TAKE A TOUR:

Community Center Project Coming to Life It’s almost time to break ground on the Westerville Community Center Expansion Project. Beginning this edition, we are taking a closer look at specific new and upcoming amenities.

Let’s start where it all begins, the main entry upgrades, including the customer service desk and atrium, will be a true guest experience. And one of the most popular spots in the building: aquatics. Upgrades and additions to the pool are among the most exciting in the expansion plan.

Westerville Parks & Recreation Director Randy Auler says counter space will be styled after modern hotel front desks, with individual check-in and service stations to maximize personal interaction with staff members.

“We toured Community Centers across the region and kept coming back to how innovative yet personal some centers have been to adopt practices in the hospitality industry,” said Auler. “We really appreciated the idea and know it will be greatly successful here. If there’s one thing we hear all the time, it’s how much visitors appreciate the friendliness and helpful attitudes of staff.

We’ll be even more accessible with this set-up.”

Along with more spacious arrival plaza and expanded parking, the main entry will be much more inviting, says Auler.

Central (main) entry with updated drop-off lane and walkway.

New warm water therapy pool for individuals working through rehabilitation or needing relief for tired muscles plus additional programming space for swim lessons.

The Watering Hole, the official name of the indoor park, has changed little since the Center’s opening in 2001. At the time, the indoor pools were among the most modern and innovative in comparison to other centers across the nation. With the expansion project, space and style will be transformed in the aquatics area.

Auler is most eager to introduce interactive water slides. The experience, he says, will practically eliminate potential boredom from a standard slide that uses only moving water and gravity.

The pool will soon feature slides that incorporate lights and scoring/gaming systems to record speed and accuracy.

“I like to call this ‘competitive water sliding,’” said Auler. “Imagine your kids competing to see who gets the highest score per slide.

They may be sliding all day.”

The aquatics area will also feature the addition of a warm water therapy pool. These pools are commonly used for rehabilitation purposes as well as relaxation. To house these new amenities, the pool area will expand further into the current green space to the southwest of the building, which is currently vacant.

In the winter edition of the Community Recreation Guide, we’ll take a closer look at the integration of the Older Adult Center, a demonstration kitchen, new fitness space and a social lounge.

Never Forget:

FIRST RESPONDERS PARK SET TO EXPAND

Planning is underway for the expansion of Westerville’s First Responders Park (FRP), located at 374 W. Main St. The park was first dedicated in 2010 to honor the service and sacrifice of all first responders. The centerpiece to the park is a section of steel known as “C-40” from the north tower of the World Trade Center that fell during the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001.

Since that time, FRP has become a go-to gathering place for events recognizing first responders, including the annual 9/11 Observance ceremony and a memorial service held for Westerville Division of Police Officers Anthony Morelli and Eric Joering, who were killed in the line of duty in February 2018.

“First Responders Park has long been considered for expansion because of its size and the persistent road noise that can be disruptive to events. The tragic loss our community experienced this year only emphasized our need for more space to honor our local first responders who have made the ultimate sacrifice,” said Randy Auler, Westerville Parks and Recreation Director.

A committee including the Westerville Chiefs of Police and Fire, as well as other City representatives, worked together with landscape architecture firms POD Design and McGill Smith Punshon to create the concepts for the park upgrades.

Both firms donated their services free of charge in honor of Officers Morelli and Joering.

Concepts of planned updates include extending the park further north. A path curls around the park, allowing attendees to take in the full experience as they observe dedicated markers for first responder agencies. Commemorative

elements, like a large water feature, will also be integrated into the space. Plans include a center lawn providing enough space for events, speakers and music during community remembrance events. The concepts were thoughtfully planned, with attention to detail paid to creating a space with a daytime and nighttime personality. All elements of the existing park, including commemorative bricks, will be incorporated into the redesigned space.

The improvements are estimated to cost $1 million, half of which has already been provided by the State of Ohio which generously donated $500,000 toward the project to be used in fiscal year 2018. Find status updates about this project at www.westerville.org/FRP. Join us in honoring those citizens who step-up in a crisis as we remember 9/11 in the shadow of “C-40”. See page 19 for more information.

