SUBJECT: Spring 2008 Quarterly Report
Report prepared by Paul McCreary, Assistant Director of Parks and
Community Services

RECOMMENDATION: Receive Report
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None
DESCRIPTION: The Parks and Community Services Department develops and
implements quality programs that strengthen community image, provide recreational experiences,
encourage healthy lifestyles and preserve the City's heritage. This is accomplished by providing
innovative recreation, social and cultural programs in the areas of playgrounds, preschool, teens, sports,
special events, leisure classes, seniors and aquatics. Following is a summary of programs conducted
during spring 2008.
LEISURE CLASSES
Various leisure classes taught by contracted instructors were offered to serve community members of all
ages. The majority of the classes were taught in six to eight week sessions although some classes are less
than eight weeks and others are offered as a one time workshop. There were 66 leisure classes offered
during spring 2008. Attachment 1 is a detailed report of class registration. These offerings provided a
positive recreational experience to the participants and the opportunity to enhance health and well being.
There were several new classes this spring including: Basic Engineering; Change Your Job, Change Your
Life; Life Science; Lighten Up Nutrition Class; Top Spinning 101; Boxing 101; Pee Wee Playtime; and
Safe Kids. Popular children's classes during the spring included Judo, Pee Wee Playtime, Gymnastics,
Bowling, and Arts Crafts and More for 2's 3's and 4's. Popular adult classes included Pilates, Adventure
Fitness Bootcamp, Hatha Yoga, and Wills Trusts and Estate Planning.
The table on the following page summarizes registration for Leisure Classes. There was a 4% decrease in
registration for spring leisure classes. This may be attributable to the economic downturn and families
having less discretionary income for extra-curricular activities. Staff will continue to focus on providing
a mix of affordable programs to address this issue.

PLAYGROUND PROGRAMS
Af[er School Recreation
After School Recreation is a supervised activity program for children in first through fifth grades. The
program operates on school days at all public elementary schools. Participants engage in a variety of
activities such as indoor and outdoor games, arts and crafts, special events and quiet time for homework.
Every other month Staff coordinates a special event on Mondays at each site called "Monday Fundays".
The After School Recreation program provides youth the opportunity to participate in recreational as well
as educational activities in a safe and supervised environment. This program also enhances the
participant's physical and emotional health. After School Recreation provides youth a fun and healthy
alternative to spending their after school hours in front of the television playing video games or just
"hanging out" in an unsupervised atmosphere.
The number of students served by the program increased to 288 (19%) this spring. This is primarily due
to the addition of Green Elementary and increased registration at Dougherty Elementary. Following is a
summary of registration for the second half of the school year.

Emerald Glen Spring Break Camp
Emerald Glen Spring Break Camp is a full-day camp for children in first through fifth grades that includes
a variety of recreational, social, and educational activities. Activities were based on a spring theme and
included crafts, indoor and outdoor games, sports, excursions, and special projects. Camp was offered

an opportunity to make new friends and participate in a safe and healthy environment. Spring Break
Camp took place Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. There was an extended care option

of the reason for the decrease, which may be attributable to the weakened economy. Following is a

Special Luncheons by 159 (61%); Lunch Program by 102 (6%); and, Trail Trekkers by 62 (31%). Food

Wednesday Night Games (57), Sunday Matinees (29); and the Diabetes Class (27).

Japanese art of paper cutting; a memory jar and a book marker. `Memory Lane' was a graphic display that

Sx Patrick's Day Festiva[
The 2008 Dublin St. Patrick's Day Festival celebrated 25 years this spring. Unfortunately, this year's
inclement weather affected attendance for the Parade, Pancake Breakfast, Festival and Fun Run. This
year the parade was relocated back to its original route on Village Parkway and Amador Valley
Boulevard. This was the second year the festival was at the Civic Center site. Festival components
included arts and crafts vendors, roaming entertainment, Irish dancing and children's carnival attractions.
The weekend began with a Green and White Gala sponsored by the Dublin Sister City Association on
Friday evening at the Dublin Senior Center. On Saturday morning the Alameda County Firefighter's,
Local 55, held a Pancake Breakfast at Station 16, prior to the Lions Club's annual St. Patrick's Parade.

Shamrock SK Fun Run and Walk
• The City sponsored the 10lh Annual Shamrock SK Fun Run and Walk as part of the St. Patrick's Day
activities. There were 1,204 people registered for the event, a 15% decrease over the previous year. This
was primarily attributable to a decrease in onsite registration due to rain earlier in the week and the threat
of rain over the weekend. The assembly area of the race was located in the California Custom Carpet
parking lot on Dublin Boulevard across from the Civic Center. The assembly area included an information
booth, registration booth, t-shirt and goody bag booth and various sponsor booths. Upon completion of
the race, runners were treated to refreshments including sandwiches, pizza, fruit, granola bars, and fruit
beverages. A live band provided post-race entertainment.

the Guide and demonstrations previewing summer sports camps and programs. Dublin Falcons Youth
Football, Dublin United Soccer League and St. Raymond's CYO provided volunteers and were able to
promote their organizations. The Dublin Police Services Crime Prevention Unit, Dublin Cyclery and the
East Bay Bicycle Coalition were also on hand to provide information. The refreshments were donated by
Whole Foods And other local businesses donated prizes and giveaways. The event was well received by
the participants and competitors but the very gusty winds and unfavorable weather conditions hampered
the event and was a factor in the lower than expected turnout. The registration numbers reflect that 127
participants competed in the Junior Olympic and Pitch, Hit and Run competitions. There were about 80
participants visited the other activities at the Family Sports Fest, for a total estimated participation of 207.

The City's fitness programs include Water Aerobics and Lap Swimming/Water Walking. Certified water
exercise instructors provided the aerobics instruction. Water Aerobics classes were offered Monday
through Thursday at noontime and in the evenings. There was an increase in full program registrations
which triggered a decrease in drop-in attendance. Overall daily attendance decreased by 10%.
Lap Swimming / Water Walking was conducted Monday through Thursday at noontime and in the
evenings. Lap swim attendance increased by 39 and tied a five year high mark. This increase can be
attributed to the decision to increase availability of lap swimming / water walking hours by always
offering this program in conjunction with water aerobic classes.
