F R O M D U R H A M PA R K S & R E C R E AT I O N ' S D I R E C T O R Warm weather has arrived again after a long winter and during this season we at Durham Parks and Recreation are especially excited about being outdoors and spending time in our parks! We hope you can take advantage of the many opportunities to Play More that DPR offers throughout the summer – from cooling off at a pool or spray ground to our summer concert and movie series in a variety of parks, there are opportunities for everyone to enjoy our beautiful parks. If you haven’t yet, make sure that you take a ride, walk, or run down the American Tobacco Trail and cross the new bridge that connects the trail over I-40. This project required a large collaborative effort of many people over a long period of time, and how rewarding it is now to be able to enjoy it as the newest link in our trails system. We learned from the City of Durham’s most recent Resident Satisfaction Survey results, completed at the end of 2013, that trails and greenways are a high priority for Durham residents. We take this and other information reported in the survey results very seriously as we plan for our future and establish our priorities. Another way that we’ve recently incorporated resident feedback is through our recent Master Plan process, which concluded in 2013 and established a set of departmental goals and standards for the next 10 years. A few of the priorities you told us were important include teen programming, more programs in parks, fitness and wellness programs, and marketing what our department offers. Since receiving that feedback, we have established priority initiative teams for each of these topics and are exploring ways to expand these focus areas at DPR. We’ll keep you posted on our progress in these areas, and let you know what sort of exciting changes and programming might be coming to our department. As always, thank you for your input and keep on telling us how we can make Durham Parks and Recreation the best that it can be! Rhonda B. Parker, CPRP Director, Durham Parks and Recreation

ADOPT-A-PARK and ADOPT-A-TRAIL PROGRAMS A Great Way to Give Back - Adopt a Park or Trail! Volunteers from all over the community support Durham’s parks and trails through the AdoptA-Park and Adopt-A-Trail (APAT) programs. This program is a great opportunity for you or your organization to make a positive difference in your community. Since 2003, community groups have supported their community by adopting parks and trail segments in Durham through the Adopt-A-Park and Adopt-A-Trail (APAT) programs. DPR manages nearly 1,800 acres of parkland in more than 68 parks and more than 25 miles of greenways, and we’re still growing. The assistance we receive from adopting agencies is invaluable as we make every effort to care for our natural resources. The City of Durham’s Parks and Recreation and General Services Departments provide routine park maintenance and repairs; however, the adopting individuals and organizations give the park or trail the extra care and attention it needs. Adopters work on a variety of projects of their choosing. They have assisted with numerous cleanup, landscaping, and facility improvement projects. Any individual or organization interested in bettering our parks and trails can adopt. For additional information on the Adopt-A-Park and Adopt-A Trail programs, please visit our website: www.DPRPlayMore.org. You may also contact Mal Atkinson, at 919-560-4355 or dprvolunteers@ durhamnc.gov.
