The City of Lynnwood released the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Arts Department’s 2023/2024 Biennium Report. The report includes projects that are completed or in the works, such as the Scriber Creek Trail redevelopment, the opening of the Community Justice Center, public art and restoration of South Lynnwood Neighborhood Park.
“This report not only highlights the many achievements of the past biennium but also shares personal stories that reflect the heart of our work,” said Parks and Recreation Director Joel Faber in a press release. “From the resurgence of pre-pandemic participation levels to the thriving programs we offer today, there is much to be proud of, and even more to look forward to.”
Check out the biennium report on the city’s website.
Joel Fabre is an excellent choice for parks Director! He is a very personable and conscientious city employee. He’s not afraid to get his hands dirty or ask for input from park users.
I hope more attention is given to Daleway Park in the near future. It certainly needs a general cleanup and trim.
Unfortunately for Lynnwood the new director knows nothing nor cares about cultural and art related efforts. Actually tried to kill the arts and cultural commision. My experience, the former director was a lot better at integrating all the components and stake holders involved with the Parks, Recreation and Arts Department.
I am sorry to hear this. I think the cultural arts department should be separate from parks. I can’t see the connection. With the exception of the outdoor theater at Lyndale Park.
Perhaps this should be brought to the attention of the Lynnwood council
