Community Services had a busy summer and it’s translating into a bountiful autumn for our residents and patrons.The shortened Beverly Hills School District Summer posed some challenges, but our Recreation & Parks staff met them with enthusiasm and we just concluded another successful summer with 17 unique camps and a full range of aquatics programming. Fall aquatics keeps the fun going and many of our camp professionals work year-round in our after school enrichment programs: check out this brochure for all the details. Beverly Hills autumns feature long days and mild weather, so sign yourself or a family member up for a fitness class, enrichment opportunity or special event today.The Library also had a busy and fruitful summer, with four unique Summer Reading Clubs. As school begins again, make sure to enjoy all the Library has to offer year-round, from diverse resources to storytimes to the inviting quiet reading room.Anyone who drives along Roxbury Drive knows that summer construction of the forthcoming Roxbury Park Community Center was productive. As we enter the second phase of the project– constructing new park restrooms, addressing athletic field drain-age and irrigation issues and replacing the park’s playground equipment –our beloved Roxbury Memorial Park may experience more impacts and patron inconveniences. But much of the park, including lawnbowling greens, volleyball courts, picnic areas and tennis courts, remains open. We look forward to completing the project in early summer 2014 and introducing the community to its beautiful new facility. Details about the project are always available at www.beverlyhills.org/RoxburyProject. The Hamel Mini-Park renovation is complete and houses many improvements. This neighborhood park finally has amenities that make the space more useable and enjoyable for its area residents. The Community Services Department is proud to provide the park’s area residents with this beautifully refreshed local green space.As this brochure goes to press the Human Relations Commission is busy picking the next winner of the Embrace Civility Award. We encourage readers to check out the Embrace Civility campaign –along with all the other vital work being done by the Human Relations Commission and the Department’s Human Services Division–at www.beverlyhills.org/HumanServices.Finally, the Community Services Department is hard at work plan-ning for the year-long Beverly Hills Centennial celebration, which kicks-off January 2014. From Centennial-branding of cherished special events–such as The Beverly Hills artSHOW, Woofstock 90210 and The Greystone Mansion Concours d’Elegance–to assisting the City’s Centennial committees in executing twelve months of special programming and celebrations, we’re excited to celebrate 100 years of this vibrant community with our residents, patrons and guests.Enjoy this brochure and your autumn!
