The City of Glendale strives to hire the most qualified instructors to teach our Special Interest Classes. Some instructors may have their own businesses which offer ad-ditional classes, sell products or services related to the class. At no time should the instructor promote his/her business, sell products or services unless it and the cost is clearly stated in this brochure and is di-rectly related to and used in the class. If the participant chooses to continue any type of business relationship with the instructor or their related business outside the class, the City of Glendale cannot be held liable for any consequences. Nor will the instructor contact you outside of class for the purpose of soliciting your business unless you have granted the instructor permission to do so.

BE CoURTEoUSWith more people discovering the beauty and benefits of trails, they are getting more crowded. With additional users comes the need for guidelines for wise trail use. Such guidelines can enable all trail users to have the enjoyable experience everyone is looking for.
TRAIL TIPS • Carry and drink water. Remember it’s
the water in your body, not the water in your canteen that keeps you fit.
• Wear appropriate clothing and footwear. • A cellular phone can be a life saver. • Use a walking stick for support and to
fend off threatening wildlife. • Carry a large comb and pliers to
remove cholla cactus segments. • Record your experiences with a
camera. • A signalling mirror can help rescuers
locate you if you are injured.
