As another summer winds down in Plano, I want to thank those who took part in our free and affordable activities in July for Parks and Recreation Month. The close of summer also means our new master plan is nearly complete. The plan serves as a developmental guide for our department and is expected to go before City Council for approval this fall. Thanks to your valuable feedback over the past year, I am confident this plan will successfully serve our community for many years to come. Our 50th anniversary celebration continues with an open house at Carpenter Park Recreation Center on Sept. 24 from 4-8 p.m. Visitors will get to tour the facility and participate in live fitness demos while taking home some free 50th anniversary giveaways in the process. In addition, our K-9 Kerplunk is back by popular demand this year and will take place from 9 a.m. to noon on Sunday, Sept. 9 at Oak Point Recreation Center. This is the only day of the year when we give dogs the chance to paddle and play with their furry pals in our outdoor pool. Fans of our annual Haunt Jaunt (which starts at 5 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 20) are also in for a treat with a new route completely contained within confines of Oak Point Park & Nature Preserve. Our 50th Anniversary finale will take place on Saturday, Oct. 6 with a special Arbor Day and 50th anniversary ceremony at Oak Point Park Nature & Retreat Center. Come out to Oak Point Park Amphitheater that evening for a flashback to the sixties, as Rolling Stones tribute band Satisfaction will entertain with our favorite rock classics. The concert is family friendly and free! You can stay up-to-date on our many other offerings, ongoing projects and special events by checking our blog and signing up for our quarterly newsletter at planoparks.org. You can also follow us on Twitter and on Facebook. Here’s to a safe and happy fall season! Robin Reeves Director, Plano Parks and Recreation

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.

Preschool Swimming (3-5 Yrs)
Learning how to swim is fun, but did you know this lifelong skill benefits children in many other ways? Becoming a good swimmer can also help improve your child’s strength and coordination and their overall selfesteem. Each participant will be assessed on the first day of class and each child will be placed in the skill-appropriate group to ensure comfort and success. Skill range will vary from first time swimmers to those swimming independently. Students will be in the water for approximately 30 minutes.

The Muehlenbeck Center is head and shoulders above the SLC facility; cleanliness, staff, equipment, walking/running track, layout, locker rooms, restrooms, etc. Being in the Plano area and having such a facility in our backyard is taken for granted.

Instruction
Teen-Adult classes have a minimum of six students and a maximum of eight 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, it is recommended 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 a 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 racquets, balls, and courts. QuickStart is a great way to introduce children to the great game of tennis!
Advancement from Course to Course
Players are encouraged to continue learning and playing through 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 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 High Performance Junior Development. For teens-adults, 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.
