Welcome to our 2010 Winter/Spring Parks and Recreation program brochure. Our department
is pleased to offer you a wide range of activities for the entire family to enjoy during the upcoming
months.

The Menomonie Parks and Recreation Department activities continue to provide a valuable
service to our community. They offer opportunities for learning new skills, building self-confidence,
keeping physically active, reducing stress, and allowing time to spend with family and friends. The
support of this community for our parks, recreation and aquatic programs has been excellent in the
past and we trust that you will support us by continuing to be involved.

If you have any questions or comments regarding our program offerings please contact our
department. We place a strong emphasis on being able to meet the needs of the community and arenxious to hear from you with any suggestions. We also have vacancies on the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board. This board meets once per month to provide input for the department on recreation and park issues. Please contact Mayor Kropp or our department if you are interested in serving on this board.

So be sure to take time to discover and enjoy the many opportunities and benefits available to
you with the Menomonie Parks and Recreation Department. We hope to see you at our programs or in the parks.
