Local kids having fun playing in the corn box at Sylvia Bailey Park’s fall fun days.

Lee’s Summit Parks & Recreation • LSPARKS.NET

Letter from the Interim ADMINISTRATOR Thank you for taking the time to check out this edition of Lee’s Summit Illustrated. If you and your family haven’t visited Sylvia Bailey Park’s fall fun days, I would encourage you to do so starting in September. You can get lost in our corn maze, climb the “hay mountain,” play farm games, or enjoy yourself in our corn box like the kiddos on the front cover. Speaking from personal experience, I would recommend you check all pockets before you leave the park to avoid kernels of corn in your dryer! For the more adventurous, we also have “Flashlight Fridays.” Same farm experience, but with an added twist... You play at night with flashlights! Turn to page 4 for a complete list of activities and events at Sylvia Bailey Park.

Our staff takes to heart the motto “Every Age, Every Season” and I’m confident you will be impressed with the quantity and diversity of programming provided to our community.

Of course, many of our programs and activities would not be successful without the continued support and dedication of our volunteers. Did you know, in 2016 over 3,300 volunteers contributed over 98,000 hours to support LSPR and the youth sports associations, providing a value of over $2.4 million to our community? Perhaps you’re interested in volunteering with LSPR? If so, we’ve made it easy for you to identify volunteer opportunities. Look for the “Volunteer In Parks” (VIP) logo next to the program and/or event. When you find something of interest, simply contact LSPR and we will help you get started.

LSPR continues to offer a wide range of special events and in this issue we have provided a “Calendar of Events” on page 3. To make it even more useful, we’ve perforated the page so you can tear it out and keep it in a convenient location for quick reference. The listed events will take place at numerous locations including Legacy Park Amphitheater, Summit Waves, Gamber Community Center, and Sylvia Bailey Park.

Finally, for those who are interested in upcoming improvements to your park system, I encourage you to check out pages 5, 16, and 17 to read about Hartman Park, Howard Park, Summit Park, Lea McKeighan Park, and the Rock Island Connector. LSPR has a long and successful history of engaging our community and we continue to seek your input and involvement as we work on current and future projects.

I look forward to seeing you in the parks.

Joe Snook, CPRP | Interim Administrator 220 SE Green Street | Lee’s Summit, MO 64063 816.969.1504 | fax: 816.969.1515 | www.lsparks.net

WHAT’S HAPPENING with LSPR?

HARTMAN PARK

Charles David Hartman Memorial Park is a 20-acre park off of Pryor Road and is primarily used as an adult softball complex. An $800k renovation occurred in 2009 to update softball fields and lighting. LSPR is currently upgrading the playground equipment with a 25’ embankment slide, a cargo net climber, and more.

These renovations are on schedule to be completed this summer, totaling $200k. Additionally, a Splashpad and other amenities will be added in the next 2-3 years.

HOWARD PARK

Master planning for this 22-acre park is currently underway.

LSPR will work with a park planning and landscape architectural firm to map out improvements with $200k budgeted. A Splashpad and restrooms will be installed in 2018. There will also be additional phased improvements to the trail, the playground, and other amenities as they are identified in the master plan.

SUMMIT PARK

You may have seen as you drive down 50-Hwy that the recognizable shelter here was demolished. This was due to structural issues, but presented us with a great opportunity to revitalize Summit Park. A master plan for improvements will begin this summer. With $600k budgeted for improvements next year, plans may include a new playground, Pickleball courts, tennis court upgrades, improved parking and access, as well as a brand-new shelter which will house more people than the previous shelter.

ROCK ISLAND CONNECTOR

An inactive railroad line, the Rock Island Line, which runs through Lee’s Summit was acquired by Jackson County in spring 2016. The 15.6 mile corridor extends from the Truman Sports Complex to the south Lee’s Summit corporate boundary with 7 miles going through Lee’s Summit and is scheduled for a “rail-to-trail” conversion in fall 2017. LSPR is working on linkages to our Greenway System and from the proposed end point of the Rock Summit Island Line to the Katy Trail near Pleasant Hill.

This summer, Lee’s Summit Parks & Recreation plans to begin construction at the 10-acre park located at the northeast corner of Chipman & Douglas, Lea McKeighan North (LMN). You may already be familiar with this property’s counterpart just south of Chipman, Lea McKeighan South (LMS).

Aesthetic The renovations will maintain a similar look and feel to that found at LMS after the improvements made there in 2014. This will include such finishes as Craftsman picnic shelters and trellises, limestone, and creative storm water retention techniques.

Features A new 8,000 square-foot Ice-Skating Rink

has many Lee’s Summit residents excited. The rink will convert to Pickleball Courts in warmer months. A Ropes Course Adventure Playground and another Splashpad (in addition to the Splashpad at Miller J. Fields Park), walking trails, additional skate park features, open play field space, 180 parking spots, and increased lighting will be welcome amenities to park-goers!

Cost & Completion The estimated cost of these improvements is between $4.5m and $5m and is anticipated to be complete in the spring of 2018.

communities throughout the United States that demonstrate excellence in long-range planning, resource management and innovative approaches to delivering superb park and recreation services with fiscally sound business practices. Only two other Missouri cities have achieved this recognition—Columbia and Springfield.

CAPRA Accredited The Commission for Accreditation of Park and Recreation Agencies (CAPRA) administers a rigorous program based on self-assessment and peer review using national standards of best practice to better promote the quality of agency services and delivery systems. LSPR was initially accredited in 2003, re-accredited in 2008, and again in 2013. Only four Missouri agencies have achieved this standard of compliance (Chesterfield, Clayton, Kansas City, and Lee's Summit), and 140 nationally.
