AS YOU CAN SEE OUR SENIOR PROGRAMS ARE THERE JUST ROLLING .
I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THEM SADLY TODAY 630 THIS MORNING. RIGHT.
TALKING ABOUT IT WE LOST MISS RIVERS WHO WAS 104. HE LEFT A GOOD LIFE.
I ONLY CAN HOPE THAT I COULD LIVE AS SHARP OF A MIND AS SHE HAD UP UNTIL THE END.
I MEAN SHE WAS JUST AT THE CENTER LAST WEEK SO BUT IT'S STILL SAD TO US BECAUSE WE ALL THOUGHT VERY HIGHLY OF HER IN THE AS YOU SEE WITH DALE THE NUMBERS ZERO LIN BROWN THE NUMBERS AT ZERO THOSE TWO CENTERS ACTUALLY OPEN UP ON MONDAY SEPTEMBER 911 WERE OPENING THOUGH SO THOSE ARE TWO NEW SENIOR PROGRAMS. LIN BROWNS WE CAN'T ADVERTISE IT BECAUSE OF OUR GRANTS STUFF WITH LOCOG AND WE WOULDN'T EXCLUDE ANYBODY OF COURSE BUT LIN BROWN IS GEARED MORE TOWARDS A MEN'S PROGRAM. IT WAS SOMETHING THAT I WENT ADMINISTRATION ABOUT A YEAR AGO AND WANTED TO TRY AND THEY WERE IN SUPPORT OF IT.
WE HAD POOL TABLES, WE HAVE A GAMBLING TABLE. THEY DON'T HAVE TO USE MONEY BUT THEY CAN STILL HAVE FUN AND PLAY CARDS SO IT'S GOING TO BE GEARED TOWARDS LIKE SUPER BOWL SUNDAY THEY CAN DO THEIR GET TOGETHERS, DO WINGS, YOU KNOW, STUFF LIKE THAT AND WHEREAS A LOT OF THE OTHER CENTERS ARE TOWARDS SEWING CRAFTS, JEWELRY MAKING AND WE DIDN'T SEE A LOT OF MEN AT OUR SENIOR PROGRAMS. SO THAT'S WHAT KIND OF JUST CLUED ME TO GO, YOU KNOW, PROBABLY DON'T WANT TO DO THIS SO MAYBE WE SHOULD DO SOME ACTIVITIES SOMEWHERE THAT MEN WANT TO DO. SO IF A WOMAN WANTS TO COME BECAUSE I CAN HONESTLY TELL YOU JUST BEING ME MYSELF MUCH RATHER BE PLAYING POOL AT THE POKER TABLE YOU KNOW THEN SO AND BECAUSE I'M NOT A CRAFTY SO AND I PERSON SO WE WILL DEFINITELY NOT TURN ANYONE BUT IT'S GOING TO BE GEARED MORE TOWARDS YOU KNOW FOOTBALL GAMES AND STUFF LIKE THAT.
THEY'RE GOING TO DO THEIR FIELD TRIPS TO CHARLOTTE AND OR JACKSONVILLE AND TRY TO CATCH NFL GAME, YOU KNOW, AND STUFF LIKE THAT. SO I'M EXCITED ABOUT IT.
TERRY THAT USED TO ASSIST AND VOLUNTEER A LOT WITH THE SENIORS WAS AT THE GARAGE AND I APPROACHED HIM WHEN ALL THIS CAME ABOUT AND SAID HEY YOU WANT TO RUN THE SENIOR PROGRAM AND HE WAS SUPER EXCITED. SO HE'S BEEN OUT FOR THE LAST MONTH RECRUITING.
HE'S BEEN PICKING THEM UP BRINGING THEM TO BARTON WELL SIGNING THEM UP.
