In 2014 and 2015, Waukesha
County launched " How We Play,
Where We Play, and Why We Play "
to promote the park system and active play opportunities. This was a
takeoff on the Wisconsin Bike Federation's theme " How We Ride, Where
We Ride, and Why We Ride. "
We are continuing to offer a large
community garden space at Expo/
Northview Park, and we expanded
the community gardens for vegetables and produce at Eble Park, working alongside the University of Wisconsin-Extension Master Gardeners
Program to produce healthy vegetables for families and local agencies in
need. At Retzer Nature Center, we
expanded the exhibit garden space
with raised gardens to showcase
healthy native flowers and produce.
The city of Waukesha launched its
" Waukesha Walks " program, where
local ambassadors lead neighborhood walks for fitness and historical
interest. As a way to offer improved
healthy benefit choices, the coun	

ty partnered with the city and the
school district to offer its employees
and families, on a trial basis, a cooperative Health and Wellness Clinic to
improve access to affordable healthcare. At Moor Downs Golf, a nine-

hole golf course that's celebrating its
100th anniversary this year, we added
FootGolf. This activity benefits children as well as adults looking to try
something new and active.

Introducing colors that really make a splash!

textures, and spray effects to create compelling aquatic play
experiences for all ages.
