community not wanting to support
having these kinds of resources available
for their kids and future generations
to come...These things don’t take care
of themselves... We’ve been incredibly
blessed because our parents and
grandparents had the foresight to
build this kind of infrastructure
to make our community great...”

Columbus Park Foundation December 2012
These words were not scripted but were the first
to come to Hutch Schumaker’s mind when asked
about his passion for parks and park amenities in
our community. He went on to say how his fondest
memories were of Donner Park, where he spent most
of his childhood days during the summer and after
school having the best of times in the park, at the
pool and enjoying many of the parks and recreation
programs.
We often forget how our park system is a resource
essential to what makes our City special for all to have
access to green space, be active, get fresh air, and
enjoy nature for good health and well-being.
I recently read a statement from Mayor Michael Nutter
of Philadelphia who said, “I think the competitive,
attractive, livable cities of the future are
those that care about their natural resources
and provide children and families with
opportunities to be safe, active and engaged.”
focus
There are many components that make a city a great
place to live, work, play and visit . This past year
our concentration has been on the expansion of our
People Trail Network because residents told us they
viewed expansion as a priority. They also believe
the People Trails to be one of the great resources
our city offers.
In the Spring of 2012 we were awarded designation
as a “Bicycle Friendly Community”, which added
to our previous notable award as a “Walkable
Community”. This is a step in the right direction. A
goal of expansion is to bring 90% of the community
within 3 blocks of a bicycle or pedestrian facility,
connecting residents to key destinations such as
schools, work, retail, our beautiful downtown and of
course our parks.
Mayor Michael McGinn of Seattle, said, “In a
great urban place, you have the walkability
and access to transit that helps to reduce
our reliance on single-occupancy vehicles.
You have stores, restaurants and businesses
nearby. You have vibrant, busy streets full of
people and activity. And you have parks and
open spaces for people to gather or to simply
be quiet and enjoy the city’s incredible beauty.
You have to have all the elements in place to
create great spaces and parks are essential to
that.”
For these reasons and many more, The Columbus
Park Foundation has created The Generations Club.
Take a peek inside to hear what our Mayor has to
say about Parks & Recreation and learn more about
how you can help the sustainability and growth of
our parks and park programs... for generations to
come.

As Rick shares, we are truly fortunate to have the wonderful resources
that fall under our Parks & Recreation Department. Those who came
before us cared about these amenities being available to those of us
who enjoy them today. As Rick explains, it is this generation’s time to
begin to create and leave an even better environment for those that will
follow.
“Parks are critical public spaces. They create connectivity, health and a
natural ‘break’ from the concrete urban environment for residents, and
they make communities more livable.” (Financing the Future:
The Critical Role of Parks in Urban and Metropolitan Infrastructure)
Our Parks are a free resource to residents, and the Columbus Parks
& Recreation Department strives to keep fee based programs at the
lowest costs possible. Public funding will never cover what it takes to
maintain what our great City offers, so it is crucial that the formation of
partnerships are created to sustain our parks, People Trails, and unique
recreational facilities for the good of our health. Quality of life is crucial
to the well-being of our residents.
Through the Generations Club, you can truly make a difference. Your
annual gift to The Columbus Park Foundation Endowment will help
to build the funds that will carry on the legacy of beautiful Parks and
unique recreation facilities that past generations invested in for the good
of our community.

Along with success has also come unexpected challenges.
The once available Transportation Enhancement
federal dollars, we planned to pursue,
have been revised and there is uncertainty
to the amount of funding available.
There will need to be more creative
thinking and pursuit of additional
dollars in order to assure
the $4,000,000.00 in “other sources”
is acquired. The good news is the
community has generously contributed
(defined as “cash collected”)
approximately 50% of the Campaign goal.
The even better news is 97% of the
campaign goal has been reached
through pledges made over the course To watch all the photos come to life,

If you have not yet contributed to the People Trail expansion, become
“A Friend of the People Trail Network” and join others who want to see
this expansion. You too can proudly wear your “Join The Movement” dri-fit
shirt and “Inch to Mile” bracelets and demonstrate to others your support for
alternative transportation. Go to columbusparkfoundation.org to determine

We end the year with much to celebrate. Nearly $1 million in private
funding has been pledged to the Campaign. Three projects have been
completed and several projects are in progress. Among the most exciting
projects is the connection entitled “the Downtown Trail” which will connect
Jonathan Moore Pike and Mill Race Park to State Street and the existing
Haw Creek trail.

The Catalyst in the Campaign, the Heritage Fund, challenged community
members to show their support for the expansion by raising an additional
$250,000.00 to match their generous, lead contribution. The community
came to hear the “big announcement”, pertaining to their People Trails,
during the biggest Tour de’ Trails event in its history of 11 years. This was
the start of a succesful year...
• Construction cannot begin until contributions are actually collected.
• There is uncertainty as to the amount of “Federal Funding” available and
we know these funds have been reduced.
• The Heritage Fund’s challenge was a $250,000.00 challenge to the
general public and to-date $100,000.00 has been contributed (and
collected) from the general public.

