental concept and interpret it through an art medium. Scientists will help us explore topics such the black cottonwood trees lining our river, the pristine headwaters that provide our drinking supplies, and the tough trout that fill our waters. Students will learn printmaking, woodworking, and photography in their expressions of science; they’ll even illustrate water poetry or build an “insect hotel!” These classes are created by teams of artists and scientists so we can better understand the world in which we live, learn to keep it healthy, and produce works of art that remind us of our connection to natural systems. Each student will take home a beautifully finished object of his or her making. Snacks are provided. FREE: pre-registration required by calling 608-7300 or email: BW@cityofboise.org Select Tuesdays and Thursdays in June and July 9:30am-12:30pm for ages 5-10 and 1:30pm4:00 pm for ages 11 and up.

BOISE DEPOT
a venue as unique as you are
BOISE DEPOT
The Boise Depot is a unique venue for weddings, parties and corporate parties and fundraising events. A beautiful historic Spanish-style structure operated by the Boise Parks and Recreation Department, the Depot was opened in 1925 to elaborate fanfare in the capital city. The former Union Pacific passenger train station can accommodate 300 maximum occupancy; 165 for sit-down events. Depot amenities include The Great Hall, a 3,542-square-foot space with a soaring multistory atrium. The Great Hall once served as the building’s waiting room. The original 1925 Barkalow Brothers Newsstand is featured on the west wall. The wood and glass newsstand has been slightly restored but remains in its original form. With a splendid panoramic view of the Boise Front, the grounds include Platt Gardens, a lovely park with pathways, a gazebo and ponds. The Great Hall may be scheduled 11 months in advanced (12:01 a.m. on the 1st Day of the 11th month). FREE PUBLIC DROP-IN HOURS • 11am-5pm Sundays and Mondays • Closed on legal holidays
