Director’s Welcome Winter is a remarkable season in Texas. One day it’s cold and icy and the next is a balmy 70 degrees. I routinely hear the stories of how Winter REALLY is from relocated Texans who have discovered the joys of our mild season which provides unique outdoor opportunities. One employee, who moved from Michigan, was proclaiming the greatness of being able to be out on the lake any time of year! For many, this is the season to head indoors. For those that understand that there is no bad weather, only bad clothing (outdoor retailers can thank me later) there is an abundance of beauty in our parks this time of year. This season also brings a surge of visitors to our indoor facilities and programs. The resolutions that accompany the New Year include those who have set their sights on better health and wellness and those that want to learn new skills and hobbies. Our life enriching programs include 7,000 different opportunities from which you can choose. Don’t like to commit to a certain time and date or need additional flexibility? We offer punch cards for adult fitness classes and aquatic fitness classes so you can participate when it fits your schedule. If you prefer self-directed activities, consider purchasing a recreation membership. For one low fee, you gain access at all of our award winning recreation centers and pools. Month-to-month memberships start at $49 for a family, $19 for adults, $15 for ages 60 and better, or $11 for youth (see page 2 for membership information). For the cost of going to a movie and having a snack, you can provide health and fitness to yourself and/or your family for an entire month! However you decide to enjoy 2015, we hope you take time to enhance your life so you can do the same for others. Come visit our facilities and see why Plano Parks and Recreation is consistently recognized as one of the best departments in the country. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Interurban Railway Museum 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 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. weekdays and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on 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.

'DRIVING MISS DAISY' IN SHERMAN

It's 1948 in the Deep South. Having recently demolished another car, Daisy Werthan, a rich, sharp-tongued 72-year old Jewish widow must rely on the services of a chauffeur. The person her son hires for the job is a thoughtful, unemployed black man, Hoke, whom Miss Daisy immediately regards with disdain and who, in turn, is not impressed with his employer's patronizing tone. But, in a series of absorbing scenes spanning twenty-five years, the two grow closer. Slowly and steadily the dignified, good-natured Hoke breaks down the stern defenses of the ornery old lady, as she teaches him to read and write. It finally becomes clear they both have more in common than they ever realized. At the Finley Theater in Sherman. We'll have supper at the Durning House in Van Alstyne before the play.

“Now, in our second year of Aerobats, my daughter a confidant girl who has learned incredible discipline over her hyperactivity. She has gained courage to deal with the questions her peers have about her motor and verbal tics. And more than anything else, she has a passion for this sport and loves working hard to learn and master new skills. The coaches have helped us teach her how to be a good teammate and a good friend to others, as well as how to be a good leader. Our coaches, especially coaches Carlos, Holly, Emily, Rachael, and Jessica have been amazing influences in her young life and we are so thankful for each of them.� Kerri B.

It rivals the difficulty of an extreme boot camp, the effectiveness of intense Pilates and the benefits of cardiovascular interval training, but masks the challenge of all three with the feeling of rockin' out. The workout fuses Pilates, isometric movements, plyometric, and yogabased poses into a 45-minute class. Burn calories, strengthen, and sculpt infrequently used muscles and drum your way to a leaner, more toned physique, all while rocking out to your favorite music with a group of peers, making music and driving the beat. Pound incorporates easy to follow moves that work the entire body and raises the heart rate to a fat-burning zone. Appropriate and effective for all fitness levels. 163982 OAK W

Lessons, leagues and tournaments are offered on a regular basis for those wanting organized activities. For players not wanting a structured activity, many courts are open for reservations.

Registration Tennis registration may be completed by using Internet, in-person or by telephone starting Saturday, January 3. Please see “How to Register” information for detailed instructions.

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.

Court Fees

RESIDENTS Youth (l7 & under) -- $2.50 per person per session Adult (l8 & up) -- $3.00 per person per session

NON-RESIDENTS Youth (l7 & under) -- $3.25 per person per session Adult (l8 & up) ---- $4.00 per person per session

Annual Passes Annual passes may be purchased which allow the holder to play without paying further per session court fees. Cost of the annual passes are:

Resident Family $260 Adult (l8 & up) $150 Youth (l7 & under) $85

72

Non-Resident $390 $230 $130

Reservations

Court reservations may be made in person or by telephone at (972) 941-7170, option 5 between 9 a.m. and closing, Monday through Sunday. A person may have only one reservation at a time (you must finish your first reservation before a second reservation can be made).

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, 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 ages 5-10 pick up the game very quickly. Many young players are able to keep the ball in play and play points just like older and more experienced players. 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

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 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.
