Watson Lake Dam Valve Repairs Project

The City of Prescott invites you to attend a

community open house meeting for the

Granite Creek Dam Outlet Rehabilitation

Project. The meeting will be held Wednesday,

April 11 from 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the Adult

Center of Prescott, located at 1280 East Rosser

Street. The open house will provide an

opportunity for community members to meet

the project team, ask questions, and learn more

about the project. All public input is welcome

and will be considered throughout construction.

The project includes the rehabilitation of

a deteriorated 36‐inch valve, stabilization of a

non‐working 48‐inch valve, construction of a

concrete and steel working platform, and the

installation of a metal slide gate, and cage for

debris collection. The proposed improvements to

the Watson Lake Granite Creek Dam will stabilize

the 48‐inch non‐working valve with concrete,

and remove and replace the leaking 36‐inch

valve, allowing the City to safely drain water for

downstream management, extending the valve

life into the foreseeable future. Phase I of

construction will begin on Monday, April 23 and

is scheduled to be completed by the Memorial

Day Holiday on May 28. Phase II of the project

will begin in fall 2018.

The City of Prescott is dedicated to keeping

Watson Lake Park users and the local community

informed of potential

construction impacts

throughout the project.

A barge (similar to the photo above) is scheduled to be put together on the south end of Watson Lake on April 23rd. The barge is large enough to float a crane, cement truck, and decompression chamber to the dam.

PARK IMPACTS

One of the boat ramps will be closed to public access during construction.

Hiking trails located near the north and south boat ramps will require detours. Trail users are asked to follow marked signage, respect the work zone, and take precaution when hiking near construction personnel and

equipment.

Work may occur Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

To speak with a project team member or receive additional information, please call the project hotline at (928) 237‐3114.

To supplement lower Goldwater Lake, upper Goldwater Dam was constructed for the City in 1932

as a surface water storage reservoir. It is a slab-buttress concrete dam with an integral spillway. It has a length of 383 feet and a height of 52 feet. The

maximum storage capacity is 700 acre feet.

Construction of the dam was in conjunction with dams on Banning (a.k.a. Bannon) and Miller Creeks

to obtain sufficient water for Prescott's growing population. Upper Goldwater Lake reservoir is open

to the public for recreational purposes year round. The park is occasionally closed due to heavy snow.

Morris Goldwater

Birth: January 16, 1852, England

Death: April 11, 1939, Prescott, AZ

The lake was named after Morris Goldwater, who was mayor of Prescott

for 20 years, intermittently between 1829 and 1927. Water was one of the major issues during this time, and he

worked on getting adequate water and sewer systems to Prescott.

Goldwater Lake

Consisting of 160 acres, Goldwater Lake park is located in the pine forest of the Bradshaw Mountains at an

elevation of 6,000 feet. The 15 acre reservoir was created in 1932 with the construction of the dam, and

is stocked with Largemouth Bass, Crappie, Sunfish, Catfish (Channel), Bluegill, and Trout, making it a

favorite among anglers. The Arizona Game and Fish Department (AZGFD) monitors the health of the lake

and stock it with trout. In 2016, AZGFD introduced the endangered Gila Trout into the lake. Along with

the Apache Trout, it is one of two trout species native to Arizona, both of which are endangered.

To compliment the park's original facilities, a new section was added in March 2014 and consists of two

new large ramadas, a ceremonial pad, playground, and several picnic tables with barbecues.

Surrounded by the Prescott National Forest, Goldwater Lake's Banning Creek Trail on the south side of the

lake gives hikers, via side trails, access to National Forest trails, including portions of the Prescott Circle

Trail, giving visitors unlimited miles of trails to enjoy. Birding is another favorite activity with Bald eagles

and great blue herons among many of the bird species regularly seen by visitors.

Because of its relatively cool weather during summer months, Goldwater Lake is a favorite among area

residents for gatherings and celebrations, from casual picnics to weddings, family festivities and company

barbecues. (Contributor: Nancy Nesbit)

New Storm Ranch Trails

With escrow closing on the Storm Ranch property on January 25, 2018, trail construction began almost

immediately on February 5, 2018. There are approximately six miles of new trail planned with an outer

loop now under construction. This phase of trail will be a relatively mild hike, although not as flat as

Peavine Trail. Other more technical, inner trails will follow and intersect the main outer trail. The terrain

in this area is varied with tall pine trees as

well as boulders. The main trail winds

through canyons. The Inner trails will

ascend to higher elevations. Existing barbed

wire fences along Peavine Trail will remain

and there will be many spring loaded gates

from Peavine Trail. Currently there is still a

cattle operation on the property, so visitors

may encounter cows. Estimated completion

for the project is fall 2018.

