Welcome to the beautiful season of autumn! We are excited to offer you some new opportunities to get out and enjoy our community in safe ways. Below are some highlights of new programs and offerings. Sign up now for seasonal walks in September, October and December (Pg. 23-24) as part of the #WaukeshaUnited Program.

These new themed walks are fun for the whole family and will surely put a smile on your face.

Gnomes have infiltrated Waukesha so register for the “Gnome Nose Around” game starting on September 25.

Nose around City of Waukesha Parks and help free the 100 gnomes that are hidden in our parks (more information on the back cover). The Howl-O-Ween event that your family knows, and loves has been revamped into Howl at Home. For virtual scare-free Halloween fun visit our Facebook page (@cityofwaukesha) or the WPRF Virtual Rec Center (waukesha-wi.gov/1511/VirtualRecreation-Center).

Just a quick reminder that Trick or Treat will take place on October 31. We encourage all trick or treaters to ONLY visit houses that have their outside lights on as a home with lights on will signify that the house is participating in Trick or Treat

We will be honoring our Veterans in a new way this year by hosting an Operation Honor: Care Package Drive on November 7.

Please turn to pg. 25 for a list of recommended items for donation and more information on this event.

As our children return to school, we wanted to make parents aware of a new contact free way to register your child for the Cool School program. Payment plans can be done online through our website https://waukeshaprf.maxgalaxy.net/Home.aspx?

Mark your calendars on December 21. We will be turning off lights in 6 city parks for some star gazing. We encourage everyone to look up to the sky between 7:00 -8:00 pm to view the not often seen Great Jupiter-Saturn Conjunction (this rare event was last seen in the year 2000) and the winter solstice. We encourage businesses and homes to also turn off lights then, for an optimal viewing experience. Please turn to page 19-20 for more information on this event and for a star map of the sky above Waukesha on 12/21.

As a reminder, if you plan on visiting one of our city buildings, please remember that face coverings are currently required prior to entry and for all our indoor programming. Please continue to watch our website (www.waukesha-wi.gov) and social media (@cityofwaukesha) for any changes to policies. Thank you to everyone for your individual efforts to slow the spread of Covid-19 and here’s to a happy and healthy fall!

BRANCHING OUT

PRF COMMUNITY INVESTMENT PROGRAM (CIP) – Improvement Project Updates

2020 has been an exciting year for construction projects at the Parks, Recreation and Forestry (PRF) Department! These projects are part of the City of Waukesha Community Investment Program (CIP).

Approved 2020 PRF projects are varied and multiple. Many of them are renovation/reconstruction of existing facilities demonstrating the City’s commitment to the park system by continuing to maintain and improve what we have, while expanding where we can to meet the City’s growing and varied needs.

Here is a brief sample summary of what has been taking place: • Buchner Park Pool is being reconstructed after serving the City of Waukesha for over 52 years. It will have a very similar feel layout to the old Buchner Pool with a 50-meter lap pool and a “kids pool”, but with the addition of a current channel and several small slides. The new bathhouse building will also have a community room available for year-round use to serve programs and rentals. Completion is scheduled for May of 2021.

• The iconic baseball diamond along the Fox River in Frame Park has been a community fixture for many years.

Work has begun to completely renovate the field with synthetic turf, new dugouts and field fencing. This is being accomplished in partnership with Carroll University, who has committed $690,000 towards the project. Completion is scheduled for mid-November of this year.

• At Mindiola Community Park, work has begun on constructing a full-sized synthetic turf soccer field with LED sports lighting system. The new facility will greatly aid programming needs, minimize cancellations and provide a high-quality playing surface. Completion is scheduled for mid-November of this year.

• New playgrounds will be constructed this Fall at both Grandview Park and the new Meadowview Community Park. Both projects will be volunteer “Community Builds” occurring in September. Check out page 33 for more information.

• At Heyer Park, four (4) tennis courts are being reconstructed at the Woyahn Tennis Complex/Center.

This reconstruction is a partnership with the Waukesha Tennis Association, who contributed $100,000 to aid the project.

• The installation of new park lighting is taking place at Grandview Park and is near completion. The lighting is a traditional style that is used in a growing number of our parks, as well as in the Downtown area. In addition, the pavement leading up to and around the park shelter is being replaced.

• Park lighting was also installed at Meadowview Community Park earlier this year. There is also ongoing work on the storm water detention basins, and turf and prairie grass restoration. Further, there will be a new footbridge installed this Fall over the “wetland gap” completing the paved pathway loop.

• Parking lots at Banting Park and Mindiola Park (along Hoover Avenue) have both been reconstructed to better serve park patrons.

• Installation of a new lighting system at the Buchner Park tennis courts is currently in progress. The use of LED technology will significantly improve lighting quality and uniformity, while reducing spill and glare by about 50%.

• At Woodfield Park South, stream restoration work is taking place to revert the stream back to its natural state and habitat. The project is aided by a WI DNR grant.

• Tuckpointing and masonry work is scheduled for the Neumann Dome located in Youmans Park (Downtown).

Also, heater upgrades will take place to help ensure year round functioning of the “lighted fountain”.

• At the Schuetze Recreation Center, new roofing will be installed over the Riverview Room along with completion of several door replacements.

• There are many park shelter and restroom buildings all over the City. Every year, systematic improvements are completed to help keep them functioning well and meeting a high level of user demand.

The above indicated projects are only a sample of the myriad of work that is taking place daily. As a Nationally Accredited Park and Recreation Agency, we strive to maintain and improve our valued park system, helping to make Waukesha a great place to live, work and play!

Pickleball Drills & Skills Workouts for Equally Skilled Partners

Most everyone agrees you can’t improve playing a game by just playing the game. If you are an experienced competitive player, come improve your pickleball skills with multiple workouts of repetitive drills. With minimal instruction and demonstration, the basic shots of the game will be practiced multiple times in various drills. The basic shots include serves, return-of-serves (drives), drop shots, dinks, volleys/ blocks, lobs and overheads. At the end of each session, time will be given to play a game applying what’s been drilled.

This class meets for two hours on four Tuesday afternoons.

Recommendation: sign-up with an equally skilled competitive partner. Wear good court shoes. Eye protection is recommended, but optional. Helpful resources will be emailed to registered students.
