Featured park of the newsletter Do you like the outdoors, but not the camping that comes along with it? Want to be able to shower, but don’t own a trailer? Palisades State Park offers cabin rent- als online for around $60.00—$80.00 dollars a night. These cabins have running water, air conditioning, hot showers, toilets, handicapped access, fridge, micro- wave, and bunk beds. Palisades Reservoir is a great place to take a swim on the sandy beachs or just relax and take in the sun. At the main office you can also rent paddle boards and paddle boats for a nominal fee. Paddling along the shorelines is a great activity for all ages. Palisades State Park also has excellent fishing year around for rainbows, cutthroat, and the occasional lurking tiger trout. Sanpete County along Skyline Road and all its can- yons boast some of the most pristine picturesque landscapes in all of Utah. Its beautiful trails are best explored by ATV, hiking, mountain biking, or 4X4s. Palisades State Park is located just yards away from the Arapeen ATV trail. The Arapeen Trail also connects up with the world famous Paiute ATV trail. Hundreds of miles of trail await you to view some of the most amazing wildlife and scenery Utah has to offer. Is fishing and hiking not really for you? Bring your clubs on the trip and come en- joy 18 holes of golf at the beautiful golf course overlooking Manti and Sterling Canyon as well as Palisades Reservoir. Our rates are awesome for a round of golf. And when you are done, stop by the Lakeside Grill for a hamburger. Its open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The Utah track and field program continues to provide opportunities for kids to compete and perform in running, jumping and throwing. The year 2014 marked the end of the Hershey track and field program. This 30+ year pro- gram was a success throughout the country with providing these opportunities to kids every- where. Local events were put together by parks and recreation departments and districts throughout the state. 1st and 2nd place winners move on to a regional meet. From this regional meet, the 1st and 2nd place finishers move on to the state meet. The culminating event was for kids to achieve a spot in their event at the national meet in Hershey, PA. With changes in place, URPA continues to provide the same experiences to kids interested in track and field. We host an annual meet once a year with qualifiers from the four regions throughout the state. There are changes made to the program. We have added a 6-8 year old, and 16-18 year old age groups. Also, we have added the shot put to the list of events, taking place of the softball throw for the older kids. A running long jump is also a competitive event for the older kids, from the stand- ing long jump. The vision of providing this sport is to contin- ue on with successful track and field sport that reaches out to each child across the state. It is a unique sport, in that we do provide a competitive state wide meet for the kids. We hope to continue to provide this opportunity and will continue to gain interest of kids throughout Utah. Scott Wardle is a graduate from the Parks and Recreation program at Utah State University. After graduating, his first job was working for the Canyon Parks in Springville, Utah for 5 years. He was there until securing a job with the Uintah Recreation District in Vernal. Scott has been there for 6 years.
