BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Adoption of the Resolution will close the County operated Regional Parks on the third Wednesday of November each year to facilitate a Regional Parks Department (Department) staff training day. The Department maintains and operates seven parks in San Bernardino County. These parks include Calico Ghost Town, Cucamonga-Guasti, Glen Helen, Mojave Narrows, Mojave River Forks, Prado, and Yucaipa Regional Parks.
In order to maintain a high level of customer service and uniform policies across the vast geographic region of the seven parks in the Department’s operating system, an annual training day will be scheduled on the third Wednesday in November in order to give all Department employees training in the areas of customer service, parks policies, current/emerging technologies, and park operating procedures. Wednesday has been chosen because it has the least impact to service during the week.
