City Award

 City wins building design award

The Moreno Valley Parks and Recreation Department has won a state-level award for building design for the new Conference and Recreation Center. The award was announced by the California Parks and Recreation Society (CPRS). Moreno Valley won for Facility Design - Community Centers/Facilities in the over 100,000 population category.

The CPRS awards program recognizes excellence of those agencies and individuals who publicize, develop and manage programs, parks and facilities.

“We were up against some tough competition including the City of Rancho Cucamonga,” said Recreation Operations Manager, Karen Reams. “With the help of the architect, LPA, Moreno Valley was able to assemble a great application package featuring some outstanding photos,” she said.

The award will be presented March 18, 2006, at the CPRS Awards & Installation Banquet in Ontario, California. For more information contact the Parks and Recreation Department at 951.413.3728.
