Recreation and Community Services now encompasses all facility and field rentals, the City’s After School and Summer Day Camp programs, specialized teen, adult, and senior programming, recreational classes (I.e. music, Pilates) and management of the Rio Vista Municipal Pool. 2004/2005 saw the development of the first city recreation guide, Rio Link. Rio Link will continue to be published on a quarterly basis, along with the City newsletter.

The recreation program also coordinates the Alcohol, Tobacco, and Other Drug grant and City Team Collaborative. The Team’s greatest success over the past year was the inception of The Parent Project workshop in Rio Vista. Over the next year the group hopes to continue this workshop as well as target the ways in which children in our community obtain alcohol and other illegal substances.
