Director’s Report
dIreCtor’S rePort Mike Perry, CPre, CYSa
We are celebrating 40 years of enriching people’s lives through recreation! Our department was established in 1976 to provide the citizens of Alpharetta with quality recreation programs, services and parks. With the support of citizens and City officials, our department has developed activities and facilities consistent with the City’s core values of Excellence, Stewardship, Integrity, Service, and Loyalty. Our focus this year is “Let’s Play it Forward” and we look forward to meeting the leisure needs of our community in the next 40 years! Please contact any member of our staff for information on how your family can enjoy and benefit from our programs and services. PoIntS oF PrIde: Meet alphie! Earlier this year, our department adopted a cute, kid-friendly mascot named Alphie, the Park Pup. Alphie is our official “Ambassador of Fun” and has helped us to enhance public awareness of the recreation programs, facilities and services available through City of Alpharetta Recreation and Parks. Promoting the benefits of leisure, health and wellness for people of all ages is Alphie’s main focus. Be on the lookout for Alphie – coming to a park near you! MoU with the City of Milton: The Memorandum of Understanding between the cities of Alpharetta and Milton, for a mutually beneficial partnership for provision of recreation and parks programs and services, has been extended another year. MoU with the City of Johns Creek: In 2016, the cities of Alpharetta and Johns Creek entered into a Memorandum of Understanding for a mutually beneficial partnership for provision of designated youth recreation programs in Spring and Fall 2016. The terms of this partnership are reviewed annually to ensure the goals meet the objectives of the arrangement. alpharetta Bike Share Program: Explore your City of Parks! In Spring 2016, the City of Alpharetta implemented a Bike Share Program to provide residents and visitors a bike-friendly transportation alternative. Bike “docking” stations are located in designated areas along Alpharetta’s Big Creek Greenway for people to access. Each user must set up an account at www.zagster.com/Alpharetta. Bikes can be rented by accessing a website account or through Zagster’s mobile app. First 3 hours of use each day are at no cost. Each additional hour is $3, with a cap of $24 per day.