City to Launch

Military Pole Banner Program On Veterans Day, many family members of military servicemen and women or veterans will share images of their loved ones on social media. Now residents can have their military heroes recognized in Uptown Westerville.

The City of Westerville is launching a military banner program to honor the sons and daughters of our City who are currently serving or hold Veteran status from a branch of the U.S. Armed Forces (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard) by displaying full-color, double-sided banners featuring their military photos in the Uptown-area.

Coming Soonn to Uptow

e.

Westervill

Banners will be displayed during the month of May and then again in November. They will be distributed to those who have purchased them the first week of December.

Applications will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis beginning Monday, Jan. 7- Friday, March 1. Applicants are encouraged to use the time before the start date to scan their military member’s images and ensure it is high-resolution for print quality purposes.

A portion of the $130 cost will go to support the Westerville Parks Foundation. There are a limited number of poles available. Once this quota has been filled, applicants will have the option of being added to a waitlist for next year.

The applicant must be an immediate family member (spouse, child, parent, sibling, grandchild or legal guardian) of the service member.

Aroundt h e

City Cleveland Avenue and Altair Parkway in Westerville showcasing the new Renaissance Marriott hotel.

The City of Westerville is focused on keeping residents on the move with safe roadways ready to support future generations of travelers. Ten years ago, the City promised residents streets would be improved, specifically neighborhood streets rated in less than “good” condition would be improved to “good” or “better” within 12 years.

Find the steps we’re taking to keep this promise on the GoWesterville interactive map. Visit www.westerville.org/ construction for updates on major capital improvement projects in the City including Cleveland Avenue/Schrock Road, the Uptown Improvements Project and more.

Cleveland Avenue and Schrock Road construction is scheduled to be complete in fall 2018.

Look Ahead to 2019 UPTOWN IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT The City is committed to keeping the Uptown-area physically and economically vibrant. This effort includes pavement resurfacing and sidewalk replacements along State Street, between Walnut and Home Streets to bring them in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Learn more about the investments being made in the heart of the City at www.westerville.org/ construction.

NEW ROADS AT WESTAR PLACE From the opening of the Renaissance Marriott hotel to new amenities and services like the COTA CMAX Bus Rapid Transit line, it is clear to see that business is thriving in Westar Place. Infrastructure improvements must be made to ensure sustained growth in the area. In 2019, this includes the extension of Altair Parkway and Westar Boulevard, as well as the construction of a new road connecting Polaris and Altair Parkways. Healthy development is good for the business and residential communities in Westerville, bringing income tax to fund City services, plus the creation and retention of jobs. Learn more about economic development efforts in the City at business.westerville.org.

IMPROVEMENTS TO WESTERVILLE PARKS The Westerville Parks and Recreation team works continuously to provide better experiences for residents and visitors. Visit the GoWesterville interactive map at www.westerville.org/construction and select the “Parks” tab for information about projects impacting the City’s recreation spaces.

The “American Issue” Nods to

WESTERVILLE’S ROLE IN U.S. HISTORY

The American Issue was commissioned for the City of Westerville by Bruce Bailey, a lifetime Westerville resident and City Law Director. The sculpture recognizes the City as the home of the 18th Amendment.

In the early 1900s, Westerville was a rural village consisting of 1,500 citizens, many of whom moved here to work for the Anti-Saloon League. The amendment gave birth to the era known as Prohibition, which in turn influenced a tumultuous time in our nation and the way we live today.

called it a ‘noble experiment’ “ They where people were willing to put their country first.

-BRUCE BAILEY Westerville Resident and City Law Director

“

Westerville has many historic distinctions, but none as unique as its role in the 18th Amendment to the U. S. Constitution. This amendment prohibited the manufacture, sale or transportation of “intoxicating liquors” in the United States. In June, a new piece of privately-funded public art, The American Issue, was installed in the Westerville City Hall Courtyard, 21 S. State St.