HE'S GOT THOSE FOUR AND HE'S GOT MORE. HE SAYS THAT IT'LL BE THERE ON MONDAY SO WE'RE EXCITED TO SEE HOW IT GOES. DO WE HAVE ANY MEN YOU KNOW, OTHER CENTERS WE DO. WE HAVE LIKE ONE, MAYBE TWO THAT THEY ONLY GO ON LIKE BINGO DAYS ONE OR TWO AT EACH CENTER IS A MAX SOME NINE YOU KNOW. SO WE'RE HOPING THAT KNOW AND WE DO PROVIDE THE TRANSPORTATION SO WE'RE HOPING THAT YOU KNOW THAT WE CAN GET MORE YOU KNOW MEN INVOLVED IT AND HAVE THEM INSTEAD OF SITTING AT HOME HAVE COME OUT AND JOIN US MR. YEAGER SHE'S ALMOST AN UNCREDITED WELCOME TO A COUPLE OF HOURS
[00:10:04]
AND STAY ALL EXCITED ABOUT THIS BECAUSE STATEWIDE I USED TO BE A TEACHING DIRECTOR FOR THE REGION STATEWIDE MEN ARE SO UNDER SERVED AND UNDER REPRESENTATIVE OF HUNDREDS AND UNDER REPRESENTED THAT THEY'RE EXCITED ABOUT THIS MODEL OF LET'S CHANGE THIS INFORMATION ON THE TV THEY WANT THAT GOOD GOOD YEAH IT WE'RE EXCITED I CAN'T WAIT I LOVE THE SENIORS. I MEAN IT LOOKS TO ME AND IN A LOT OF TIMES I THINK IT'S GOOD TO SEE NUMBERS FROM PREVIOUS TIMES. YEAH BECAUSE IT LOOKS HERE LIKE BLUFFTON IS UP NINE BOOKER T'S FLAT BURTON WELLS IS UP 21 I DON'T KNOW WHAT SENATOR INACTIVE MR. EVERS WAS AT BLUFFTON AND ACTIVE WAS YOU KNOW THEY COME EVERY DAY BUT I WILL TELL YOU PORT ROYAL CENTER STARTED AS OUR SLOWEST CENTER LIKE WE WORRIED FOR WHILE HOW LONG IT WAS GOING TO STAY AFLOAT AND THAT IS THE MOST ACTIVE CENTER WITH THE MOST SENIORS THAT SHOW UP EVERY SINGLE DAY. OKAY SO SO 43 IS NOT THE TOTAL THAT'S A GENERAL ATTENDANCE DAILY GENERAL ATTENDANCE DAILY WELL SO WITH ALL OF THEM THE WAY THAT LOCOG WORKS IS YOU HAVE TO BE AT 25 OR ABOVE TO QUALIFY FOR THEIR PROGRAMING.SO GENERAL ATTENDANCE YOU KNOW AT PORT ROYAL AS WELL OVER 25 AT SAINT HELENA WE'RE AT 49 WE LOST ONE. WE'VE WE'VE HAD PEOPLE THAT STILL WANTED TO JOIN AND WE'VE HAD TO TELL THEM WE DON'T HAVE THE RING YOU KNOW SO ONE OF THE THINGS THAT HANK AND I HAVE TALKED ABOUT AND WORK TOWARDS IS THE POSSIBILITY THE FUTURE OF BUILDING SOMETHING OUT IN THE ST HELENA AREA THAT WOULD HAVE A LARGER ROOM FOR SENIORS THAT MAYBE WE COULD GET MORE OF THEM TOGETHER AND MORE SO AND WHAT FACILITY IS THAT IN NOW THE ST HELENA IS IN WE RENT AT NEXT TO THE ST HELENA LIBRARY WE RENT THAT FACILITY BUT THEN YOU'VE ALSO GOT SCOTT CENTER THAT'S OUT IN SAINT HELENA THAT'S ACTIVE TOO. AND WHAT WHAT AT LYNN BROWN WHAT WHERE ARE THEY USING ONE OF THE ROOMS THERE OR LYNN BROWN.
SO YOU'LL SEE WHEN GO TO THE PROJECT UPDATE WE REMODELED THE BACK PORTION OF IT AND REMODELED THE AND STUFF AND SO WE'VE GOT A LARGER ROOM BACK THERE WITH A GAME ROOM OF IT AND A LARGE KITCHEN THAT WILL BE USED IN AT LEM ROOM. WOW THAT'S GREAT.
IT LOOKS LIKE THIS HAS BEEN SUCCESSFUL. SUCCESSFUL? DO ANYBODY HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ABOUT THE SENIOR SERVANT? ALL RIGHT. SO OUR REGISTRATION NUMBERS I KIND OF WENT BACK SO YOU'RE GOING TO BECAUSE WE WERE SMART SO I'VE GOT SPRING, SUMMER, FALL WE'RE GOING TO GO UP.
OKAY. SO IN THE SPRING OUR NUMBERS WE HAD BASEBALL UP TO 98 WHICH WERE UP 16 FLAG FOOTBALL WAS 95 DOWN NINE SOCCER WAS 552 UP 80 ,SOFTBALL WAS 48 DOWN 16 AND TENNIS WAS 24 UP 20. SO WE WENT FROM FOUR KIDS 24 SO WE DID WELL ON THAT ONE.
BLUFFTON BASEBALL WAS AT 489 WE WERE DOWN 52 FLAG FOOTBALL 346 UP 50 LACROSSE WAS 67 WE WERE DOWN 12. SOCCER WAS 1076 WE WERE UP 182 AND SOFTBALL ALL WE WERE 203 UP 27. WHY DO YOU THINK BASEBALL DOWN, TRAVEL DOWN? YEAH I MEAN IT VARIES. YOU KNOW, YOU COULD GO YOU KNOW, WITH THAT THAT LITTLE BIT THAT WAS DOWN IT WASN'T REALLY THAT MUCH TO BE DOWN YOU KNOW ARE YOU SEE SOCCER WAS UP THAT MUCH SO IT COULD HAVE SIMPLY BEEN NOTHING MORE THAN THE LITTLE KIDS DECIDED THEY WANTED TO CHANGE DISPERSION. YEAH RIGHT YEAH THAT'S THAT'S ALWAYS LOOKING AT THE FACT THAT THESE ALL AT THE SAME SAME SEASON SO IT'S POSSIBLE THAT SOME OF THE KIDS ASSIGNED TO PLAY. YES WELL GINNY I'M JUST LOOKING AT YOU RIGHT NOW.
