HAVE YOU NOTICED A CHANGE IN THE LANDSCAPE AT WYLIE RECREATION CENTER AND SMITH PUBLIC LIBRARY? THE COMPLETELY RENOVATED LANDSCAPE BEDS, DESIGNED TO BE WATER-SMART, PROVIDE A PRACTICAL EXAMPLE OF LANDSCAPE DESIGN USING PLANTS THAT ARE WELL ADAPTED TO OUR NORTH TEXAS CLIMATE. In 2014, the North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) approached the City of Wylie with a proposal to construct a water conservation demonstration garden at the Wylie Municipal Complex. The Parks and Recreation Division jumped at the chance to partner with the NTMWD in a way that not only helps beautify the property, but also provides a service to our citizens.
THE CONSERVATION GARDEN SHOWS THAT IT IS POSSIBLE TO HAVE AN EXCITING AND ATTRACTIVE LANDSCAPE AND STILL CONSERVE WATER
In order to bring a high level of exposure to the project, the City chose to locate the conservation garden in the breezeway between the Recreation Center and the Library. The NTMWD completely financed the project, and the City provides ongoing maintenance and care of the garden. The planting plan, developed by Huitt-Zollars, includes significant input from City Parks and Recreation staff. The new landscape design is comprised of over 85% Texas native plants that are proven performers in drought conditions.
Construction began in March of 2015, and included renovation of the irrigation system to provide drip irrigation, amendment of the soil with compost, and planting of the new plant material. Interpretive signage Photo: NATIVE PLANTS LOCATED located in the garden area describes the project and BETWEEN THE LIBRARY AND gives visitors a blueprint for creating a similar garden at Wylie Parks & Recreation REC | Activity Menu | Jan May 2016 Stellar | QUESTIONS?

Grass, Blackfoot Daisy, and Coneflower are only some of the many plants found in the Conservation Garden. One bed was designed to showcase native prairie plants also found in the Blackland Prairie Restoration area north of the complex. The garden was completed in August of 2015, and the City took over operations in November. The recent droughts expose the importance of conserving water. It is estimated that nearly one-third of all residential water use goes to landscape irrigation nationally. The Wylie Conservation Garden shows that it is possible to have an exciting and attractive landscape and still conserve water. For more information about the Conservation Garden, or the selected plants, please contact the Parks and Recreation Division at 972-516-6370 or at parks@ wylietexas.gov.

PHEASANT CREEK PARK
OLDE CITY PARK
Located in far Southeast Wylie, Pheasant Creek Park provides a ribbon of green space for the Pheasant Creek Addition. In 2012, the City of Wylie received a grant from Collin County to begin developing the park. The city chose to concentrate on the northern edge of the park, and began installing improvements in the spring of 2013. The park now boasts a playground, pavilion and the first leg of a trail that may eventually connect to Rockwall County. Solar-powered lighting fixtures have been placed in the pavilion and along the trail, to provide for light after hours without requiring the consumption of fossil fuels.
Located in Historic Downtown Wylie, Olde City Park is a focal point for many of the celebrations and events that knit our community together. Featuring a pavilion, playground, gazebo, bbq grills and trail, the park is a cherished destination for Wylians young and old. The Park is also home to Wylie’s Veteran’s Memorial, which is managed by the local office of the American Legion. The park is always a part of our downtown events, like Boo! On Ballard, the Pedal Car Race, Bluegrass on Ballard, and the Christmas Parade. Many other events find a home at Olde City Park throughout the year as well, and there’s always a welcoming smile for everyone.

RECREATION POLICIES & GUIDELINES Please review the proceeding, most frequently accessed policy and guideline information.

Thank you!
ACTIVITY SATISFACTION GUARANTEE So you tried “Macramé Comeback” and it just wasn’t for you. A full refund is available through the first day of most contracted courses. Dying to try “Extreme Boot Camp”? Go ahead and give it a whirl! If you are dissatisfied with the quality of a registered activity, please contact a staff person, immediately so we may have an opportunity to solve the problem. DON’T MISS A THING! Activity registrations are available on a first-come, first-serve basis with full payment. Register early and guarantee your spot before maximum enrollment is met. Full payment and waiver are required prior to participation. Allow time for your front desk registration or skip the line and register online. Activities cancel several days out if minimum enrollment is unmet. Register early and encourage friends to do the same. Registering “in bulk” is encouraged as a timesaver. Full refunds are available for most multi-day activities through the first meeting date. Review full withdraw and refund policies prior to registration. ANYTIME ACTIVITY REGISTRATION Register online with a credit card for most activities at http:// Apm.ActiveCommunities.com/Wylie. Some exclusions and nonrefundable transaction fees apply. IN-PERSON ACTIVITY REGISTRATION Register in person with cash, check or credit card at Wylie Recreation Center, Senior Recreation Center, or Parks and Recreation Administration Office during business hours. ACTIVITY REGISTRATION SCHEDULE Get the worm! Activity seasons open up for Early Bird Online Registration (EBOR) one week prior to standard registration. Winter and Spring activities with a start date between January and May open up December 1 for EBOR. Summer Activities with a start date between June and August open up for EBOR on May 1. Fall and Winter Activities with a start date between
September and December open up for EBOR on August 1. Some Activities may require special registration procedures including deadlines. Some Activities may be excluded. ACTIVITY DISCOUNTS The City of Wylie Parks and Recreation Department offers ongoing discount programs to encourage enrollment in a variety of recreation activities. An Early Bird Online Registration (EB) discount of 15% is available for online registrations processed during the week prior to standard registration. The discount is available for designated activities. A Rec Pass Holder (RP) discount of 15% is available to current Rec Pass Holders for most contracted activities held at Wylie Recreation Center. The RP discount may be combined with Early Bird Online Registration. To receive the discount when registering online, use your existing account tied to your Rec Pass. Let us know if you need assistance, Recreation@WylieTexas.gov or 972516-6360. EB and RP Discounts may not be applied to Special Events, Leagues, off-site activities, or staff-led activities. Nonrefundable transaction fees applied to all online registrations. ACTIVITY WAITLIST You may be eligible for a waitlist when an activity has filled. If space opens up, waitlisted guests will be contacted in the order received. Please maintain current contact information with us. Waitlisted guests will be given a limited amount of time to follow up with a full registration before the next waitlisted guest will be contacted. The waitlist does not guarantee your spot nor serve as registration. ACTIVITY CANCELLATIONS Encourage friends to register with you and register early. An instructor may require a minimum number of participants before offering an activity. A decision about whether or not to cancel an activity is typically made the Friday before an activity starts. Please maintain current contact information with us. Registrants are notified by phone. If your activity cancels, you may transfer to another available activity, leave the credit on your account for future use, or request a refund. Supply fees and online transaction fees are nonrefundable regardless of withdraw or cancellation of the class. ACTIVITY SUPPLIES Books, handouts and other supplies are included with your registration unless otherwise noted.

To make a request for accommodation, please contact the facility supervisor where the activity is coordinated prior to registration.