The Anti-Saloon League was located where the Westerville Public Library sits today. It waged an unprecedented political campaign to successfully champion Prohibition which is a complex issue dealing with the struggle between government regulation and individual rights. With language advocating both the 18th and 21st Amendments, The American Issue acknowledges Westerville’s unique historic role and captures the complexity of the Prohibition story.

The sculpture, created by Columbus-born artist Matthew Gray Palmer, was donated to the City.

“During the Prohibition era, people were willing to put their country first before themselves, hoping that outlawing alcohol would result in a better country and society,” said Bailey. “They called it the ‘noble experiment,’ but in the end, the nation learned it can’t legislate morality. The 18th Amendment is important because, by its passage and repeal, our democracy demonstrated the strength and resiliency of its representative nature.”

A video detailing the process for bringing the sculpture to the City and other facts about the public art piece can be found at www.westerville. org/americanissue. For more information on Westerville’s historic role in Prohibition, visit the Anti-Saloon League at the five-star Westerville Public Library or visit www. westervillelibrary.org/AntiSaloon.

City Designates Parks “NO SMOKING” Zones Westerville parks are now officially “no smoking” zones after Westerville City Council adopted an ordinance to prohibit smoking and the use of electronic cigarettes in community parks. The legislation is an effort to reduce and eliminate secondhand smoke and the resulting negative smoking effects including litter and strong odor.

At sites most commonly frequented by children, the ban will also help protect young lungs at play.

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), secondhand smoke exposure contributes to approximately 41,000 deaths among nonsmoking adults and 400 deaths in infants each year.

Secondhand smoke can cause strokes, lung cancer and coronary heart disease in adults.

The CDC emphasizes pronounced negative health effects for children. When exposed to secondhand smoke, children are at an increased risk for sudden infant death syndrome, acute respiratory infections, middle ear disease, more severe asthma, respiratory symptoms and slowed lung growth.

Electronic cigarettes are included and specifically prohibited in the ban. The use of an e-cigarette, often called “vaping,” has become popular as either an alternative or in addition to regular cigarette or tobacco use. However, vaping is not without harm to bystanders.

The CDC says e-cigarette aerosol that users inhale from the device and exhale can contain harmful and potentially dangerous substances, including nicotine; ultrafine particles; flavoring such as diacetyl, a chemical linked to a serious lung disease; volatile organic compounds; cancercausing chemicals; and heavy metals such as nickel, tin and lead.

The ban is inclusive of all 43 Westerville parks and more than 40 miles of recreational trails along the Westerville Bike & Walkway system. Westerville joins several other Central Ohio communities banning the use of tobacco and smoking in parks. Columbus, Dublin, Powell and Grove City all have same or similar prohibitions in parks on the books.

In partnership with Franklin County Public Health, the Westerville Parks & Recreation Department has placed “No Smoking” signs in all City-owned parks and green spaces. Additionally, Parks and Recreation will promote smoking cessation programs.

The ordinance has been in effect since August 2, 2018. For more information, please visit www.westerville.org/parks.

INTERNET PURCHASE EXCHANGE SITES ENDORSED BY WPD Social media, apps, websites and other online options are quickly replacing traditional garage and yard sales. On Facebook alone, there are multiple groups for buyers and sellers. A “New Albany and Westerville Areas Buy Sell Trade” group has more than 11,000 members. “Westerville Yardsale Group” has more than 4,000, as does “Westerville Steals and Deals.” Simply put, advertising housewares and used items online has significantly greater exposure to potential buyers.

While the vast majority of Internet-based sales between neighbors are honest and friendly, there are stories that warrant safety precautions. Robberies, fraud and scams have been reported over time, which led public safety officials to issue warnings, tips for transactions and special sites to safely exchange items or money.

Designating a site to maximize the safety of both the buyer and the seller, the Westerville Division of Police (WPD) has introduced an “Internet Purchase Exchange Zone” program. The WPD lobby at 29 S. State St. and the Westerville City Hall lobby at 21 S. State St. are offered as exchange sites for parties agreeing to a buy, sell or trade arrangement. The WPD lobby is open day and night, while City Hall is available only on weekdays during normal business hours (8 a.m. – 5 p.m.).

