Just say yes! H ave you ever had a friend call and ask for a lift to the store because their car is in the shop for repairs? Or how about your neighbor comes over and asks to borrow your lawn mower to mow their lawn because theirs just mysteriously quit working and their family reunion guests begin arriving in 2 hours. We’ve all been in this position in our lives more times than we can count and we know how it feels to be on the giving side and the receiving side of this situation.

OUTDOORS
The Whitewater Park has grown into a cultural icon, an essential ingredient of Downtown that is the envy of cities across the country. Opened in 2004, the half-mile Whitewater Park features five drop pools over 1400 feet in the north channel; six pools over 1200 feet in the south channel. The north and south channels are created by Wingfield Park, a grassy island park with an amphitheater and facilities for concerts, festivals, picnics, outdoor sports and recreation. Visitors to the park will commonly see people using kayaks, canoes, rafts, or inner tubes pass through the park any time of the year. Kayak, raft and tube rentals are available by local concessionaires. As with all river systems, safety precautions should be exercised (i.e. use of personal flotation devices). No lifeguard on duty. Call us at 334-2414 for more information.

NEWFACILITIES
NEW PARK IMPROVEMENTS NEAR YOU Echo Loder School Field Renovation The City recently completed a project using Community Development Block Grant funds to improve the playing fields and install a jogging track, shade shelter and seating for use by soccer leagues, the school and neighbors. The $240,000 project included installation of a new irrigation system to replace an antiquated and inefficient system in place for 40 years. The solar powered system is now linked to the Parks Division’s central irrigation control system, meeting the goal of the City’s Water Management Plan. The shade shelter and tables will provide a site for an outdoor learning environment for the school’s use. The project also included new sidewalks, pedestrian crosswalks and security fencing to improve access and security for the school. White Fir Trailhead With a $150,000 grant from the Nevada Recreational Trails Program, the City recently installed a new parking lot at White Fir Drive, adjacent to the Tom Cooke Trail. This site, situated on the south side of the Truckee River across from Patagonia, has been a popular location for hikers and mountain bikers to access the Steamboat Ditch trail and US Forest Service lands on the north slope of the Mt. Rose wilderness. In the past, visitors parked on White Fir Drive, which wasn’t designed for in this area for on-street parking. The new parking lot includes 10 parking spaces and is handicap accessible. Dick Taylor Park – Universal Accessible Playground The City partnered with the Junior League of Reno to replace much of the old playground equipment at Dick Taylor Park, located adjacent to the Evelyn Mount Northeast Community Center, with new play systems specifically designed to be usable by children of all physical, emotional and mental abilities. The new playground includes five different equipment groups, including typical play structures with components for children aged 2-5 and 5-12, adaptive fitness equipment, climbing equipment and swings. The Junior League of Reno raised $150,000 for the project while the City committed $100,000 of Community Development Block Grant funds. When the playground opens this fall, it will be the only one of its kind in the Truckee Meadows. 30
