ITEM EXPLANATION:
Saturday, July 10, 2010 kicked off the first of two large events that make up the Carlsbad Health
and Wellness Weekend. The Carlsbad Community Health & Fitness Expo, located at Westfield
Plaza Camino Real, was scheduled from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. With 53 participating vendors,
approximately 2,300 attendees enjoyed a day of fitness, nutrition, and ideas for establishing
healthier life styles. Children and adults alike participated in fitness demonstrations, a fitness
activity circuit, and a virtual fitness tent.
The Health and Wellness Weekend continued on Sunday, July 11, 2010 from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00
p.m. with the 29th annual Carlsbad Triathlon. An estimated 4,000 spectators and participants
came out to enjoy the event taking place along the coast. Over 208 volunteers assisted in
providing safety and excellent customer service during the weekend event.
As part of the Park & Recreation Department's continuing effort to minimize General Fund
expenses, staff seeks support from various businesses. Many businesses sponsored the event
with both cash and in-kind donations for a total of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000).
On July 19, 2010, the Parks & Recreation Commission unanimously accepted the donations and
recommended acceptance by City Council.
The City of Carlsbad Parks & Recreation Department wishes to acknowledge the generosity of all
the sponsors involved. Letters of appreciation have been sent on behalf of the Park & Recreation
Department and the City of Carlsbad.