The sites feature signage and offer some enhanced safety features that may not be available at other public sites, including a staff presence and surveillance (where available). Still, WPD Lieutenant Ron McMillin says safe Internet exchange sites are no substitute for caution and common sense when it comes to buying, selling and trading from unknown sources.

“The idea is to use a place like this instead of your home,” he said. “We want people to use these locations with confidence, but also avoid the mistake of trusting too quickly. Never share your personal information, especially usernames, passwords and financial information. Pay cash when you can, especially when you’re meeting with someone for the first time. Generally, stay aware of your surroundings; and call us if you don’t feel safe.”

WPD has registered the two sites on the national registry of safe trade locations online at www.safetradestations.com.

Public Power Week

Sustainable Programs Empower Electric Division Customers

Public Power Week occurs the first full week in October. During this time, the Westerville Electric Division encourages customers to take note of the many programs available that empower residents to help reduce costs and energy consumption.

APPLIANCE RECYCLING: Trade in old appliances in exchange for a $50 pre-paid VISA debit card or digital debit card download. Visit www.westerville.org/ takemyfridge to get started.

ECOSMART CHOICE®: Electricity is generated from a variety of fuel types including fossil fuels, nuclear and renewable sources. Nearly 63% of all electricity generated in the U.S. last year came from fossil fuels like natural gas, coal and petroleum.

According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), fossil fuel sources were responsible for 35% of energy-related carbon dioxide emissions in the United States in 2016. However, once electricity is generated and sent to the grid, there is no real way to track the source. EcoSmart Choice® allows consumers to support renewable energy equivalent to a portion of their electric usage. Learn more at www.westerville.org/electric.

NEST RUSH HOUR REWARDS: Nest Rush Hour Rewards helps put future electric rates in the hands of customers by allowing them to help the City keep peak usage down during the hot summer months.

When a Westerville Electric Division customer who owns a Nest thermostat opts in to the program, they will automatically reduce energy usage during “Rush Hour” events. Rush Hour events occur in summer months during specific high heat and humidity, weekdays from 2-6 p.m. The program will begin again in summer 2019 but you can still take advantage of the $75 rebate. Get started at www.westerville.org/nest.

Find more information about these and other programs on the City’s website at www.westerville.org/electric.

Set Aside Old Holiday Lights For Recycling Dusting off your holiday decor soon? Don’t throw your holiday lights in the garbage. Instead, keep them somewhere handy for the Westerville Electric Division Holiday Light Recycling Collection, beginning Monday, Nov. 19 from 8 a.m. - 4 p.m. at the Electric Division’s facility, 139 E. Broadway Ave. The program will end on Thursday, Jan. 31. at 4 p.m.

The Westerville Electric Division is offering one highefficiency LED light bulb for one strand of old lights. Each household may receive up to three new bulbs from the Electric Division. However, there is no limit to how many stands of lights may be recycled.

10

Think of this program as the gift that keeps on giving.

Residents get old, tangled lights out of the house and receive a new, long-lasting bulb; the Electric Division removes inefficient holiday lights from draining the power grid; Rumpke, the City’s refuse and recycling vendor, reduces holiday string lights tangled in their equipment.

And, because the old lights will be taken and safely recycled, it’s beneficial for the environment.

Last year, Westerville residents helped recycle 500 lbs of holiday lights through this program. Find more information online at www.westerville.org/electric.

Fire Prevention Week is Oct. 7-13

Westerville Fire Encourages Residents to

“Look. Listen. Learn.”

This Fire Prevention Week, the Westerville Division of Fire is embracing the theme “Look. Listen. Learn. Be aware. Fire can happen anywhere” through education and entertainment. The week will again begin with the annual Fire Prevention Week Open House at all Westerville Fire Stations from 1-4 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 7. Firefighters will present special demonstrations at Station 111, located at 400 W. Main St. during this time. For Westerville Division of Fire Chief Brian Miller, the goal of the day is to present important information alongside plenty of fun.

