Letter from the Administrator

Change is upon us! Winter has turned to spring. Brown is turning green. Days are longer. Summit Ice has transitioned to pickleball courts, and staff has been working hard in preparation for a summer of fun. LSPR updated our website, making it easier to navigate and mobile-friendly. We now have an online group fitness and racquetball reservation system and staff implemented technology enhancements to increase efficiencies in our park operations and with administrative tasks.

However, that is not all that has changed. The Illustrated has also received a complete “make-over,” and this issue marks our first with the changes. We are moving from a traditional program guide to an informational and educational publication that will keep you informed on the latest and best at LSPR. In addition, we will provide insightful and educational articles highlighting the value, benefits, and importance of a great parks and recreation system. I am confident you will be amazed, perhaps surprised, and hopefully appreciative of all LSPR does to provide world class parks and recreation services, facilities, parks, and trails.

The new format will continue to highlight seasonal special events and operations, our community centers will always be included, and we will provide easy access to program information through the use of QR codes. In addition, LSPR will periodically mail postcards to each household announcing the latest program offerings. We are excited to roll out the new format and we are interested in your thoughts on our new look and direction for the Illustrated. I hope you will take a few minutes to share them with us.

Enjoy your parks,