In less than six months, by spreading the word about the value of
investing in such an infrastructure, our Campaign Leadership Committee
raised more than half of the Campaign goal in time for a public kick-off
event in April 2012, during the Annual Tour de’ Trails event. We are
grateful to Rick Johnson, Dave Barker, Mark Levett, Bob Stevens, Hutch
Schumaker and Jeff Brown for paving the way to a successful campaign.
We are also grateful to our Working Committee Members: Laura Garrett,
Angela Force, Linda Forster, Will Kostrzewsky, Patrick Pierz, Laura Hack,
Frances Jordan, Kristin Munn, John Wischmeier, and Jen Shaver.
It is evident the community is excited about seeing the PeopleTrail Network
happen. However, in order for Phase 1 of this expansion to occur it is important
for the community to know there is still a need and here’s why:

Contributing to the long-term sustainability of our parks...
S
This time last year, I was among a group of passionate community leaders
who were strategizing to determine how to raise $1 million dollars in
private funding to leverage $4 million in other sources, which combined
would mean $5 million dollars in expansion of our People Trail Network
(The key word being “Network”). The expansion includes 18 projects
consisting of multi-use trails, bike lanes, sharrow lanes, connectors,
sidepaths and other “facility types” to make up a new “network” of bicycle
and pedestrian facilities. This would mean a more consistent corridor
to allow diverse users to get to key destination sites throughout our city.
This would also mean a strong focus on what is commonly referred to as
“alternative transportation”. What is alternative transportation? It is an
option for our residents to use non-motorized vehicles as their means of
transportation rather than solely relying on automobiles. For some, this is
their only option.

The Generations Club
What’s Your Passion?
When you ask someone to share the story of their childhood, usually
a fond recollection of playing in parks, on playgrounds, going to the
community pool, ice skating, participating in camps or other athletic
programs is included. That’s what happened when The Park Foundation
began a series of videos that shared, from the perspective of others, what
the availability of Parks & Recreation’s amenities has meant in their lives.
Our community is built on the pride and investment of past generations.
Green landscapes, People Trails, unique facilities such as Hamilton Center
and of course, parks like Mill Race, Donner, Mead Village, and Lincoln
beautify our City. With the challenge of enough public funding available to
not only maintain these wonderful resources, but also allow for the growth
needed to keep up with the demand of new and improved recreational
activities, there is an essential need for perpetual giving.
“I am thrilled to see The Columbus Park Foundation plan creative ways
to bring public and private funding together to assure the sustainability
of the wonderful recreational amenities offered to our residents and
visitors. Our Parks Department is an essential partner in contributing
to the environmental, economic and health benefits of our City. Our
People Trails, for instance, offer a great resource for residents and
are an attraction that draws visitors and even new residents to our
City. Research shows availability and access to open space and
recreational areas influence how active people are, and living close
to parks and recreational facilities strongly relates to higher physical
activity for people of all ages. I am grateful to those individuals who
have been so generous toward improving these kinds of amenities
in our City. I look forward to some exciting, upcoming projects that
will continue to make our City one of the best destinations to live and
visit.” Mayor Kristen Brown
The Generations Club is a way you can help the sustainability of the free
and/or very low cost recreational programs and amenities that influence
the daily lives of our children and our community. As a community, we can
impact these quality of life offerings and assure they are always available.
The Generations Club is a program vital to the future growth and success of
our Parks Department. We’ve made it easy for families to help sustain what
we have today and grow the assets of our community by choosing your
“passion” in one of the following four areas: People Trails, Parks & Park
Facilities, The Chuck Wilt Scholarship Program or The Park Foundation
Endowment.
As a Generations Club member, your annual commitment allows the Park
Foundation to plan and grow programs and facilities to a greater level... for
generations. As a “thank you” to our loyal contributors we want to “give
back” to those making an investment in the future of our parks, and here’s
how...

Chuck Wilt Youth Scholarships
Something very exciting happened for the Chuck Wilt Youth Scholarship
Program during the 2011 Holiday Season. Our wish came true... and
more importantly, the wishes for many children
who look to the Columbus
Park Foundation for a way to
participate in Parks & Recreation’s
many fun activities that typically
they would not be able to
experience.
So how did wishes come true?
Thanks to the “Grant A Wish
Program” offered by The Heritage
Fund, the Community Foundation
of Bartholomew County, we were
able to better promote the need
for Youth Scholarships and, like a
Christmas Miracle, many individuals