“We’ll have a puppet show and games for the youth in attendance and adults will walk away with important lessons about how to keep their families safe in their homes,” Chief Miller said. “I encourage every resident in Westerville and Blendon Township to attend this important event.”

This year Westerville firefighters will drive home the purpose of looking for potential existing fire hazards in households, listening for the sound of smoke alarms and learning two ways out of every room.

Find additional details about Fire Prevention Week at www.westerville.org/fire.

Connecting Residents to Resources

WFD Service Coordinator offers Preventative Help A new Westerville Division of Fire (WFD) service – and person – is helping to connect Westerville and Blendon Township residents with critical programs in the region. Francie Hughlock joined WFD in February as a community services coordinator. Her assistance is offered free of charge and completely optional to residents-in-need as a result of a collaboration with National Church Residences, which provides Hughlock’s services to the City at no cost.

With 10-years of experience helping connect people, especially older adults, with helpful programming, Hughlock is focused on bridging the gap between needs and fulfillment. Once she gains consent from a resident, the work begins. A big focus of her work with older adults is connecting them with resources to help them maintain a good life in their own homes.

According to WFD Chief Brian Miller, paramedics will spend up to 20 minutes with a resident treating and evaluating symptoms before transporting them to a hospital. While they are able to tell patients about available resources, follow-up services are outside their scope.

Francie Hughlock, WFD Service Coordinator

Hughlock acts as an advocate for residents in need who have struggled to connect with family members, health care providers and community resources, spending hours with each person she helps. She adds a personal touch to each visit, helping to resolve issues like in-home fall risks and connecting residents with addiction services.

In addition to WFD patients, Hughlock works with other City agencies like the Westerville Division of Police and Code Enforcement Division to help residents they identify as potentially needing assistance. She can be contacted at francie. hughlock@westerville.org or by calling (614) 551-6927.

Leaf Collection Program BEGINS OCT. 15 The 2018 Leaf Collection Program for the City of Westerville kicks off Monday, Oct. 15. The Westerville Public Service Department has scheduled five collections per household through Friday, Dec. 21. Collections occur seven-10 days from the assigned “set out” date.

The Public Service Department recommends the following tips and guidelines for efficient leaf collection: • Rake all leaves to the tree lawn (between the sidewalk and the street), but not in the street, the night before the start of your scheduled collection.

Kevin Weaver, Westerville Public Service Director, encourages residents to keep leaves on the tree lawn and not in the street, curb inlets and catch basins. He also asks that residents remove things that could get in the way of equipment such as cars and basketball hoops.

• Ensure leaf piles are free of large sticks, twigs and any trash or debris that could cause damage to the leaf collection equipment and injuries to personnel.

“Piling leaves in the street or curb inlets can cause a hazard,” said Weaver. “These mechanisms are in place to help prevent street flooding. Leaves can clog drains and cause water to back up onto the street, putting drivers at risk when it rains.”

• Avoid parking vehicles in front of leaves during collection times.

The City collected about 4,500 cubic yards of leaves in 2017. Leaf collection schedules are mailed to residents in late September. For more information about the program, schedule and status updates visit www. westerville.org/leafcollection. Please contact the Public Service Department with any questions or concerns at (614) 901-6740 or publicservice@westerville.org.

Weaver says keeping leaves on the tree lawns also helps to protect downstream water quality.

Residents who miss their leaf collection date can always place leaves in paper, biodegradable bags or other yard waste receptacles for Monday’s yard waste collection.

HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE COLLECTION Back in September Each year, the City of Westerville Public Service Department hosts a spring and fall Household Hazardous Waste Collection in partnership with the Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio (SWACO). These events provide residents an opportunity to properly dispose of potentially harmful chemicals. The fall collection will be Saturday, Sept. 8 from 8 a.m. - 2 p.m. at the Westerville Public Service Complex, 350 Park Meadow Rd. This program keeps dangerous materials out of local landfills. When harmful chemicals are stored on land, they can leak from their containers contaminating soil and groundwater. These collection dates provide residents an opportunity to remove potentially harmful substances from the home for safe disposal, not in the home’s trash can. Materials like paint, batteries and even nail polish can pose a risk to refuse workers as trash compactors can cause combustion.

