A

director’s note

s we approach another Spring and Summer in Northern Nevada, we look forward to the many outdoor activities that await us. I encourage you to look at the many services outlined in this brochure in a different way. I want to focus your attention on what the City of Reno is doing to help address the growing epidemic of childhood obesity. The Department’s Mission is to provide the community access to a wide variety of recreational pursuits. This may seem a superficial goal to some, however, we take it very seriously in our programming, food service offerings, park operations, and recreational options that are available to everyone. In our focus on youth and teens, we realize this is a critical time of their lives when they are forming their independent decision processes that will be the basis for life-long habits, behaviors, and thinking patterns. Our goal is to be a positive influence to help youth, teen and young adults understand the importance of fitness, overall well-being, including mental, emotional and physical health.

There are many immediate and long-term benefits to addressing your child’s overall fitness when they are younger: • Better concentration at school • Less likely to contract Type 2 Diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease • Better self-image which helps to promote self confidence and self esteem • More energy • Greater ability to handle stress

So, what can you do? Consulting your family physician is a great first step to assess the status of your child’s health and develop a plan of action. Generally, obesity is determined by measuring the BMI (Body Mass Index). This can be easily done by checking the following website, which calculates your BMI http://apps.nccd.cdc.gov/dnpabmi/. This is just one indicator and should not be assumed as the only assessment tool, which your physician will verify.

Youth Obesity has received significant press coverage over the past five years. According to the National Center for Disease Control, childhood obesity has more than tripled in the U.S. in the past 30 years. In addition, the Obesity Action Coalition has identified obese children are 70 percent more likely to be obese as adults. This carries a greater risk for obesity-related health conditions such as heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, sleep disorders and cancer. These are sobering facts that no parent, grandparent, guardian or foster parent wants to face, however, know there are local resources and personal help at your fingertips. Washoe County School District has completed their own studies and analysis compared to state and national averages. Although a 2010 report shows Washoe County’s rate for childhood overweight and obesity is higher at 34.3% than the U.S. average 31.9%; it is lower than the state average at 38% of school-aged children who are reported as overweight or obese.

Finally, there are many actions you can take to help your child be active: • Plan family activities that involve physical fitness (swimming, walking, biking, etc) and join in the activities – don’t just watch. • Limit time in front of the TV and computer and encourage outside physical play. • Support your child’s participation in sports and activities in school, classes and individual sports. • Help your child find an activity or group of activities they enjoy. • Develop a routine by having a regular schedule for physical activity. And remember, Parks, Recreation and Community Services are here to help you and your family have fun, stay active and stay fit!

gardens

gARDENS

Rain Garden: They collect rain water and snow-melt in the winter, infiltrating it back into our local supply, and thrive on drip irrigation in the summer. They also provide beautiful urban habitat for butterflies and foraging wild birds… AND provide protection for our Truckee River. Rain gardens help protect the river. Using drip irrigation instead of sprinklers, rain gardens reduce overspray and flooded gutters by allowing water to filter through the soil. Infiltrated water is cleansed before it reaches the river, much better than gutter flows carrying dissolved pollutants into our river from pet waste, pesticides, and other materials. By removing turf and replacing with a drip-watered garden, you could save a lot of money AND protect the Truckee River at the same time! TMWA has a helpful online landscape guide to help choose the right plants for your site, www.tmwalandscapeguide.com.

As attractive as LID is, your site might not be well served by LID! There are many things to consider, ie. soil types, available space, topography, proximity of space to building and downspouts, and depth to groundwater. Please refer to the online manuals to see if LID is right for your site.

COMPOST/TOPSOIL/PEAT

Find the LID (planning) Manual and the Structural Controls Design Manual at www.tmstormwater.com or purchase at The Permit Place, Sinclair Street, Reno.

Sensory Garden: The City of Reno Park Maintenance division is developing the area in Idlewild Park that is an abandoned amusement park into a Children’s Sensory Garden. Children’s sensory gardens generate pleasant experiences of smell, sight, touch, taste and sound for people and create welcoming spaces that stimulate imagination and learning. Many studies confirm that sensory gardens provide therapeutic benefits for those dealing with difficult situations such as personal loss, abuse, injury, illness and developmental issues. The City of Reno’s Children’s Sensory Garden would not only include individual beds that focus on the senses, but would also include interactive features such as a trees with sensory value, a rock sculpture, and living willow tunnels and a living willow hut. Using willows to produce living structures is a fun way to involve children with the out of doors. Tunnels would direct children to garden areas while the igloo would allow an area for discussion, instruction or just play time.
