Welcome to the Fall issue of the Parks, Recreation and Human Services Guide and Carson Report flip-book! On this side of the publication, you will find information on various leisure time activities, classes, excursions and upcoming events for every member of the family. On its flip side, you will find the latest news about Carson and up-to-date information on current events in our community as we put the spotlight on City projects and a variety of important local issues. We hope that you will find this flip-book -- and all its future issues -- useful in planning activities for the entire family, as well as getting informed on what’s going on in our community. You can also read us online at: http://ci.carson.ca.us/content/department/publicinformation A MESSAGE FROM THE Public Services General Manager As part of the Fiscal Year 2012/13 budget, the City Council has approved the City Manager’s reorganizational plan. One of the changes is to formally merge Human Services with Recreation Services. Additionally, the Public Services Workgroup will be called the Community Services Department. This transition will occur sometime in the fall and be fully implemented by the first of the New Year. It is believed that these changes will bring more communication between like services, as well as efficiencies that will save the City money. The good news is that Special Interest Classes are returning this fall! Due to a number of issues the City had with its implementation of the program, it was decided to suspend these classes until a resolution could be reached. After a three year hiatus, you will see within this Recreation Guide offerings that include Zumba, belly dancing, and flower arranging. Although we are starting small, staff will be adding classes on an on-going basis to meet the needs and interests of our residents. Now that school is back in session, we have many programs that can assist working families with cutbacks made by the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD). The City believes that the Early Childhood Education Program and the afterschool Kid’s Club Program will fill the void left by LAUSD cuts. Both City staff and I are looking forward to serving you through programs such as these throughout the fall and into the holiday season. Raymond R. Cruz Public Services General Manager 2 S e p t e m b e r • O c t o b e r • N o v e m b e r 2 0 1 2
