SPECIAL HOURS

Parent & Child Preschool Open Swim This special time is available in the wading pool at regular admission prices (free to pass holders) and is open to children ages 6 and under when accompanied by a parent. Swim lesson registration DOES NOT include free admission to this activity. NATATORIUM & IVYWILD POOLS: M-F, 10AM to 12PM, June 6-Aug 12 Increased concerns with waterborne illnesses and child safety have made it necessary for parents to become more vigilant in supervising their children, taking their children to the restroom more often and keeping their children out of the pool for two weeks following stomach illnesses. We have stepped up enforcement of direct parent supervision (defined as within reach of a parent’s arms at all times) of children under three years of age and/or who are not pottytrained while in our wading pools. Children meeting these conditions will also be required to be in their parent’s arms at all times when in our larger pools. For more information please visit cityofboise.org/pools

A D U LT

Ladder leagues are organized leagues in which players with similar skills compete against each other in a competitive, structured and weekly format. Think of a pickleball “ladder” as a graphical representation of a player’s ranking (by skill and performance) over a period of time. The rungs on the ladder represent a player’s current position (ranking) on the ladder relative to the other players — with the top rung of the ladder being the individual currently ranked the highest (the best winning percentage) and the bottom rung being the lowest-ranked individual or team. The ultimate goal is to climb the ladder to the highest rung. Please see the online registration site for a complete description.

SECTION HEA 1

FIELD GUIDE

To Boise’s Birds Birds are found in nearly every city setting, from urban micro parks to the sprawling foothills that border our northeastern edge. Birds visit backyard feeders, perch in low shrubs and on tall structures, swim in our river, lakes and ponds, nest in our trees and soar overhead. A variety of Boise’s habitats attract and support hundreds of species, and we invite you to explore some of the area’s most common birds. The Field Guide to Boise’s Birds is available for free online. Printed versions can be purchased at the Boise Parks and Recreation Administration Office for $8 plus tax.

SUMMER 2022 ACTIVITY GUIDE

Due to multiple factors, pollinator populations across the globe have declined drastically, with some species declining up to 90%. To help turn the tide, Boise Parks and Recreation is working hard to provide high quality, pollinator habitat by planting, monitoring and maintaining dedicated pollinator areas in Boise’s parks. To help us care for these areas, we are looking for some pollinator champions to join our Pollinator Posse. Beginning March 22, weekly work parties will be held on Tuesday mornings, from 9-11 AM, during which participants will help plant new pollinator plants as needed, add ground cover to planting beds, remove weeds and monitor for pollinator use.

TREE STEWARDS, Thursday Mornings; 9-11AM Do you have a love for trees or simply want to learn more about them? Boise Parks and Recreation’s Tree Steward program provides opportunity for citizens to learn about and care for our community’s trees through a combination of training and hands-on experience. Volunteers must complete an orientation, where trained and certified tree care professionals inform participants on how to identify trees, how trees grow, proper planting techniques, pruning basics and how to diagnose common tree problems. Work parties take place on Thursday mornings. Participants that complete 30 hours of service during the year become certified Tree Stewards.

JULIA DAVIS PARK ROSE GARDEN, Friday Mornings; 8-11AM You don’t need a green thumb to be a Julia Davis Rose Garden volunteer. Since 1935, the Julia Davis Rose Garden has attracted gardeners of varying expertise who share one thing in common – a passion for roses. The rose garden has always been a labor of love by and for the people of Boise, and you can help continue that tradition by volunteering to care for the garden. Beginning April 1, weekly work sessions will be held Friday mornings, from 8-11AM. No knowledge of plant care is required. Our professional staff will provide direction and training for anyone who is interested in lending a hand.

BOISE BIKE PARK, May 1; 9AM-12PM The J.A. and Kathryn Albertson Foundation Bike Park is an exciting new addition to our wonderful city and is already getting lots of love. These types of facilities don’t just happen, however. We are looking for some die-hard Boise Bike Park users to help us care for the facility. Beginning May 1, on the second

MIGRATORY DRAGONFLY POND WATCH, May 9 Pond Watch is a citizen science project of the Migratory Dragonfly Partnership focused on collecting data about migratory dragonflies. Participants adopt a pond to monitor for dragonfly activity from May – September. Collected data will be sent to the Dragonfly Pond Watch Project to help scientists

better understand the migration patterns of dragonflies. Training and monitoring materials will be provided. Training is scheduled for May 9 from 10AM-12PM.

PARKS, MONARCHS & MILKWEEDS, June 4 Due to a marked decrease in population, the monarch butterfly has garnered nationwide support with conservation efforts aimed at preserving habitat. Boise Parks and Recreation is doing its part with a local citizen science program - Parks, Monarchs & Milkweeds - that engages volunteers in monitoring monarch activity in Boise parks. Beginning with a training on June 4, volunteers can adopt a milkweed patch to monitor for the season and submit data reports on what they observe.
