During this endeavor, we learned that: • We are highly regarded by our members • 75% of our members say we have enriched their lives • We cater to multiple audiences and have a wide variety of offerings • We have a very lengthy name • There are blurred lines between service providers • We are not receiving credit for all we do because of confusion about who we are. The result of this effort is that on January 1, 2009, the District will begin doing business as the Desert Recreation District and embarking on our branding initiative. As part of the public education process, we request an opportunity to meet with your .governing body and administrative staff to discuss our branding venture. We believe your agency will play an important role in helping us brand the Desert Recreation District and aid valley residents in understanding who we are and our services. Please ret me know when we can make our presentation or, if Serving the you need additional information.

STAFF REPORT egT�9 3yo��f To: Parks and Recreation Commission From: Jay Niemczak, Parks Facilities Manager Date: December 16, 2008 Subject: Ironwood Park Playground On July 19, 2008, Staff published a Request for Proposal (RFP) to replace the playground equipment at Ironwood Park as part of the City's Parks and Recreation five- year capital improvement plan for playground upgrade and replacement. On October 9, 2008, the City Council awarded the Ironwood playground replacement contract to Innovative Playgrounds Company of Palm Springs, California. The playground design that is incorporated into Freedom Park is very popular with park users. Staff felt that a similar design at Ironwood Park would be a success. Innovative Playgrounds Company will begin demolition of the existing playground the week of December 29, 2008, and complete the new installation by January 16, 2009. Attached are pictures of the playground design for Ironwood Park. G:\DevServices\Janis Steele\Word Files\Commission\Updates\2008\December 16\Commissiom Report Ironwood Playground.doc 441 il t .
