Summary
Staff reported successes in recent recreation programming including about 300 participants at a Colorado tennis championship, a well‑attended Boo Bash and high demand for preschool and camp programs. Staff also described program fee tweaks such as replacing a 10‑pack pass with a 5‑pack option for better customer flexibility.
Amy, recreation staff, reviewed recent activities and participation at district programs. Highlights included the Colorado tennis championship (about 300 participants in the district’s first year hosting), a record turnout at the Boo Bash and high enrollment in preschool and brunch events. Amy praised staff effort behind the tennis tournament and said the district is discussing an ongoing relationship with USTA.
On program fees, staff proposed operational simplifications: retire the ‘grandparent/grandchild’ pass (which had created back‑office complications) and replace the 10‑visit aquatics pass with a 5‑visit punch pass to improve customer flexibility. Amy and Katrina said the change has minimal price impact but will reduce customer service workload. For preschool and camp offerings staff proposed larger increases in 2026 reflecting market conditions and the rising costs of field trips and staffing.
Staff also described seasonal maintenance and parks activities supporting recreation, including sprinkler blowouts, aeration and leaf removal scheduled through mid‑November.
