WinterHighlights

When the City of Burbank’s Parks and Recreation Department was established in 1925, there were only two recreational facilities, ten parks and a budget of $3,000. Today, the Department manages forty-one parks and facilities; a public golf course; and has an annual operating budget of over $17 million. For ninety years, the Department has played a key role in creating a sense of community and has prided itself in well-maintained recreation facilities; offering a wide variety of classes, events, and programs for participants of all ages; and access to a variety of special–interest activities such as volunteering, hiking, and golfing. The Department has become the heart of the community by providing enriching opportunities through dedicated people, beautiful parks and inspiring programs.To continue this tradition and to celebrate the Department’s 90th Anniversary, the Department is encouraging the community to Play More! Living in the twenty-first century, our lives can be consumed by smart phones, video games, laptops, tablets and countless other electronic devices. As a result, many of us have forgotten how to play. Studies have shown that the act of playing not only improves ones quality of life but, evident in the programming offered by the Department over the last ninety-years, playing also strengthens communities. The Department is challenging you and your family to let go of those electronics and schedule some time to Play More! Join us and discover the ninety ways that you can Play More at any one of our events and/or programs offered throughout the year.

Did you know?Virtually every park in Burbank is irrigated with recycled water. In a time of drought, when drinking water is in short supply, Burbank’s parks are offsetting over 100 million gallons of drinking water, year after year!

You may have seen the purple “Drought-Proofed!” signs dotting our parks and other City locations served with recycled water. The signs showcase sites that are protecting Burbank’s water supply. These sites are exempt from watering restrictions in place for precious drinking water resources. If you see a park or the Chandler Bikeway being irrigated on a day when you are not allowed to water your lawn, the reason is recycled water is being used.

Recycled water has greater salt content which means a longer run time is needed to push the salt below the root zone. Recycled water comes from Burbank’s Wastewater Treatment Facility and is approved for all uses except drinking. Burbank has a durable supply of recycled water. The more that this water is used, the better as it helps recharge our local aquifer.

2016 Burbank Tournament of Roses EntryThe Burbank Tournament of Roses Association (BTORA) is proud to announce that “Are We There Yet?” is the title of their float entry for the 2016 Rose Parade. This fits well with the parade theme of “Find Your Adventure”. Burbank has been a participant in the annual Rose Parade since 1915. This year’s 2016 float will mark Burbank’s 84th entry and 69th consecutive float in the Rose Parade!

The Burbank Tournament of Roses Association offers a unique opportunity for involvement by a broad and diverse segment of Burbank and its surrounding communities. These volunteers include students earning community service credits, scout groups, families and other interested citizens, many of whom have consistently volunteered their time, home-grown flowers, and creative talents throughout the years. These good neighbor efforts culminate when Burbank’s float is seen by millions, worldwide, on television on New Year’s Day. It is a rewarding experience for all volunteers who generously devote their time, love and energy for the Burbank Tournament of Roses float.

For information on how to get involved or to join the Burbank Tournament of Roses Association, please call the float Barn at 818.840.0060,

or visit their website at: http://www.BurbankRoseFloat.com
