"In these articles, you will see our commitment to preserving and enhancing Eugene's <br /> parks, open waterways and wetlands for future generations." <br /> The newsletter unveils a new image developed to create a visual identity for the recently formed Parks and <br /> Open Space Division. The cover article features Hendricks Park. Other articles provide information on <br /> park planning and construction projects, give a tour of the west Eugene wetlands, offer tips on tree safety <br /> in the wake of the February 7 windstorm, tell about volunteer and educational opportunities in the <br /> community, and much more. <br /> Copies of the newsletter have been placed in this packet.
