As the summer season winds to a close, it has been satisfying to see a turn toward normalcy at our recreation facilities and pools. Throughout the summer, Plano’s parks and facilities provided space for a needed reprieve or an invigorating workout. This past year, the community’s patience and support was instrumental as Parks and Recreation staff worked behind-the-scenes to ensure a safe reopening of our centers. This fall, how about trying something new? Consider signing up for a sunset paddle at Oak Point Park & Nature Preserve, take a photography class at Carpenter Park Recreation Center, or learn Tai Chi at the Sam Johnson Recreation Center. Our classes are a great way to learn a hobby and make new friends, and this fall’s slate of classes is sure to offer something for everyone. We only ask that you adhere to three simple rules when you come through our doors: Be Safe, Be Smart, and Be Kind. Check out our recreation centers and pools page at planoparks.org for more information so you can know before you go. Looking for a fun team-building activity? Form a team of friends and coworkers and join our Adult Sports Leagues this fall. Players of all skill levels are invited to join our slow-pitch softball, flag football, kickball, soccer, volleyball and basketball leagues. It’s a great way to blow off some steam after a long work day and meet new people. You can stay up-to-date on these fun activities 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! Ron Smith Director, Plano Parks and Recreation

ADAPTED RECREATION
Adapted Gymnastics (Adv) (4-9 Yrs)
ADAPTED RECREATION Recreational and Social Opportunities for Individuals with Disabilities Adapted Recreation programs are designed to meet the needs of individuals with disabilities from 12 months to over 60 years of age. Adapted Recreation staff is composed of certified special education teachers, certified paraprofessionals, and volunteers, who are on hand for most programs to assist and encourage the individuals as needed. Any individuals requiring assistance with matters not directly related to the activities and needing assistance with toileting and feeding must bring a chaperone/aide. For information please contact Dianne Dillon at 972-941-7272.
This class is for athletes ages 4 to 9 who are successful at basic tumbling and gymnastics skills. Please see instructor for approval before registering. 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.

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 self-esteem. 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.

To avoid cancellation of a class, a class may “make” with less than the minimum number of 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 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.
