Potential Alternative Park Names for Discussion <br />Proposed names <br />On January 24, 2014, the Park Naming Committee (Directors Jones and Huffer) met to <br />consider a variety of potential names for the future park. The Committee agreed to share five <br />potential names with the Board of Directors for consideration and discussion. <br />1. Los Arboles Community Park or Arboles Community Park (generic Spanish word for <br />trees and Avenida de los Arboles is a one of the main streets along the park). <br />2. Chaparral Community Park (Chaparral plant community covers the hillsides of many <br />local mountains) <br />3. Chumash Community Park (Native inhabitants of area /first people) <br />4. Red Tail Community Park (Red Tail Hawks are often seen taking advantage of the <br />favorable winds above the park) <br />5. Los Encinos Community Park (Encino is an alternative word for `oak" in Spanish) <br />The committee is also interested in considering the potential to include the Spanish word for <br />trail into the park name, since trails will be the predominant feature and recreational outlet on <br />the planned park. There are several Spanish words for trail with subtle distinctions: <br />6. Los Senderos Community Park (path) <br />7. Las Veredas Community Park (path, lane, trail, sidewalk) <br />8. Camino de Tierra Community Park (dirt, earthen path or road) <br />HILLCREST CENTER 403 WEST HILLCREST DRIVE, THOUSAND OAKS, CALIFORNIA 91360-4223 <br />(805) 495-6471 FAX: (805) 497-3199 E-MAIL: parks@crpd.org <br />
