honored for its efforts to improve the community through its extensive efforts to collaborate and share resources with other local agencies. The district received the prestigious Collaboration Award for 2011 from the Colorado Special District Association (SDA). The 2011 Collaboration Award recognizes the efforts of Apex PRD and the City of Arvada to offer affordable, accessible and excellent recreation to citizens. The SDA notes that “…the collaboration between Apex PRD and the City of Arvada is a long-standing partnership…. the two have effectively managed resources, demand, and land use through expense sharing and cooperative master planning involving projects such as the Apex Field House and the Apex Simms Street Center.” These two facilities opened in late 2011 to rave reviews and are bustling with activity. For example, twenty-eight teams in four divisions turned out for the Youth Holiday 3v3 Indoor Soccer Tournament, the inaugural soccer event held two weeks after the Field House opened. Overall feedback on the new facility was very positive, with customers commenting in particular on the spectator experience, the beautiful panoramic view, the information and sound systems, and the new turf that feels like real grass. The Apex Simms Street Center, home to the gymnastics, cheerleading, dance and pottery programs, hosted nearly 200 community members at its grand opening in November. Space and equipment improvements to the gymnastics, cheerleading and dance programs enable the district to offer a complete spectrum of activities that compare favorably to any gymnastics studio in the area. The pottery program’s spacious new area includes improvements in the area of lighting, space and storage. Send us your Apex Park and Recreation District activity photos! If you have any high-resolution digital photos of Apex PRD activities that you’d like to share, send them in and we’ll consider them for inclusion in the activities guide. Send to info@apexprd.org with a description of the activity and date. Both of these facilities emerged from the need to relocate activities and programs at the Garrison Street Sports Center, 9101 Ralston Road, which is scheduled for demolition due to the US Army Corps of Engineers floodplain project. Neither project would have been possible without collaboration and entrepreneurial thinking, which led to major improvements for the community. APRD and the City of Arvada initiated discussions in 2009 to develop a plan to share resources to further the community’s best recreational and economic interests. The Apex Park and Recreation District Board of Directors looks forward to many more collaborative efforts in the future. Thank you for your positive feedback and support of our ongoing efforts! Please recycle this publication. Sincerely, This publication uses Elemental Chlorine Free paper, in conjunction with the International Joint Commission and is consistent with the US Environmental Protection Agency’s standards.

Parenting for a New Generation Ages 12+ Being the parent, grandparent or caregiver of a young child can feel overwhelming sometimes. It’s a time when you’re acutely aware of your role as a guide and protector in this crazy world with all its problems and challenges. You’re also striving for your own style amid the maze of positive and negative influences of family and friends. Recent scientific brain research has provided new insights into parenting, especially in the early years. Join us as we explore these new discoveries, increase our understanding of the brain, and learn how this information can influence our children’s development and all of our relationships.

Players under 11 years should remain in Trainees until a consistent 2-3 ball rally is accomplished. Court size can be modified for the older player just getting started with tennis. We strongly encourage skill practice outside of class. All players transition to the overhead serve and remain at this level until they can put a ball into play and maintain a 5-6 ball rally. We expand on the basic skills of forehand, backhand, volley, and serve as well as simple strategy and scoring. Lobbers are encouraged to participate in spring and fall Juniors Drill & Play, and the summer CARA program, which exposes players to entry level competition in a supportive environment.

If running away is not an immediate option, children may need to know how to physically get out of a situation. We DO NOT teach a child to stay and try to fight an adult.

The new City of Arvada Skate Park located at 12920 W. 72nd Ave., just east of the Apex Center, opened in early 2012. The City of Arvada owns and maintains all aspects of this exciting new amenity: maintenance, safety, landscaping, grounds, trash and restrooms. Apex Park and Recreation District runs some structured programs and lessons there, but the park itself is owned and operated by the City of Arvada. Please call 720‑898‑7000 with any questions or concerns. The park was designed by DHM Design Corporation, a local Landscape Architecture firm, and Team Pain Enterprises, a Florida company that specializes in the design and construction of skate parks. Urban Farmer Inc. is the general contractor on the project. These firms have worked closely with city staff, skate park committee members, and local skaters. Three public meetings were held to gather input in the design for the skate park, including landscaping, irrigation, lighting, site furniture, shade structures, decorative paving, walkways, and an entry road and small parking lot with the potential parking lot expansion. The park is for all ages and abilities from beginner to expert, and will operate most of the year, weather permitting. Hours are from dawn until the park lights go out at 10 pm. 93% of the $2.1 million park cost came from the fundraising efforts of the skate park committee and grants from the Colorado Lottery, Great Outdoors Colorado, Jefferson County Open Space, the Tony Hawk Foundation and other donors. The other 7% came from the city general fund. Apex PRD activities such as camps, clinics and learn-to-skate programs, will be announced soon.
