Beginning Judo
Beginning Judo
JIU JITSU CLASS
Baton and Stick Self Defense is based on the Filipino/ Indonesian martial arts. Known as SinaTirsiaWali Kali, techniques are the same whether you are holding a stick or are empty handed. Block and strikes are one and the same. Footwork and body mechanics are emphasized, enabling people to defend against a larger person. Minimum age is twelve years of age. Younger students can participate under the discretion of the instructor. Classes are held on Wednesday evenings from 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm.
Jiu Jitsu is a style that has promoted physical fitness, building character in young people, and ultimately a way of life. Jiu Jitsu is known for the effective techniques used during a standing attack and also ground defense in close combat. Participants of this class will be taught how to maintain distance management against attackers or opponents, work to control or escape an attacker and finally learn to control the attacker.

PARK IMPROVEMENTS ROLLING HILLS NEIGHBORHOOD PARK The development of a new neighborhood park is underway at the corner of Rolling Hills Road and Southridge Drive. When finished, the park will offer a playground for kid’s age 2-12 years old, sidewalks, accessible trail from Rolling Hills Road to the playground, entrance sign, tree planting and landscaping. The new neighborhood park is scheduled to be completed and open for public use fall 2013.
MEMORIAL PARK Several improvements have recently been completed at Memorial Park. Park crews have completed rehabilitation work to the park pavilion including a new roof, re-staining the kitchen/restroom building and a thorough cleaning and staining of the pavilion’s ceiling. Visitors to Memorial Park will also notice new lighting around the perimeter of the parking lot. The new lighting will assist with park patron safety and security after dark. A new playground with tile safety surfacing has been ordered and installation is scheduled to be completed by spring 2014.
OAK HILLS GOLF CENTER Park crews continue to implement master plan improvements at the Oak Hills Golf Center. Complete renovation of hole #10 is currently underway which includes a new green complex, re-shaping the fairway, addition of two sand bunkers, irrigation upgrades, and installation of concrete cart path. New hole #10 is scheduled to open for play summer 2014. In addition to the renovation of hole #10, the irrigation controllers and central computer system have been replaced. The new irrigation system gives staff greater flexibility and control to more efficiently water the golf course to help reduce overall water consumption.
500,000 trees could be saved from being cut down if every family in the United States recycled their newspaper.

SHOULD KNOW Jefferson City Parks & Recreation Foundation Jefferson City is home to an award winning Parks and Recreation Department. As the capital city of Missouri, maintaining our local parks and recreation facilities and implementing programs to meet the ever changing needs of our community and its visitors is a challenge. The J e ffe r s o n C it y P a rk s a n d Recreation Foundation strives to provide additional resources to leverage taxes, fees and grants to enhance our parks and recreation services. Over the years, civic minded individuals and organizations have maintained a tradition of enhancing the quality of life for their families, friends, and neighbors through generous donations to the Jefferson City Parks and Recreation system. In 1992, the Jefferson City Parks and Recreation Foundation was formed to provide continuing leadership and foster the expansion of parks and recreation services in Jefferson City. The Foundation’s goal is to emphasize the value of parks and recreation - both passive and active - not only for individual growth and development, but also for a strong family unit and for making our community a more desirable place to live, work, play and visit. If you believe, as we do, that wholesome recreation pursuits make individuals more productive in their homes and communities and lead to a healthier and happier life, please commit your support to the Jefferson City Parks and Recreation Foundation. Land, trees, fountains, benches, shelters, activity fees for youth programs are all gifts that can make a difference in people’s lives. Any and all size of gifts to our community are appreciated and contribute to the livability and quality of life of Jefferson City. For more information on how you can make a tax deductible contribution of land, money, or other gifts, please contact the Foundation’s Executive Director William Lockwood at 634-6482.
Equal Opportunity As a recipient of federal funds from the U.S. Department of the Interior, the Jefferson City Parks and Recreation Commission and the Jefferson City Department of Parks and Recreation operates programs subject to the nondiscrimination requirements of Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Under Title VI, the U.S. Department of the Interior strictly prohibits discrimination because of race, color, or national origin in its federally assisted programs. Any person who believes he or she has been discriminated against in any program or facility of the Jefferson City Department of Parks and Recreation, or desires further information regarding Title VI, should write immediately to: The Office for Equal Opportunity U.S. Department of Interior Office of the Secretary Washington, D.C. 20240
Bleeding Policy In any Parks and Recreation program, a participant who is bleeding or who has blood on his/her clothing shall be prohibited from participating further in the activity until appropriate treatment has been administered. Appropriate treatment may include bandaging as necessary to prevent recurrence. This policy has been implemented to protect the participants, coaches, staff, and their families from diseases transported through the accidental contact of tainted blood. If medical care is needed, the participant must leave the activity until the problem situation has been resolved. A 70% isopropyl alcohol solution must be used to disinfect the skin and clothing. All infected areas must be thoroughly cleaned before this individual is allowed to continue participating in the activity. This may require that the player remove affected clothing and replace it in order to be able to continue participating. All participants should bring an extra shirt, pair of pants/shorts, and socks to each activity to change into in the event a blood incident should occur.
Sponsorships The Parks and Recreation Commission believes that no youth should be denied access to Parks and Recreation programs for financial reasons. The Parks and Recreation Foundation makes recreation sponsorships available to those who otherwise would not be able to afford to participate in organized recreation activities. Those seeking sponsorships will be asked to complete a Recreation Sponsorship Application Form available through the Department of Parks and Recreation. Sponsorships are generally limited to those receiving benefits from a form of public assistance as designated on the application form. Sponsorship funding is limited to $200 per individual per calendar year and is restricted to ongoing programs conducted by Parks and Recreation staff. Specialized programs of short duration conducted by non-staff members (e.g. baseball clinics) are ineligible for sponsorship funding. All application forms requesting funding for youth programs must be signed by the parent/guardian of the prospective participant. Participants/parents must pay a minimum of 20% of the registration fee for programs for which sponsorship assistance is requested. Questions concerning this service may be directed to Phil Stiles at 634-6482.
The views of any program or activity advertised within this guide and sponsored by any organization other than the Jefferson City Parks and Recreation Department do not necessarily reflect the views of the Jefferson City Parks and Recreation Department.
