Director’s Message

Director’s Message It’s no secret our country has struggled to maintain health and wellness during the age of TV shows, computer games and fast food restaurants.

Luckily, Hillsboro Parks & Recreation has made a commitment to promote wellness within our community. With 24 beautiful parks, miles of

trails and a wide range of facilities offering fun and

interesting programming, there are plenty of ways to stay active. An important element of wellness is getting outside. With national movements like Prescription Parks, the health benefits of visiting a park combat our sometimes unhealthy lifestyles. The trails and pathways running through our parks are perfect for a morning jog, afternoon walk, or a

leisurely evening bike ride. With Oregon weather we recognize that exercising outside isn’t always practical in our beautiful, albeit rainy state. Fortunately Hillsboro Parks & Recreation offers a

variety of fitness classes at our indoor facilities, including everything from yoga to kick boxing.

We also hope to eventually build new community recreation center at 53rd Avenue Park to even

better meet the indoor recreation needs of our growing community.

In 2009, Hillsboro banned the use of tobacco products on park property as a major step to promote healthy lifestyles. More recently, the Hillsboro Parks & Recreation Commission and City Council

approved a ban on the use of electronic cigarettes and other nicotine vaporizing devices at our parks

and facilities. This action took effect on August 1. Recently, electronic cigarettes (e-cigs) have gained

popularity, particularly among young adults. Long-term effects of secondhand exposure to the vapor these devices expel are unclear, but they do contain several known toxins, and are easily mistaken

for regular cigarettes. We think this action will help create a positive atmosphere for youth in our community and will assist in protecting the health of all park users.

So, this fall, get active and explore a new park, take a new class and breathe in the crisp, clean autumn air.

Hillsboro Plein Air Plus

Upstairs Gallery

10/7 – 11/18

8/5 – 9/16

En plein air is a French phrase meaning in the open air, and refers to the tradition of taking one’s palette and brushes (or other art-making tools) and creating art on-site in the great outdoors. Artwork from this exhibit comes from the annual Hillsboro Plein Air event, which brings local artists together to create new plein air works at vibrant outdoor locations in the region. The event has been expanded this year to incorporate a variety of artistic mediums–hence: Plein Air Plus. Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity to see the sights and scenes of Rood Bridge Park, historic Downtown Hillsboro, and Hillsboro’s Famer’s Market as rendered by the fantastic talent and imagination of local artists. An Oregon Days of Culture Event. www.oregondaysofculture.org.

Upstairs and Downstairs Galleries

Through collage and acrylics, artist Amy Mintonye weaves found images into scenes of totemic power, exploring the inner and outer forces that bear upon daily existence. From floods, gravity, and other natural forces, to systemic forces such as class inequality and alienation, Mintonye’s layered compositions unearth the patterns of struggle and resilience that define the human character. Uplifting in their beauty and symbolic nuance, these are works that remind us of art’s power to articulate the human drama and spirit.

Glencoe Creek Park 2955 NE 15th Ave.

2.2 acre park • Basketball court • Off-street parking • .21 miles of paved paths • Picnic shelter • Playground equipment

Located along Northeast 15th Avenue at Prahl Parkway, the 2.2 acre Glencoe Creek Park is bounded on the north by the Emma Jones Nature Preserve. Its open, sloping lawn area with picnic shelter set

against the natural preserve is a beautiful place to spend a summer afternoon, and the park includes a

full-sized basketball court, perfect for pickup games. The playground equipment includes three slides, a swingset, and interactive play equipment. The shelter is available on a first-come, first-served basis.

The park property, which was purchased in 1999, was part of the original Jones Farm property before being residentially zoned and subdivided for housing lots. Developed and opened in 2002, Glencoe

Creek Park’s serene setting near Intel’s Jones Farm Campus is an ideal setting for a lunchtime picnic or an afternoon stroll. The park is open from dawn till dusk.
