DESCRIPTION The following report summarizes the
programs and activities sponsored by the City's Recreation
Department during the Winter Quarter, January through
March, 1989.
Afterschool Playground Program
Attendance at the two Afterschool Playground continues to grow.
Nielsen has an average daily attendance of "55" participants, and
Murray averages "28" children per day.
Each site offered unique special events for their program
participants Murray participants produced a bi-monthly
newsletter, complete with Fads-N-Fashion columns, comics and
current event listings. Program participants served as editors,
cartoonists and writers for the "No Name Newsletter".
The Nielsen site opened a "restaurant" called "The Kids Cafe".
Program participants developed the menu, decorations and money,
and served as waiters, bus persons, host/hostesses and patrons.
A surprise restaurant critic rated it a four star.
In addition to these events, approximately "25" participants from
both playground sites marched in the Annual St. Patricks Day
Parade. Afterwards, the Recreation Leaders operated a cotton
candy and shamrock toss booths at the community celebration.
The money raised will be spent on an end -of -year party for both
playground sites.
Leisure Enrichment Classes
Winter quarter class participation was up slightly from the same
quarter one year ago. Four hundred -eighty (480) people
participated in the "38" classes offered by the department.
Eight -three percent of the children's classes were conducted.
Only 60% of the teen and adult were held, however this is still
an improvement over last year. Overall, 69% of our classes were
conducted.
In the children's classes, we opened a fourth session of "Time
for Two's" in an attempt to accommodate the number of people
interested in participating. "Bumper Bowl", "Sing -Along Time"
and "Tap & Ballet" continue to be popular.
In the teen and adult classes, the ski trips were a big hit.
We had one ski trip for middle school students and also an
overnight ski trip for high school students. Both were very
successful. The "Calligraphy" and "Country Western Dance"
classes continue to be popular. The "Creative Stitchery" classes
also received a great deal of interest.

Preschool Proqram
The afternoon session of the preschool program seems to have
caught on. There were "17" children enrolled (maximum 20) in
Session II. The morning classes were both full to capacity with
"20" children each. Two field trips were conducted during the
Winter quarter. The first trip was to the Animal Ark Pet Store
where the children were able to see a shark being fed.
The second trip was to the library to listen to stories and check
out books. Additionally the children walked to the mailbox to
mail valentines and had a visit from a Police Officer to discuss
safety.
Senior Center Proqram
The Dublin Senior Center celebrated the New Year and it's six
month anniversary by adding three new classes to the regular
programming. A three week course on "Dealing With Hearing Loss"
was conducted by Audiologist Kenneth Billheimer. A Knit, Crochet
and Needlepoint class from Amador Valley Adult Education began on
January 12, 1989, and programming was extended into the evening
one Friday night per month with an Old -Fashioned Ballroom Dance
class. Established classes and programs were continued and a
drop -in bridge program was added on Friday afternoons. As part
of our arrangement with the Valley Community Health Center, a
health screening was conducted in January. The Health Center
performs health screenings for our Center on a quarterly basis.
Average daily attendance for January 1989 was "46".
In February the Center began publishing a monthly newsletter for
which a mailing list is being generated. In cooperation with
American Red Cross, a monthly blood pressure screening was
established with Red Cross providing the volunteers for this
valuable service. The Dublin Library and Senior Center
established a joint program: Senior Reading Group. The group
opted to meet at the library for monthly book discussions. In an
attempt to increase volunteer participation, contact was made
with the Valley Volunteer Bureau. This contact and resulting
publicity has generated two new Center volunteers. Average daily
attendance for February 1989 was "43".
A seminar on the Medicare Catastrophic Act was presented by
representatives of Waddell & Reed (financial planners) in March.
Thirty-five (35) persons attended. March brought other changes
to the Senior Center. Because of the renovation of Shannon
Community Center the Shannon Senior Dance Group and the Dublin -
San Ramon Seniors began meeting at the Senior Center.
The dancers continue meeting here with a number of their members
joining in the Center's lunch program. The Dublin -San Ramon
Seniors met at the Center for three weeks before moving to the
Sunny Glen Clubhouse. Average daily attendance for March 1989
was "47".
Special Events
Due to the renovation of Shannon Center the Annual St. Patricks
Day Celebration was held on March 18 at Dublin High School.
There were food, game and information booths as well as a wide
variety of entertainment. The celebration took place immediately
following the parade through downtown Dublin. The event was well
attended in spite of foul weather.
The Recreation Department expanded the Easter activities to
include a "Breakfast With the Easter Bunny" in addition to the
traditional hunt. A breakfast was held at the Senior Center on
March 25 with a hunt following at Kolb Park. Due to the heavy
rains the night before the event the hunts were revised so that
each child simply received a lunch -size bag full of Easter
goodies. The events went as well as could be expected under the
circumstances. The children and their parents were generally
pleased.

Teen Program
The Lunch Time Activities Program was introduced at Wells Middle
School in February, and has received a tremendous response from
students and faculty alike. The kick-off activity, The Junk Food
Relay attracted "34" participants and over "175" spectators per
lunch period. Activities are conducted on Mondays, Wednesdays
and Fridays, and are planned one month in advance.
Several major excursions were taken during the Winter quarter.
Thirteen (13) middle school students attended a one -day ski trip
to Boreal in January and "11" high school students attended an
overnight ski trip to Sugar Bowl and Boreal in February.
In addition, eight middle school students participated in a
"Marathon" excursion to Disneyland. The bus left at 2:00a.m. on
Tuesday, March 28 and returned at 2:00a.m. on Wednesday!
Attached are the Registration Analysis and Registration
