Your Recreation Centers

Dear Residents,

When the City of Milpitas was incorporated 60 years ago, a gallon of gas cost 22 cents, “Rock Around the Clock” by Bill Haley and the Comets was on the top of the Billboard charts and Swanson introduced TV Dinners for the fi rst time! A lot has changed in the past 60 years, but one thing that has remained the same is Milpitas’ dedication to the concept of community. Recreation Services started as a small department with great vision offering summer camps and seasonal activities, but today’s guide offers special events, cultural activities, camps and classes for individuals of all ages throughout the year. Milpitas continues to progress and stay current, which includes upgrading our current registration system to a much more advanced, user & customer friendly system called ActiveNet. With this new system expected to launch in time for Summer 2014, customers will be able to update their profi les, change passwords, add family members, view daily activity schedules for your household, print past receipts, view prior transactions, make payments on accounts, search for activities, complete waivers, register online, search for facilities/parks and availability, buy and renew memberships and passes online and print childcare receipts for tax records all from their home or offi ce! As Milpitas Recreation Services looks towards the next 60 years, we envision a community that continues to grow together, learn together and play together. Happy Birthday City of Milpitas and “Thank You” to all our customers who continue to make Milpitas Recreation Services the place to be.

Sincerely,Carmen ValdezHuman Resources & Recreation Services Director

Volunteer Highlight

Milpitas Volunteer Partners

Make a Difference and Volunteer!The City of Milpitas hosts many community programs, events, and activities throughout the year that serve the Milpitas population and local surrounding areas. Volunteers are frequently recruited to assist in various aspects of these programs, providing valuable staff support, as well as help and encouragement to citizens.

Opportunities exist for working on a variety of tasks in every department within the City structure. Different opportunities are available at various times throughout the year and time commitments vary based on the specifi c task requirements and the volunteers’ availability. All those interested in volunteering must complete an MVP application, and participate in the screening and interview process.

Zachary Graham is currently volunteering in the Information Services Department and has been since October 2012. This past year Zachary has been a part of two major City wide IT projects. He was part of the Cisco VoIP phone system implementation and Desktop computer rollout projects. He was extremely helpful with the physical inventory of network ports throughout the entire City and with the deployments of the new Cisco phones and removal of the old phones. During the Desktop deployments; he learned about ghost imaging and was able to create and install several images on his own successfully. When he is not tasked in a major project, Zachary helps out with day to day offi ce work and organizing old equipment in the data center. Prior to working with the Information Services Department, Zachary started his volunteer work at the Senior Center; helping serve meals to the seniors during his winter breaks from school. We are grateful for the work and help that Zachary has provided and continues to provide to the City. Thank you, Zachary for all your hard work and dedication to the City, we appreciate it very much.

Volunteer Applications can be mailed to you or downloaded from www.ci.milpitas.ca.gov (in the Recreation Services Section).

Here they will begin working seriously with the regulation ball and will begin preparing mentally, physically, and emotionally for competitive play.
