2019 SUMMER Warren County Parks and Recreation www.warrencountyva.net Summer Registration Begins May 1, 2019
Our leisure time is a valuable commodity, and for this reason the Warren County Parks and Recreation Department strives to offer a wide variety of activities geared towards fulfilling the needs of all our residents. We offer affordable structured activities for all age groups that are recreational, social, cultural, physical, and creative. Our dedicated and trained staff is entrusted to provide the community residents with the best service possible. The staff of the Warren County Parks and Recreation Department proudly presents a listing of programs and activities available in our community for everyone. The current Summer 2019 brochure details a wide variety of community trips, youth and adult activities, and special events. We hope that you take some time this summer to explore our parks and facilities. Please visit our website at www.warrencountyva.net/parks-and-rec to stay up to date on all Department information or stop by our Department’s administrative or recreation offices. A recreation directory in each brochure provides names and contact information for the individuals responsible for many of the area’s recreational activities, youth sports organizations, and golf courses. We encourage you to go online and start using the Parks and Recreation Department’s online registration for classes and activities at parksandrecreation.warrencountyva.net. We will still offer walk-in registration for those individuals who wish to register in person, and, as always, you will still be required to come to the office in person to rent a County-owned facility. We are pleased to announce the plans to construct a new special park amenity to our Parks and Recreation system this year: a new splash pad located behind the Raymond E. Santmyers Youth Center replacing the old lighted water fountain in Dr. Saul Seide Memorial Gardens Park. On behalf of the Front Royal Golf Club Advisory Committee and the County of Warren, we would like to express our sincere appreciation of your continued support of the Golf Club during the past year. We continue to work toward our goal of making this a break-even operation and reduce the need for taxpayer support while keeping this one of the more affordable places to play golf in the region. During the November 2018 Advisory Committee meeting, the 2019 membership fee structure was revised to include several additional club benefits to make it more attractive for all golfers. Type I and II memberships include cart fees, greens fees, handicap fees, boating fees, and one (1) free use of the banquet room. Type III memberships can now enjoy play 7 days a week with only the cost of cart fees. The Front Royal Golf Club, established in 1938, continues to serve as your community golf course. We hope that you can come out and “Play the Best 9 Holes in the Shenandoah Valley” while taking in the magnificent views of the adjacent Shenandoah River. The Department has made significant strides in recent years in sharing services between the Warren County Public Schools Athletic Departments and other recreational organizations, thus improving maintenance at park and athletic facilities and building positive working relationships with all of the youth sports organizations. The Department has enjoyed tremendous success thanks to strong community support and participation, and we look forward to serving you in the future. “Come Grow With Us”! Daniel P. Lenz Director dlenz@warrencountyva.net
