Steward Spotlight Growing up in the Truckee Meadows, I have a deep appreciation for all the wonderful neighborhood and community parks that we have available to us as residents. I have fond memories of time spent with family, friends, and attending community events in many of these spaces. I volunteer because I enjoy getting out and exploring parks both familiar and new. I also get an opportunity to meet some great folks along the way. Giving a few hours of my time as a resource is an easy, inexpensive way to give back to my community in a small but impactful way. I believe we can all make an impression even with small gestures like picking up a piece of litter while enjoying time in our neighborhood parks. Jill Serving Since 2024 Thank You Jill!

Letter in Support of Sparks Parks

With community input, the City of Reno and the Somersett Owners Association have partnered to design and build a new park in West Somersett. Rosewood Bridge Repair Project Goal : To repair the emergency acc ess bridge at Rosewood Nature Study Area Project Description: Lauren Jilot’s Eagle Project focuses on restoring a bridge at the Rosewood Nature Study Area. The bridge was built originally in 1990 and is 10 feet wide by 99 feet long. It’s the only way a full size vehicle, including an emergency vehicle, could access the Nature Study’s trails. The bridge cannot withstand the weight of a vehicle in its current state and is blocked off. If there were to be a medical emergency on the property, first responders wouldn’t be able to bring vehicles onto the property. The bridge also allows space for overflow parking and extra storage. To restore the bridge, she must purchase and install new decking, metal strap ties, bolts, and screws. She must hire a construction company to re-deck the bridge so that it's done correctly and professionally to ensure long term safety and stability. This project was completed October 2023 but your support helps maintain the bridge and support Lauren's work! Donate 1/6 Thank you to all the community members supporting this project. Donate today to help repair the Rosewood Nature Study Area Access Bridge!

Reno Tennis Center Improvement Project Every year thousands of children and adults alike use the courts at the Reno Tennis Center, with your support , we have worked to resurface and improve 14 of the 16 courts. Now the project is in it's next phase and we're focused on installing misters and shade structures throughout the center.
