FOOD TRUCK FEST – The Parks and Recreation Department along with the Police and Public Works
Staff hosted another very successful Fall Food Truck Fest on Saturday, September 17. The weather, food
and music were a big draw to people attending the event.
SUMMER PROGRAMS - It’s hard to believe that summer has come to an end for the Parks and
Recreation Department. We appreciate and value the feedback from parents and participants on our
program evaluations. Below are a few comments taken directly from submitted evaluations from this past
summer.
“I really hope this camp is offered again next summer for 7-12-year old’s! My daughter is already looking
forward to it!”
“The coaches were awesome! They not only taught some basic skills, but they did it in a way perfect for
this age! They knew the names of the kids by week 2. My son LOVED his 1st year of soccer!”
“The instructors did an amazing job!!! They were all so good about making sure any kids who were shy
(like mine) felt included and comfortable. My son was very shy to start the program and by the end he was
running off with the group! This program far exceeded my expectations! And again, the instructors did
such a great job with everything!!”
“The instructors were the best part! So engaging and they had fun with the kids. We did a program
through another City last summer and the instructors weren’t nearly as well-trained and in tune with this
age group.”