SWACO officials recommend residents scan packaging for words like “poison,” “corrosive,” “flammable” and notes to use in a well-ventilated space. If they are included, it’s a good sign the product should be stored safely until the next Household Hazardous Waste Collection.

12

For a complete list of acceptable items visit www.westerville.org/ hhw. To dispose of items between the two events, SWACO has a permanent Household Hazardous Waste Center at 645 E. 8th Ave. Find more information at www.swaco.org.

TRACK YOUR Westerville Road Warriors

The City of Westerville will debut an interactive map this fall to help residents better track leaf and snow removal progress.

During leaf collection season and snow events, Westerville Service Department staff are hard at work clearing tree lawns and City streets.

While residents indicated an overall satisfaction with these services in the 2016 Resident Survey, the City saw an opportunity to improve day-to-day communication about the progress of our Road Warriors. With this new portal, residents can see to-the-minute results of crews as they move about the City.

During leaf collection and snow events, residents will see what streets were treated in the last two, six, 12 and 24-hour time frames, in addition to selecting specific roads for more detailed data.

Find more information on the City’s website www.westerville.org/roadwarriors.

WELCOMING WESTERVILLE’S

Newest First Responders Westerville welcomed four full-time firefighters and two full-time police officers this summer.

Firefighters Ryan Wamsley, Stephen Burger, Andy Taylor and Andy Saunders were sworn in at the July 2 Westerville City Council meeting.

Wamsley has been with the Westerville Division of Fire (WFD) as a part-time firefighter since 2012. He began his career as an EMT in Chicago before moving to Westerville and earning his paramedic certification.

Burger was an active member in the Fire and EMS Boy Scout Explorer Program with the Central Ohio Joint Fire District before attending the Columbus State Community College Grant LifeLink Paramedic Program. He started as a part-time WFD firefighter in January 2017.

Calendar Merges with Community Recreation Guide TAKE YOUR PHOTOS TO SOCIAL MEDIA TO SHARE YOUR #WESTERVILLE MOMENTS Have you noticed the quarterly Community Calendar pages included in the Community Recreation Guide since last winter? These new pages will replace the publication of the annual City-issued Community Calendar, beginning this year.

The merging of the two publications reduces paper waste significantly and also streamlines event listings with more frequency (quarterly vs. annually) so that scheduling changes have a better chance of being captured.

According to Christa Dickey, Community Affairs Director for the City of Westerville, this move is part of a strategic objective to increase the distribution of news, information and events in digital formats, including social media, text messaging (via opt-in alerts) and other methods.

Dickey says the best part of the calendar—resident and visitor-submitted photos—will continue.

“We ask our residents every two years how they are getting their City information and how they prefer to get it, and we make adjustments based on that feedback,” said Dickey. “For us, that means being efficient with our printing costs and moving more information online and to our social accounts. Printing the calendar in quarterly segments is also a good way to get the most current information.”

“We will continue to ask for and publish photos from residents and visitors in our parks, neighborhoods, Uptown and other special events and places in Westerville,” she said. “If you tag us in your photos on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, we may reach out for permission to share with the rest of the community.”

Share your photos with us on social media by using #westerville, #acitywithinapark or #westervillestrong.

The best resource for finding the most up-to-date information and event listings is the City website. Visit www.westerville.org/calendar or click “Events” at the top of the page to access the monthly calendar.

The

Arts Westerville in

Towers Park

Not just a playground and shelter

The 2014 Westerville Parks and Recreation Open Space (PROS) master plan called for new and existing park projects to incorporate signature experiences and spaces throughout the City of Westerville. With that in mind, the initiative on how to incorporate art into parks throughout the City began. In October 2017, the Parks and Recreation Department initiated a “Call for Artists” to commission an artistically designed playground and shelter for Towers Park.

