LEADERSHIP CORNER

Leisure

As we near the completion of our Comprehensive Parks Master Plan, I am looking back on everything we have accomplished. Fifty years ago, Parks and Rec was a oneperson department that focused on developing community greenspaces and introducing organized athletics. Since then, we have expanded what we offer beyond athletics to include therapeutic recreation, wheelchair sports, disc golf, pickleball, academic programming, and so much more. All our efforts have a common goal: to care, connect, cultivate, coach, and commit to offering an opportunity for you to increase your quality of life. We want to create a community where residents feel at home, where everyone belongs. We are doing everything we can to achieve that goal and looking forward to what we have planned for the next fifty years!
