Director’s Note
Scott Morgan, Community Services / Parks & Recreation Director Douglas County Parks & Recreation / Community Services Department. Business is Booming! Most people are shocked to learn that during this downturn in the economy that parks, recreation, senior services and public transit are experiencing higher demands on their services. Over the past year we have seen growth in park use and demands on facilities; as well as increased attendance in recreation programs, ridership of the DART public transportation system and an increase in requests for Meals on Wheels, Homemaker Services and congregate Senior Center meals. The Community Service’s staff including Parks, Recreation, Senior Services and the DART Public Transportation System has risen to the occasion to accommodate these additional pressures even through budgetary shortfalls experienced over the current and previous budget years. With the elimination of over 13 full-time equivalent positions out of these departments, existing staff has stepped up taking on additional responsibilities. The County Board of Commissioners and the County Manager’s Office has made the continuation of these services a priority, supporting the Community Service’s Department to the greatest extent possible. We recognize that the challenges are great and further recognize the existing opportunities which take place in a community rich in resources and private assistance. We thank the community for their continued support through donations and volunteer hours; and encourage future participation to ensure that our community stays healthy, happy and vibrant for a well rounded parks and recreation program. If you wish to assist the Community Services Department in any way please feel free to contact me at your convenience at 775-782-9828.

Train. Practice. Compete. Win. Repeat as necessary. For some, sports provide a personal sense of achievement. For others, it’s the thrill of competition. And for others, it’s all about being part of the team. But no matter why you play sports, you don’t just learn how to be a better athlete. You learn to be a better person. And as a network of agents dedicated to teamwork and taking care of people, we’re proud to sponsor athletes of all ages – no matter what drives them to succeed. WE BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF SPORT.
