WELCOME TO PARKS & RECREATIONGet connected… The Hermiston Parks and Recreation Committee has been working hard since 1972 to make Hermiston a healthy, pleasant and vibrant community. The Parks Committee meets the second Thursday of each month, 5:30pm at City Hall and your ideas are welcome. This activity guide is filled with over 200 opportunities to add recreation to your life. Check us out on-line or “like” us on Facebook to be first in line for special offerings and promotions.

FALL 2018Parks & Recreation Guide

A 2016 survey showed an indoor aquatic center was the top “livability” priority for Hermiston residents, and the city is in the midst of a feasibility study to determine what it would take to get there. The conclusion of this work will include options to build a wellness centered facility to include an indoor com-petition pool, leisure pool, therapy pool, gymnasiums, running track, fitness areas, exercise rooms, and more. Why build a Health, Wellness and Indoor Aquatic Center?

• Economics – Employers want to locate where there is a healthy, growing labor pool. Boardman built their new rec center as an economic development initiative.

• Public Safety – We simply can’t get every child in Hermis-ton into a swimming lesson 3 months per year. Hermis-ton’s children should all be swimmers for their own safety.

• Livability - Hermiston is the largest city in Eastern Or-egon. This growth puts pressure on Hermiston’s public schools, parks, and services to provide the best possible place to live.

• Health – Year round exercise is the key to a healthy life-style. Access to affordable fitness is the best alternative to rising edical costs.

Congratulations!By registering in a Hermiston Parks and Recreation programs, you are making an investment in the health and wellbeing of your family. We work hard to make sure your recreational experience is exceptional and high value. While each program is unique, the following policies are developed to help manage your experience as a participant.

Resident / Non-Resident RatesBecause the programs offered by Hermiston Parks and Recreation rely on local tax payer support, non-resident fees have been instituted to offset the difference. The resident rate applies to participants that live within the Hermiston city limits.

Cancellation PolicyWe may be required to cancel programs for reasons beyond our control on rare occasions. Every effort will be given to reschedule an interrupted program as soon as possible. If a program cannot be rescheduled a pro-rated credit may be available to participants in lieu of a refund.

Withdrawal / Refund PolicyWe recognize that you may need to withdraw from a program for a variety of reasons. Because our programs are self-supporting, we rely on registration fees to operate them. If you withdraw from a program 7 days prior to the beginning date, a refund may be issued (less a $10 processing fee). A credit may be issued to participants for withdrawal within 7 days of the first date. Beyond the first day of a program, no refunds will be issued for a program withdrawal.

Photo PolicyCapturing the moment. By attending any Hermiston Parks & Recreation program, you understand that a picture of you or your family may be taken. We use photographs for quality improvement and also in future marketing materials. Names are not published without specific permission granted by a participant.
