	Parks & Recreation Jazz in the Park Featuring Paul Taylor

Parks and Recreation demonstrated the County’s excellence when it recently received four program and park awards at the Nevada Recreation and Parks Society’s Annual Conference. The department’s Aquatics Program won for the Junior Triathalon; Paradise Recreation and Community Center won for its teen program Punk Rock Paradise, the Cultural Division’s Winchester Center won for its World Vibration folk music series; and Lone Mountain Children’s Discovery Park won the Elmer Anderson Park Award.

The department was also honored with several kudos from the Las Vegas Review-Journal’s annual “Best of Las Vegas” poll. Sunset Park, a perennial favorite, was singled out for Best Park, as were its ball fields and tennis courts. Desert Breeze was second in the Best Park category and won for Best Skate Park. The Wetlands Park was cited as the Best Place to Watch Nature.