Long term plans include a trail from the east

end of the property extending through state

trust lands to the Glassford Hill trail system.

2017 Trail Counts

In 2017, trail counters were placed on 11 trails. Using previous figures on trails not counted in 2017, estimated visits on 95 miles of trail remains steady and totaled just over 800,000 visits in 2017. Even with the addition of new trails, yearly trail usage continues to be steady on all City trails. A yearly comparison on two of the busiest trails with counters for five consecutive years demonstrates this trend of steady trail usage:

2013 2014 2015 2016 *2017

Constellation 29,443 37,475 38,203 47,084 41,083 Peavine 52,583 58,127 59,396 59,624 53,568

*Figures for 2017 were distorted or down on these two trails due to 3 months of lost data on Peavine and roundabout highway construction at Constellation Trail. All other trail counts were steady or up.

The new Storm Ranch property (above, outlined in black) consists of

160 acres, adjacent to Peavine Trail on the east side. There will be many

gated entrances from Peavine Trail. With approximately six miles

of trail planned, the initial stage will follow the outer

boundary of the property.

Maps for all Prescott City trails are available and downloadable online at:

The Over the Hill Gang started building the Storm Ranch Trails on February 5, 2018. The work began on the north end of the property near the

Northshore Trail.

Sports Page

What is a multi-purpose use field? A multi-purpose use field is one that is utilized to accommodate more

than one sport on any particular field, which allows for increased participation and revenues. The City of

Prescott has a number of multi-purpose fields that are used for a variety of youth and adult sports leagues,

tournaments, events, and youth club teams that conduct many activities throughout the year.

Pioneer Park is primarily a softball complex for youth and adult slow

pitch and fast pitch leagues and tournaments, the fields are also used

for youth baseball, football, and soccer. From February through August,

the fields are used primarily for softball, but are transformed for youth

soccer, baseball and football tournaments throughout the summer. From

From May through August the City conducts slow pitch softball leagues

Monday through Friday evenings for 140 plus adult teams and hosts

multiple youth fast pitch and adult slow pitch tournaments over the

weekends. In September, the fields are prepared to accommodate over

1,000 youth soccer players who are members of our co-sponsored AYSO

Soccer Club for practice and games through the end of November with Pioneer Park their primary location.

Heritage Park is another site with four fields that hosts a variety of sporting

user groups, events, and tournaments. Although primarily for youth

softball and soccer, it also extends its use for specialty events such as an

Over the Line softball tournament and marching band training for

competition, requiring a football field layout. These fields are also used for

club teams to practice, but this complex also services larger

events in conjunction with Pioneer Park and other single area fields for

tournaments. Heritage Park is the primary home for the Prescott Girls

Softball Association for their entire program, including practices and games

from March through May.

Roughrider Park, (photo left) also known as Bill Vallely Upper and

Lower fields are the primary home for Prescott Little League and the

Yavapai College Softball program. These fields are also used

throughout the summer for girls fast pitch tournaments.

Historic Ken Lindley Field photo right)

services the Yavapai College soccer

team for their home matches and

practices. It also hosts adult city

leagues for Women’s 11” Slow pitch and Men’s Wooden Bat Fast Pitch.

Throughout the year it is also used for youth baseball, soccer and softball

tournaments.

Kuebler Field is primarily utilized as a baseball facility but has been used

for soccer tournaments and dog agility training in the outfield grass.

The City believes in maximizing the amount of activities and events for athletes of all ages and the various

sports they enjoy. We are always looking for additional opportunities to utilize these multi-purpose fields

and generate revenues through leagues, tournaments and practice rentals.

The key to operating successful multi-use fields is the

dedicated parks staff who tirelessly works hard to transition these

fields from one sport to the other throughout the year. Putting up

portable fencing for youth softball and baseball, painting specific field

dimensions for soccer and football are just a few adjustments that are

constantly made throughout the Sporting Events Calendar to

accommodate over 37 various sporting events that take place from

February to November.

