The world’s longest-living people live in places that encourage natural movement. Unfortunately, new threats and challenges to America’s healthy living status continue to emerge. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) encourages communities to work together to reverse this trend to ensure Americans live longer and healthier lives. Here in Plano, we have five quality recreation centers, a tennis center, two golf courses, an extensive trail system, worldclass athletic facilities and many other amenities that provide places for people to keep moving.
OUR MISSION... The nationally accredited Plano Parks and Recreation Department operates under the following mission:
Research has also shown that longevity is related to an individual’s ability to “down shift.” If you are looking for new ways to combat stress and anxiety, see our yoga classes on Page 61 of this catalog. We also offer a Moonlight Paddle (Page 33), which offers an evening of relaxation while connecting with the sounds of nature. You may simply choose to take an evening walk on our 83 miles of trails, or enjoy the peacefulness of nature in one of our 85 park sites. Socialization is also an important component for healthy living. Our recreation facilities are communities within themselves, offering unique ways to engage with people from different cultures and backgrounds. For many patrons, these centers provide a sense of belonging outside of the digital world. Our fall catalog offers enriching and affordable ways to make health and happiness a priority for you and your family. What are your goals for living a healthy life? Let us help create long-lasting habits and introduce you to new experiences with our classes and programs. You can stay up-to-date on these and other department news by signing up for our e-newsletter at planoparks.org. You can also follow us on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. Here’s to a safe and happy fall season! Robin Reeves Director, Plano Parks and Recreation
Through a fun and innovative team, we enrich Plano by providing inviting spaces, caring service, outstanding value, and memorable experiences. The Recreation Division accomplishes this by providing relevant and outstanding recreational opportunities through quality service, programs and facilities.

Gymnastics provides a multitude of benefits for children with special needs, as it challenges the brain to work in connection with the body as the child becomes physically stronger. Some of the skills this class will focus on include cartwheels, round-offs, front and back walkovers, chin up pull overs, back hip circles, and more. All of these activities aim to help improve the student’s motor skills and confidence as well as their ability to follow directions.

Piranhas Off-Season Conditioning-Gold
“My grandson loves swim lessons at the PAC! It’s the only sport that can save your child’s life.” - Frank D.
Infant Survival Class The most essential survival swimming skill we will teach your child is to roll from a face down position in the water to a face up independent back float. Infants and toddlers cannot raise their heads to take a breath. If your child falls face down into the water, knowing how to roll onto a face up back float can save a life. If your baby is walking, then he or she can also learn to swim to the pool edge or steps, rolling over to breathe whenever air is needed. When a child is in these survival swim lessons, the child learns to use his or her body in the water without assistance and learns how to look for air. These classes are private sessions. Each class is 10 minutes long Monday-Thursday. For more information contact Cathy Johnson at cjohnson@plano.gov or 972-208-8087.

As we age, muscles and joints begin to tighten, which causes discomfort and anxiety about ones physical well-being. When mobility decreases either due to aging or a temporary trauma many people find themselves moping around and some even fall into depression.

The Judge had been Attorney General under Franklin Roosevelt and, after the war, he was named Chief Judge of the American Military Tribunal at Nuremberg. ‘Trying’ is the story of a young Canadian girl and an old Philadelphia aristocrat as they try to understand each other.

Hours of Operation Monday thru Sunday -- *7:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. *Tennis Center opens at 9 a.m. from October 1 thru March 31. The tennis center may close early due to inclement weather and/ or lack of court demand.

Instruction
Teen-Adult classes have a minimum of six students and a maximum of ten students per class. Youth classes have a maximum of eight students. Pee Wee classes have a maximum of six students. To avoid cancellation of a class, a class may “make” with less than six students, but with a reduced number of sessions. Classes at the same level and similar age groups may be combined at the discretion of High Point staff. Any group of two or more players may schedule a special class by contacting High Point staff at 972-941-7170. Group lessons are very popular and some classes fill very quickly. To assure a continuous chain of instruction, we recommend that students enroll for multiple sessions at the time of initial registration. For example, a student should enroll for a Beginner session in the first session, an Advanced Beginner I group in the second session, and an Advanced Beginner II group in the third session.
10 & Under Tennis
High Point participates year round in the QuickStart Tennis play format, a national program designed to help children learn, rally, and play quickly. Using shorter and lighter racquets, balls that are easy to keep in play, and court dimensions tailored to smaller players, youngsters from ages 5-10 pick up the game very quickly. In short time, young players are able to keep the ball in play and play points just like older and more experienced players. In time, as students’ games improve and as they mature physically, they move to traditional rackets, balls, and courts. QuickStart is a great way to introduce children to the great game of tennis!
Advancement from Course to Course
We encourage players to continue learning and playing in progressively more challenging courses. The goal is to have students playing tennis (in some form) as soon as possible. As a player improves, more course time is spent on point-play like situations. For children, the instructional/play sequence is: Beginner or Pee Wee I lessons (depending on age of child), Advanced Beginner or Pee Wee II lessons, and Future Stars or Pre Junior Development (Play and Instructional Programs), Competitive, and Elite Junior Development. For teens, the sequence is Beginner, Advanced Beginner I, Advanced Beginner II, Learn N Play, Future Stars, Competitive, and Elite Junior Development. For adults, the sequence is: Beginner, Advanced Beginner, Learn and Play, High Point intra-facility leagues, Tennis Competitor of Dallas leagues, and USTA Adult Leagues.

INTERURBAN RAILWAY MUSEUM interurbanplano.org Located in downtown Plano, the Interurban Railway Museum is housed in a building that served as a primary stop on the Texas Electric Railway that ran from Denison to Dallas beginning in 1908. On December 31, 1948, the Denison to Dallas Interurban made its last run. The station remained closed until early 1990 when a complete restoration of the building was completed and the building was converted into a museum by the City of Plano. The museum exhibit contains many artifacts associated with the Interurban Line, as well as a history of Plano. Museum hours are 10am-2pm weekdays and 1pm-5pm Saturdays. Group tours of the museum may be arranged in advance by calling 972-941-2117. There is no entrance fee; however, contributions are greatly appreciated.
