How do we best serve the public?
The City of Camas Parks and Recreation Department and the Camas School District Community Education program are considering that question with the help of an advisory committee, which is exploring new partnership options for recreation services.
“We have excellent partnerships in the school and the city that did not come about by accident,” Mayor Scott Higgins said at a recent School Board meeting. “We are constantly looking for ways to make it even better. I felt there were some things parks and recreation were doing that community ed was also doing. Why not combine services?”
