Another fiscal year has passed and at the

culmination of the third year of the ½ Penny tax for

parks and trails funding, Durham Parks and

Recreation (DPR) with support from General Services and Public Works continues

the progress of renovating and replacing park restrooms, paving of driveways and

parking lots, replacement of playgrounds, regrading of athletic fields and other

special projects.

Trails have been successfully incorporated into DPR’s plans, including the

development of the Trails Action Group (TAG), completion of the Trails Condition

Assessment, coordination with Public Works Stormwater’s Assessment of

stormwater structures in Parks, Trails and Cemeteries, and the transition of the

Durham Community Trail Watch Volunteer Group from the Police Department to

DPR. DPR has also taken on the responsibility of managing contracts for slope failure

repairs on the trails, and patching potholes with “coal patch”.

The DPR team stepped up yet again listening to the needs of the participants and

offered unique and popular programs, events and athletic programs including

Spinning and Pickleball (indoor and outdoor courts). DPR also expanded the Cultural

Heritage and Tiny Tots Programs.

Our Mission continues to be “Play More: Connecting our whole community to

wellness, the outdoors, and lifelong learning”. We couldn’t do this without our DPR

Employees (Part-Time and Full-time), the participants and residents of Durham, the

Durham City Council, the City Manager’s Office and our volunteers. We have come a

long way, and we will continue to improve our processes to ensure accessibility and

inclusion, through facility enhancements, customer service, and programming.

Thank You!

Master Plan in Practice

5

Since the adoption of the Master Plan in 2013, DPR has worked to accomplish the goals

of making connections, improving sustainability, and optimizing facilities and programs.

Making Connections

DPR hired a parks planner to focus on access to parks, trails, and connections to sidewalks.

Several connection trails are in development to connect parks to communities in partnership with the Transportation Department’s Bike and Pedestrian Coordinator.

Improving Sustainability

DPR has improved maintenance of facilities, continued to offer programming, and have remained within budgets. DPR continues to follow best management practices for land and water conservation.

Optimizing Facilities and Programs

DPR uses GIS maps to show distribution of planned, under construction, and recently completed projects to visually illustrate equity in project development.

Community

DPR uses recreation program staff to engage the community and assist planners in public participation for park projects.

DPR sends representatives to all PAC meetings and frequently meets with neighborhood associations. DPR has a range of community partners often facilitated through the RAC, the PACs, and the Durham Parks Foundation.

Connections

DPR has incorporated the trail system into the parks system with planning, development, and maintenance and looks for new pedestrian and vehicular connections to communities.

DPR received a $20,000 grant from NRPA and The Walt Disney Company to convert

the outdoor skating rink at W.D. Hill Recreation Center into a futsal court, as part of

the 2016 Parks Build Community campaign. DPR was also selected to participate in

the 2017 campaign, renamed Meet Me at the Park. The funds will be used to make

improvements to the outdoor basketball courts at Walltown Park.

Crest Street Park received a new playground and upgrades in August 2016 through a

grant from KaBoom valued at $150,000! Blue Cross Blue Shield of NC provided 230

volunteers to help build the playground. DPR also partnered with Keep Durham

Beautiful, the Crest Street Community Council, Achievement Academy of Durham,

and the Duke Durham Neighborhood Partnership for this project.

Additional grant-funded projects completed included the Challenge Flag Football and Multi-Cultural Tennis Lessons. The Durham Parks Foundation was awarded $25,000 from PetSafe to build a small dog park at Duke Park.

Renovations & Development

The City purchased 50 acres of land located on Hoover Road in January 2017 for development of an athletic park.

The playground at Indian Trail Park was renovated with new equipment, benches, and plantings. Repairs were also made to the sidewalk around the playground to increase accessibility. Vegetation was removed from the area between the playground, parking lot, and adjacent street, with help from The Goat Squad.

The tennis courts at Elmira Avenue Park and Southern Boundaries Park were renovated.

Basketball courts at Red Maple Park and Sherwood Park were renovated.

The dehumidification system at Edison Johnson Aquatic Center was replaced.

1/2 Penny for Parks & Trails

New guardrails were installed at C.R. Wood Park and Lakeview Park, totaling 715 linear feet of guardrail.

