A MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR

Cheers to the new year! Our dedicated team is excited to offer a diverse range of winter and spring programs for all ages and abilities to learn, grow and thrive! Little ones under age 5 can bounce, jump and be silly in our ballet and hip-hop dance classes (page 10). This same age group and their families are invited to join us for Storytime at the Sunnyvale Public Library to enjoy stories, songs and movement (page 9).

Have school age kids? Our Youth & Teens section is packed full of fun and opportunity to learn. We offer several February/April school break camps including full day and half day options (page 19 - 22). Does your child need to use up some energy and get out of the house? Check out any of our sports classes (pages 27 - 33).

For adults, enjoy a different kind of workout in one of our water fitness classes like Aqua Yoga or Water Walking (page 36). Want to pick up a new hobby? Explore our Glass Fusing class (page 39). At the Senior Center, come to our baking demonstrations, where older adults age 50+ can learn how to prepare delectable profiteroles or lemon bars and take home their creations (page 50).

Don’t forget all the amazing events coming up this season that can be found on pages 4 - 9.

• Are you or someone you know expecting a child? Come to our Community Baby Shower (page 6)

CLASS LAYOUT EXAMPLE

NEW Class Title

Be excited! This is where youth and adults learn about what activities take place during a class session.

• Calling all teens and adults who want to work outdoors! The Summer Recreation Job Fair returns on Tuesday, March 4. Now is the perfect opportunity to find a part-time or seasonal position in summer camp or aquatics. Apply early to schedule an interview at the fair to reduce your wait time. Can’t apply early? Give yourself at least 90 minutes to apply and interview at the Job Fair.

Applications for the Recreation Scholarship program open on Dec. 6. Funds are available beginning Jan. 1, 2025. We have $150,000 to disperse in $500 scholarships to qualified Sunnyvale youth to use toward camps and classes. I encourage your family to apply early, so you are ready to sign up for summer camp in February. Check page 67 to learn how to apply.

There’s something for everyone in our safe facilities and programs, so come join us! If you have a program idea or question, please feel free to contact us at recreation@sunnyvale.ca.gov