If you have any interest in utilizing any of our City of Prescott athletic

fields for conducting a practice, hosting a tournament or simply

joining any of Prescott’s youth or adult sports programs, please

contact the Recreation Services office at 928 777-1122 for information.

Rangers Kathy and Mark Carpenter

A native of California, Kathy Carpenter resided there until her retirement in 2011.

Kathy worked as an Office Administrator, managing and operating the Los Angeles

office of an international accounting firm. Born in Akron, Ohio, Mark Carpenter

moved to Arizona when he was nine months old. After 27 years in Arizona, he

moved to the Los Angeles area. Prior to his retirement in 2010, Mark worked in

property management, maintaining and operating high-rise buildings in Phoenix

and downtown Los Angeles.

Mark and Kathy joined the Volunteer Park Ranger Program in January 2012. Over

time, their Ranger duties have evolved into making sure the trail map boxes are

stocked. Mark also assists Trails and Natural Parklands Coordinator Chris Hosking

with the installation and maintenance of trail signs. In addition, he is a volunteer

with the Over the Hill Gang. Aside from assisting Mark on patrols, Kathy collects

and maintains data from all the trailhead registers. The data provided informs the

City of Prescott about visitor impressions and usage of the trails. Mark and Kathy are a great example of

Rangers using their talents and interests in unexpected ways to enhance Prescott's parks.

Our Activities and Volunteers Evolution of the Park Ranger Program

The City of Prescott’s Park Ranger program resulted from needs of the department when staffing was at an

all time low. After the economic recession began in 2007, City wide budget cuts resulted in reorganization

of staff and eventually the formation of the volunteer Park Ranger program (officially formed in 2010).

While the needs of the program have morphed, the value of the volunteers has only increased over the

years. The program is still going strong, with approximately 22 consistent participants.

In the early days, Park Rangers were tasked with patrols that involved increasing patrol visibility in parks

that were experiencing vandalism and homeless camps leaving behind high volumes of litter. The

program has been remarkably successful in reducing these issues and assisting staff to keep our City

pleasant for visitors and residents.

As the needs of the department have changed over

the years, so have the roles of the Park Rangers.

Additional tasks now include assisting at the self pay

kiosk machines, refilling supplies such as dog waste

bags and trail maps, and occasionally washing a fleet

vehicle. Ongoing training and educational

components are also an important aspect of the

program. While fulfilling an ambassador role,

Rangers serve as the eyes and ears of the department

often reporting maintenance, safety and damage

issues that appear in the wide portfolio under the

Recreation Services Department.

Prescott Community Gardens

Many years ago, when growing food was vital for our survival, it

was a natural process that entire communities would unite.

Prescott Community Gardens offers those in the surrounding

areas an opportunity to unite and share the abundance from the

Prescott Community Gardens as a unified

community once again.

The Prescott Community Gardens’ mission is to promote

community growth, sustainability and self sufficiency through

gardening and the cultivation of vegetables, fruits, flowers,

herbs and native perennials, in individual and group plots.

The goal of the Prescott Community Garden is to build stronger

community through the implementation of an Agricultural

Education Center. The Center’s purpose will be to teach the

citizens of Prescott resource conservation techniques. The garden will hold a centrally located classroom

where workshops on rainwater harvesting, composting, gardening without chemicals, and gardening in

arid desert climates will be offered. Our hope is to connect Prescott citizens across cultural, political, and

financial barriers through gardening and the love of nature.

Would you like to volunteer your time at the Prescott Community Garden? We are always looking for extra

help! Here are just a few of the volunteer opportunities available:

Helping in the garden (planting, watering, harvesting, etc.)

Distributing flyers for events

Teaching gardening classes for: kids, teens, adults

Leading morning or evening guided meditations at the garden

Spring is the perfect time to rent an organic garden bed and join the PCG community. As a PCG member,

you will have access to a garden bed for a year, water during the spring, summer, and fall seasons,

community garden tools, and free entry to all of our events during the year.

We encourage members to swap vegetables and share their knowledge with each other. During the

summer, we like to host potlucks at the garden, and are happy to have members bring their friends and

families.

Prescott Community Gardens is located along Prescott's downtown Greenways Trail, just northeast of Sam

Hill Gallery on North Granite St.