Bathroom renovations were completed at Southern Boundaries Park, Whippoorwill Park, and Wrightwood Park.

Parking lots were paved at Red Maple Park, Duke Park, Lakeview Park, and Wrightwood Park.

Repair of the drainage pipe under the Forest Hills Park picnic shelter was replaced.

Trees were cleared around athletic fields at Pineywood Park and Valley Springs Park, to allow for better turf growth and maintenance.

Entrance gates were installed at Sherwood Park and Walltown Park. Fencing from an old ballfield was removed at Walltown Park to create an open play meadow.

Repairs were made to the skate park at Durham Central Park.

The playground at Long Meadow Park was resurfaced, after the surfacing was washed away by flood waters.

Field and court repairs were made at several parks. Infield materials and drainage improvements were made to Valley Springs Park. Crest Street Park received infield drainage materials and grading. Cracks in the tennis courts at Rock Quarry Park were repaired.

Park Maintenance

Park Maintenance

The poured-in-place rubber safety surfacing at Forest Hills Park playground

was replaced, as well as one swing set. The new swing set includes one

accessible swing seat.

Sherwood Park athletic court renovation was completed in April. Two

previously under-utilized basketball courts were converted into a futsal

court.

The playground at Indian Trail Park was replaced. The previous playground

was over 20 years old and no longer met current safety standards. Staff

worked with the community to choose a playground that met their

expectations.

The playground safety surfacing at Long Meadow Park was replaced after

floods that resulted from Hurricane Matthew. DPR Maintenance staff

worked together with Public Works staff to remove debris, install drainage

mechanisms, and prepare the playground for new safety surfacing.

Maintenance staff worked together with Durham Bulls Baseball Club crews

to upgrade the baseball fields at Long Meadow Park.

Maintenance Crews participated in their first “Park Convergence” at Burton

Park in June. The maintenance team converged on the park and spent the

day doing a heavier than normal maintenance service. They were able to

make noticeable changes in the park with an “all-hands-on-deck” approach.

Their efforts included: clearing brush, trimming tree limbs, fence repair,

playground repair, removal of 6 inches of silt for pedestrian walkways, and

pressure washing the picnic shelter and walkways.

DPR Maintenance staff have acquired responsibility for landscaping

services at Edison Johnson, Campus Hills, W.D. Hill, Walltown Park, and

Weaver Street Recreation Centers, Forest Hills Neighborhood Clubhouse,

and Spruce Pine Lodge.

DPR partnered with WebMD Health Corp to plan their employee corporate social responsibility initiative, WebMD Impact Day on October 18, 2016. WebMD employees worked to clear out and prep the community garden at Edison Johnson Recreation Center for winter vegetables. WebMD also made a significant donation to the Durham Parks Foundation.

DPR’s Outdoor Recreation unit partnered with PAC5 for a Community Campfire at Edgemont Park in December 2016, to provide a “Photos with Santa” event for the neighborhood. Over 80 adults and children were in attendance.

DPR partners with Duke Athletics for the recurring program Kids Day Out. During this program, participants attend Duke football or baseball games, and meet the coaches and players.

DPR continued its successful partnership with Duke University Medical Center to treat childhood obesity at the community level. The program titled “Bull City Fit” was established in 2012 and its designed to integrate a state-of-the-art health system with one of DPR’s largest facilities, Edison Johnson Recreation Center. Clinicians, dieticians, physical therapists, and health educators from Duke Children’s Hospital Lifestyles Program worked with staff at DPR to develop a fitness program, nutrition education, gardening activities and peer support tailored towards treating childhood obesity at the community level.

DPR entered into a cooperative agreement with Triangle Ultimate for Summer Camp 2017, to teach our youth and teen participants Ultimate Frisbee through drills and skills sessions. With this agreement we were able to expose over 300 kids to this new opportunity and great sport.

Through a partnership with Durham Atle tico, free Futsal clinics are offered for youth at Lyon Park twice each year. In exchange, Durham Atle tico is able to use gym space for their league.

W.D. Hill Recreation Center has forged a collaborative relationship with Believers United For Progress (BUFP), as essential service providers in the neighborhoods which bound both adjacent facilities. BUFP provides activities including Family Fun Fest, Community Dinner, and HYPE Program (Hayti Youth for Progress).