The importance of art accessibility in parks is central to the Public Art in Westerville Spaces program. This structure will serve a practical purpose as a shelter and as a large-scale public art installation. This shelter was designed by artist Anthony M. Ball of Tork Collaborative Arts, a full-service, three-dimensional art, fabrication and production studio in Columbus.

Their work can be found in many museums, public parks and landscapes, as well as healthcare, hospitality, commercial and retail environments.

in the artist’s studio. Some visual cues were taken from the park’s existing color palette and landscape, including the electric towers for which the park is named.

“The canopy will be central to a children’s play area and experience, so it was important to keep that client in mind.

I have spent much of my career bypassing galleries in favor of accessible spaces like parks, gardens and landscapes,” said Ball. “My art doesn’t require explanation, it requires interaction.”

The dual-duty shelter and art installation is titled “Nature’s First Green” with estimated completion in late summer.

Ball calls this structural canopy his most ambitious project to date. His site-specific d esign b reaks f rom t raditional park shelters and will be a first-of-its-kind in construction as well. In lieu of traditional construction materials like wood and asphalt shingles, the aluminum canopy will be tiled with a colorful mosaic field composed of hundreds of semi-transparent tiles, each piece hand-tinted and cast

AQUATICS

COMMUNITY CENTER ANNUAL MAINTENANCE SCHEDULED AUG. 20 - SEPT. 2

Each year, during the two weeks prior to Labor Day, the Westerville Community Center undergoes an annual maintenance period when major renovation projects and deep cleaning takes place. This is done in an effort to continue the Gold Medal tradition by providing the highest quality facilities, while minimizing inconvenience to guests. The annual maintenance schedule coincides with a time on the calendar when the outdoor facilities are readily available including the Highlands Park Aquatic Center and all Westerville parks. In fact, all Ultimate PASSholders with the Community Center receive free access to the Aquatic Center during this time.

30

In addition to closures in many areas of the Center, the entire Watering Hole including lap, leisure and slide pools, as well as the hot tub will be closed.

This allows for draining, cleaning and general maintenance of the pools and deck area that can not be done throughout the year.

All swim lessons and aqua aerobics are scheduled to begin in the fall season after Labor Day. Classes and lesson information for these classes may be found on the following pages and at www.westerville.org/registration.

For a breakdown of scheduled closures, see page 19 or visit www.westerville.org/parks.

FENCING GAINS POPULARITY

AS PARKS AND RECREATION EXPANDS CLASSES Fencing was one of the first sports to be played in the Olympics at the 1896 Games in Athens, a tradition that continues today. There are three forms of fencing: foil, épée and sabre. Each uses a different type of sword and follows different rules. Once an important form of self-defense, fencing has become a compelling sport that requires strength and agility—both mentally and physically.

This year, four new fencing classes have been added to the fall line-up with Westerville Parks and Recreation and cover youth through adult. Through instructions, drills, games and supervised bouts, participants will learn good technique, sportsmanship, self-discipline, gain quick reflexes while having lots of fun!

42

Each class is an excellent introduction to this dynamic sport and is designed to provide a well-rounded overview, as well as give participants the ability to be physically active. Classes will be led by former Colombian national team member, Isabel Alvarez, head coach at Profencing.

ADAPTIVE & INCLUSIVE EXPANDING SPORTS FOR ALL PLAYERS

What began as a demonstration sport in 1956 in the Netherlands has become a popular and exciting addition to the Paralympics, making its debut as a competition sport in the 1980s. Sit Volleyball rules state players should be in a seated position with their torso (from shoulders to rear-end) touching the court at all times. A typical ready position is with the player sitting on the floor, both legs in front slightly bent and arms ready to push in any direction.

In 2005, Club Sit Volleyball was introduced and played with teams consisting of those both differently-abled and not differently-abled. The idea is that it is open to all individuals and any skill level. Being in a seated position provides a level playing field brings athletes of all abilities together.