business was Elwood Staffing, who
generously matched the contributions
given to the Chuck Wilt Scholarship Program
and doubled our contributions!
Each year, the demand for youth scholarships increases. Based on
financial need, once eligible,The Park Foundation awards families up to
$105.00 per child to choose up to three Parks & Recreation activities.
In 2012, The Park Foundation has already awarded over $14,000.00 in
scholarships. This program allows children the opportunity to have the
same experiences as their peers, experiences that can help to identify
their talents, teach them new skills, build their self-esteem, stay active
and more.
“As a mother, I like my children to be able to be involved in activities
that they otherwise wouldn’t be able to be involved in if it wasn’t for
the Columbus Park Foundation...I’m very grateful...Her personality has
definitely blossomed and she’s more open to friendships with children that
she probably would never have gotten to know...”
This is a quote from Bridget, a recipient of the Chuck Wilt Scholarship
Program, speaking about her daughter Anni who enjoys participating in
Parks & Recreation’s gymnastic program.
You too have an opportunity to contribute to the Chuck Wilt
Scholarship Program. Send your check directly to The Columbus Park
Foundation in the enclosed envelope. We are grateful to the Heritage
Fund for their partnership in helping us to give every child a chance to
have fun at Columbus Parks & Recreation!
Parks & Park Facilities
900+ Acres of Green Spaces, 23 Parks and 4 Unique Facilities
We’re teaming up with Tony Stewart & Carter Oosterhouse to
make playgrounds better for kids...
Everyone should have access to safe places to play and be physically
active. The evidence is clear both locally and nationally; regular physical
activity is critical for healthy mental and physical development, the
prevention of chronic disease and even reducing health care costs,
according to the Prevention Institute. But even more important is for
our children to stay active and have access to public parks in order to
increase their physical, mental and developmental state.
That’s why The Columbus Park Foundation has teamed up with the
Tony Stewart Foundation, the Carter’s Kids Foundation and the City of
Columbus in an initiative to improve some of our neighborhood parks,
making them more inviting and safe places for kids to play and families to
enjoy. “We are honored to participate in this wonderful project with The
Columbus Park Foundation and Carter’s Kids to help provide children with
all physical abilities a fun, safe place to play!” Tony Stewart & The Tony
Stewart Foundation
The Carter’s Kids Foundation, founded by Carter Oosterhouse (of TLC’s
Trading Spaces and HGTV’s Carter Can), promotes activity, nutrition,
and fighting childhood obesity. This purpose has led them to build
playgrounds all over the United States. Representatives of this initiative
are actively seeking sponsorships from businesses and individuals.
quality of life
“Parks and playgrounds are important spaces for children and adults for
physical activity and are among ways to create or enhance access to
physical activity for Americans.” (Taken from the 2012 Study: Let’s Go to the
Park Today; The Role of Parks in Obesity Prevention and Improving the Public’s
Health)
As a partnering sponsor, your participation will include:
• Media coverage of the positive impact from your gift.
• Media interview and photo opportunities with key celebrities: Tony
Stewart, Carter Oosterhouse and Amy Smart.
• Special invite to an event involving community leaders
• and key celebrities.
• Reward of knowing you made a
difference in the lives of children.
There are many ways to be a part
of this exciting project. Financial
gifts are needed as well as in-kind
contributions that can help in the
preparation of building playgrounds.
Volunteers are also needed in the
planning of a community event.

Hamilton Center Ice Arena ~ A unique facility
Along with a unique facility built over 50 years ago comes challenges, and
Hamilton Center has certainly had its share. However, programs continue
and users push on despite inconveniences that come with an aging building
that has had a lack of sufficient funding to address much needed repairs,
upgrades and overall maintenance. Hamilton Center staff work hard to
repair and extend the life of equipment and the structure of this treasured
recreational amenity. In fact, over the past year, approximately $350,000.00
in public funds has addressed the most critical needs. Additional private
funding, from the Reeves Foundation, generously assisted in a control
system to help reduce energy costs.
During the City’s budget process,
the time and talents of many
helped determine resolutions
for upgrades and replacements
to bring Hamilton Center back
to the standards it once was.
The Parks and Recreation
Department was pleased to
receive a much needed
allocation of funding from the
City’s repurposing of the EDIT bond.
Work to make improvements to
Hamilton Center can now begin.
Because this funding is intended to be used to address several Parks &
Recreation facilities, there are still many needs for Hamilton Center that fall
beyond what the City’s funding can address. That’s when the “Friends of
Hamilton Center”, a group who understood the necessity of bringing private
and public funds together, stepped in.
In April of this year, the “Friends of Hamilton Center” hosted an event entitled,
”Dice for Ice” at Mark and Wendy Elwood’s home. Guests were treated to
an evening inclusive of the finest food with Chefs Gethin Thomas and Daniel
Orr, a wine tasting, music, and a professionally ran casino. Yet all the fun
was not without a purpose but rather for a very concentrated effort... to raise
dollars to improve and preserve our city’s ice arena. Guests were made
aware of the magnitude of needs and the vision of restoring Hamilton to its
fullest capabilities. To this guests responded with generous contributions
resulting in over $65,000.00 toward meeting the first phase of improvements
for this cherished facility.
The Columbus Park Foundation is grateful to all who participated in this
event and to those who will continue to support our unique, community gem.
Hamilton Center offers a wide variety of ice related activities for children
and adults, as well as a very intimate and unique option for events. It also
remains on our City’s architectural tour, making Columbus unique by design.
If you would like to learn more about the vision for Hamilton Center, please
contact the Columbus Park Foundation and watch for upcoming ways you too
can help to grow Hamilton Center into the future...
