I grew up in this community. Attended Lincoln Elementary and Manteca High School. Swam every summer at Lincoln Pool. Met my lovely wife, Eryn Bowers, here as well. We now have a kiddo who is even more active than we were. She plays softball, basketball and volleyball. We’ve attended six father-daughter dances. Our family loves the parks in the city and spend a great deal of time together enjoying the programs the City offers My appointment to the Manteca Recreation Commission means a great deal to me. It’s a chance to support the community programs that encourage our families, students, parents and residents to come together as a community. I believe simple and fun events throughout the community are a chance to establish meaningful relationships with our neighbors and ultimately build stronger communities together. I am honored to be part of the commission. My favorite event is by far the daddy-daughter and family dances at the senior center I commend the staff for putting these events together and I look forward to these each year. Not too far behind that are community events like the Food Truck Frenzy and Movie Nights!
The future of the Manteca Recreation & community Services department is very bright I believe the future of the department directly aligns with the facilities that are to be constructed within the City. I’d like to see the department revisit standards for our parks, their design elements, and how those items align with opportunities for programming in the future. The parks Master Plan is a great tool that could help grow the community’s opportunities as more parks are developed or improved. I would also like to see how the department could help improve the condition of the Big-League dreams complex and operations
Co-Chair
I am serving Manteca Recreation and Parks Commission because of my love for youth sport development! I was interested in how I could help Manteca grow their recreational sports and programs to benefit all of our citizens of Manteca.
My favorite program that MRCSD offers is the Jr NBA basketball league and the Manteca Dolphins Swim Team. Both programs have grown with each year they have been offered and are both proven to be a well rounded and competitive program for all ages!
For the future of MRCSD I would love to see the aquatics side of things embrace a water polo development program. Water polo is one of the fastest growing sports in California! I would love to also see more partnerships from local club programs across all sports. With club partnerships and communication, we can better build the recreation youth development and create a pathway for young athletes to move up and continue to become more competitive as their talents improve. This in turn would greatly affect our local high school programs and their pathways into collegiate play and life skills.
Community recreation is very important to me. I have benefited from community programs all my life and I'm passionate about making sure these programs and more, are available to current and future generations. In addition to participating as a youth, I have served as a lifeguard, instructor, umpire, coach and more, I enjoy giving back. Professionally, I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Recreation Administration and certified Recreational Therapist. My experience includes teaching, coaching, and athletic director positions at Tracy High and St. Anthony's School in Manteca. There is no substitute for community recreation, parks, art, sports, cultural and other progressive programs I have always thought that a more transparent operating budget, increased community input and ideas, clear goals and objectives and a community partnership with private and civic organizations would greatly benefit the city of Manteca.
I grew up in Manteca and participated in many Manteca activities. Now my family accesses many of the offerings from Manteca Recreation and Parks. I am excited to support the Commission and see the growth and development of our programs. I LOVE the sports offered for the 3-5 year old kids. It teaches then how to contribute to a team and the high school coaches are excellent role models!
I am so impressed with the programming options. I would like to see Manteca continue to offer the plentiful options throughout the upcoming years.

This year’s Park and Recreation Month theme — “Where You Belong” — celebrates the many ways park and recreation professionals across the country foster a sense of belonging in their community by providing welcoming and inclusive programs, essential services for all ages and abilities, and safe, accessible spaces to build meaningful connection During Park and Recreation Month, NRPA encourages park and recreation agencies to showcase the ways in which they contribute to strong, vibrant and resilient communities all year and how community members can support their local agency’s work.
This July let’s unite and share the many reasons why local parks and recreation truly embodies the essence of belonging. Together, we can demonstrate why these spaces are Where You Belong.