Westerville Parks and Recreation provides an inclusive environment for all and is excited to offer this new opportunity for all members of the community. For more information about this new class addition, see page 49.

PRESCHOOL HANBY PARK A FAMILY FAVORITE

Westerville’s youngest residents have a new park where they can run, play and splash in. Hanby Park, 115 E. Park St. opened this spring to a great crowd.

Hundreds of community members came to celebrate the opening of the playground, complete with a 24-foottall climbing tower with two slides, a preschool playset, swings and new sprayground. These new features join a Blue Star Memorial Marker honoring men and women in the military, donated by the Westerville Garden Club and the train depot built in 2012 that offers shaded seating, restrooms and a water fountain. President’s Grove has been maintained, providing treasured green space in the area.

Hanby Park is open during daylight hours, seven-days a week. Pack a picnic, grab a towel and the family and enjoy the fun right in the heart of Westerville.

Community fun at Hanby Splashpad during grand opening celebration.

DID YOU KNOW? The play structure that once stood in Hanby Park has been refurbished and donated to an orphanage in Manzanillo, Mexico bringing joy to the children at the Casa Hogar Los Angelitos orphanage.

The City of Westerville dedicated the Thomas James Knox Rink on Saturday, June 30 during a special event with the Columbus Blue Jackets introducing street and roller hockey league and clinic play with the newest facility at Westerville’s Alum Creek Park South, 535 Park Meadow Rd. It is a legacy project completed in partnership with Jim and Lisa Knox of Westerville, who lost their 14-year-old son Thomas, an avid hockey player, unexpectedly in 2015.

More than 400 youth ages six to 14 came out to learn the sport of hockey at the Try Hockey for Free Day with the Columbus Blue Jackets. The 60-minute clinic covered the basics skills of stick-handling, passing and shooting. Skills N’ Drills classes with the

Street Jackets were so well attending throughout the summer that a new session is scheduled for fall that includes a Level II for those that have either taken the summer class or know a bit about the sport already.

Also available this fall is a new Learn to Skate program with the Ohio Roller Hockey Club. Students will learn the basics of skating while being introduced to hockey skills.

TREE PLANTING IN TIME FOR FALL

Cooler temperatures mean fall is around the corner. If you are planning to plant a tree, this is the perfect time of year for both your private yard and throughout the City. The Westerville Urban Forestry City Tree Master Plan has a goal of increasing the City’s tree canopy from 34 to 40%. Increased canopy cover will help decrease stormwater runoff and increase the amount of carbon removed from the air. Fine particulates are filtered from the air and energy costs are reduced by shading homes, among many other benefits.

The Urban Forestry team is working to accomplish this goal through a number of different management plans and programs, one of which is planting the right tree in the right place. This method plants larger species trees where space permits and smaller species trees where space is limited helping to provide a more sustainable urban forest into the future. In addition to the right tree, right place, the crabapple management plan is working to remove undesirable and unhealthy crabapple trees and replace them with healthier more diverse species that are appropriate for each location. The team is also working with the Westerville Engineering Division to come up with alternative solutions to preserve trees as

60

part of the sidewalk reconstruction program, as well as working with volunteer groups to plant new street trees in high priority planting locations along Westerville streets.

What can residents do to help? Plant a tree in your own yard. “Private property makes up a large portion of the City and is an area that residents can have a large impact on,” said Matt Ulrey, Urban Forestry Manager with Westerville Parks and Recreation. “If you need to remove a tree from your yard plan to plant a replacement.

If possible, plant a species that will be a large canopy tree that will provide your home, neighbors and the community at large with all of its benefits.”

JOIN US Autumn Arborfest 2018 will be held at Alum Creek Park North (221 W. Main St.) on Saturday, Sept. 19 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. There will be recreational tree climbing available for people of all ages. You only need to be able to walk up a flight of stairs to climb a tree using some of the newest tools in the industry. There will be demonstrations, art and many industry professionals to speak with as well as a climbing competition for local industry professionals. See page 20 for details.
