Receive Report FINANCIAL STATEMENT None DESCRIPTION The following report . summarizes the - programs and activities sponsored by the Citys Recreation Department during the summer quarter, June through August, 1988 . Aquatics On January 1 , 1988 the City of Dublin assumed the aquatic programming responsibility at the Valley Community Swim Center from the Dublin San Ramon Services District. The pool operated from March 21 through September 11 , 1988. The aquatics program was under the supervision of the Recreation Director. An Aquatics Coordinator was hired in late March to plan and organize the aquatics program as well as hire and train seasonal aquatics staff. In addition to the Aquatics Coordinator, there were 15 other seasonal employees who served as cashiers , lifeguards, swim instructors or pool managers. During the spring and summer season, the pool was open a total of "105" days for recreational swimming. Total combined attendance for recreational swim and lap swim was 13 , 573 . Pre-season attendance (May 21 -June 19 ) was 1 ,345; Summer season attendance (June 20-September 5 ) was 11 ,986 ; and post- season attendance (September 5-25 ) was 242 . A brief summary of attendance follows: Month Days Open Total Average/Day May 4 411 103 June 16 3157 197 July 31 5477 177 August 31 3657 118 September 21 871 42 TOTAL 103 13,573 132 A variety of instructional programs were offered at the Dublin Swim Center including youth swim lessons , swim team, adult swim classes and handicapped swim lessons. Instructional programs were scheduled during the week in both the morning and early evening, and also on Saturday mornings. There were approximately "1 , 069" participants in instructional programs during the season. In summary , staff feels that the summer aquatics season was successful. Obviously there are areas for change and/or improvement, but this past season will provide us with a strong foundation on which to build upon. Leisure Enrichment Classes Based on the statistics compiled from the Quarterly Registration Analysis (attached in Exhibit A) , the summer programs were very successful. The number of participants increased in both the youth and teen/adult programs . There were "1 ,361 " people of all ages enrolled in the "53" classes that were conducted by the department during the summer quarter. ----------------------------------------------------------------- ITEM NO. AGENDA STATEMENT - )88 Summer Recreation Repc January 9 , 1989 Page Two The success rate for the children ' s classes was slightly lower ( 80% ) than the 81 % rate for the spring quarter. However, the rate of 80% was a dramatic improvement from 60% one year ago. Tenderfoot Day Camp and Rookie Soccer both had a big increase in participation. Bumper Bowl was another extremely popular class. The teen/adult programs shot up from a 52% success rate in the spring quarter to 75% . Hopefully the increase indicates that the teen/adult programs are finally on track. Country Western Dance and Golf classes continue to bring in large crowds. The Tennis and Calligraphy classes were quite popular during the summer quarter. Playgrounds Children ages 6-12 also had the opportunity to participate in the Summer Playground Program conducted at Arroyo Vista, Murray, Nielsen and Wells schools. Summer playgrounds run for eight consecutive weeks from June 20 to August 12. The program operates from 12-4pm, Monday through .Friday. There were a total of "294" children enrolled at the four sites . The program fee of $5. 00 for the eight-week program included a T-shirt which was a very popular addition. The children participated in games , arts and crafts , field trips , swim days , and special events. Our department joined forces with San Ramon to host a carnival day and a playground olympics. The playground program continues, to gain in popularity and provides a welcome diversion for youths 6-12 during the summer months. Senior Citizens On June 20 , 1988 the Dublin Senior Center opened its doors to the public for the first time. Since then the Center has been open Monday through Friday from 9 :OOam-3 :OOpm. The Center is staffed by one Recreation Coordinator and a host of volunteers. In the five months that the Center has been open, a variety of programs have been introduced which are gaining in popularity on a weekly basis . Classes at the Dublin Senior Center are offered through the Chabot College Quest Program or taught by volunteer or paid instructors . The majority of the classes held at the Senior Center are free of charge. During the first five months of the operation, seven classes were offered. Walk'N Talk and exercise classes are offered twice per week at the Senior Center. Both activities are free of charge and available on a drop-in basis . Bridge, bingo, pinochle and scrabble are all enjoyed at the Dublin Senior Center. Bridge is extremely popular with an average of six tables per week. Bingo is also well received especially as brunch is served prior to bingo. Home cooked meals are offered three days per week at the Center. Lunch is served for $1 . 75 on Tuesday and Thursday and brunch for $1 .00 is served on Friday. Average lunch attendance is "33" per week while brunch averages "16" per week. Menus and meals are prepared by the Recreation Coordinator with the assistance of volunteers . Health services are offered for seniors on a varying schedule. Currently Hicap offers medicare counseling on a monthly basis and the Valley Community Health Center offers quarterly medical screening. Vision screening was offered in September. Additional programs at the Center include weekly movies and nature films , monthly crime prevention presentations from the Dublin Police Department and weekly recreational dance. As stated earlier, volunteers are heavily util--ed at the Center. Currently we have volunteer receptionists four days per week, volunteer cooks , volunteer instructors and miscellaneous volunteers doing a variety of tasks for the Center. In the first 24 weeks of the Center we had a total of "585" volunteer hours. Exhibit C is a compilation of attendance statistics for the Senior Center. Special Events The Recreation Department also co-sponsored the Third Annual Valley Car Showcase in San Ramon on July 23 . Seventy-eight people were registered for this event. The level of participation in this event has continued to drop from year to year. The sponsoring agencies have agreed to host the event once more before making a decision on whether or not to continue the activity. In addition to those activities planned and coordinated by our staff , the department hosted the childrens game area at the Shamrock Potato Festival . The games were extremely popular with the children in attendance at this second annual event. Youth Employment Program The Summer Youth Employment Program entered it ' s third year of operation in Dublin. This year the program experienced a late start and an early finish due to staffing constraints. The program began May 31 and ran through August 26 . The office was located on the Dublin High School campus which favored easy access to Dublin teens. There were a total of "125" youth registered in the program and "64" of the "99" job orders were filled. The program was offered in cooperation with Alameda County Training and Employment Board who provided technical support in the way of publicity. Staff is pleased with the over all success of the programs that were offered to the community. Staff invites comments from the Council and public regarding the summer classes and activities .