I JUST REALIZED THIS WAS RIGHT ON MY SCREEN RIGHT HERE. WOW.
I'M UP HERE LOOKING FANTASTIC. THANK YOU FOR THEIR GUIDANCE. ALL RIGHT.
AND I MIGHT EVEN TAKE THESE OFF . ALL RIGHT.
SO THEN REGISTRATION FOR SUMMER SPORTS B FOR BASKETBALL 148 WAS DOWN 12 AND THEN BLUFFTON BASKETBALL FOR 57 WAS UP 74. OKAY. AND THAT OF COURSE A LOT HAS TO DO WITH VACATIONS REGISTRATION NUMBERS FOR FALL PIVOT BASEBALL 198 WAS UP 73 CHEER 44 WAS UP
[00:15:04]
11 FLAG FOOTBALL AT 100 WAS UP FIVE SOCCER FOR 70 WAS UP 53 WITH 41 ON THE WAIT LIST AND SOFTBALL I LEFT IT OUT JUST NOTICED THAT AND I DON'T HAVE IT MEMORIZED.EVERYTHING ELSE WAS LOOKING PRETTY GOOD. I THINK.
NO YOU BLUFFTON BASEBALL 336 WAS UP 39 CHEER AT 48 WAS DOWN FIVE FLAG FOOTBALL TO 83 ONE SOCCER NOW IN 72 UP 152 AND SOFTBALL 165 UP 16 YOUTH WINNER REGISTRATION JUST BEGAN SEPTEMBER THE FIRST AND IT'S ROLLING ALL THOSE NUMBERS LIKE EVEN THE BLUFFTON I THINK IT WAS 498 FOR THE SPRING I MEAN THAT'S A PRETTY THAT'S A PRETTY ROBUST FALL PROGRAM EVERYTHING WAS UP. I MEAN ARE WE SEEING ARE WE SEEING IT ACROSS ALL AGE GROUPS OR IS IT IS IT JUST I MEAN IS IS IS THERE A LOT OF YOUNGER KIDS OR IS IT JUST PRETTY MUCH YOU SEE MORE OF THE YOUNGER YOU KNOW, OF COURSE WHEN IT HITS AN 11 YEAR OLD IT BUT THAT'S JUST TYPICAL FOR ALMOST ANY SPORT I'VE BEEN IN A BIG INCREASE IN A PUPIL AREA.
YEAH, YES, YES. I'M LIKE WOW. YES, YES.
SO DO YOU HAVE FEEL LIKE THE STAFF OVER THERE HAS DONE AN AMAZING JOB? DO HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MANY CHILDREN WE'VE SERVED THIS YEAR? I'D HAVE TO ADD THOSE PRETTY IT'S IT'S PRETTY YEAH. I MEAN LIKE UNIQUE INDIVIDUALS THAT MAYBE ONCE PLAYED MULTIPLE SPORTS WELL YEAH. I MEAN YEAH I GUESS I GUESS I WOULD I WOULD THINK OF IT MORE AS IF SOMEBODY PLAYED THREE SPORTS I WOULD COUNT THEM NOW COUNT THEM THREE TIMES. YEAH I'M JUST YOU KNOW BECAUSE THEY'RE DOING DIFFERENT PROGRAMS SO GOOD. MS. LOPER ISN'T IT TRUE THIS IS THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR YOU HAD 16 AND UNDER FOUR BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T HAVE THAT LAST YEAR MY RIGHT DIDN'T HAVE ONE.
YOU HAD 16 YOU HAVE A 13 TO 16 YEAR OLD SOFTBALL IN THE FALL OF THIS YEAR.
I MEAN YOU RIGHT? YEAH. AND YOU DIDN'T HAVE THAT LAST YEAR SO I MEAN THERE'S A GREAT INCREASE IN THE STAFF. LIKE I SAID, THE STAFF OVER THERE HAS DONE VERY WELL. WELL AND I ALSO THINK ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE NEED TO TRY TO KEEP DOING IS KEEP THE OLDER KIDS ENGAGED IN THIS VERSUS BECAUSE A LOT OF TIMES, YOU KNOW, THEY GET TO BE 1314, THEY GET OUT OF SPORTS, THEY START THINGS THAT PROBABLY THEY SHOULDN'T BE DOING AREN'T AS SOLID. SO YOU KNOW, THE MORE THAT WE CAN DO TO KEEP PROGRAMING WITH TEENAGERS AND PEOPLE GETTING FROM THAT MIDDLE SCHOOL TO HIGH SCHOOL, I THINK THAT'S A MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE. SO ADULT SPRING SPORTS THE SPRING BLUFFTON WE HAD SOFTBALL HAD 16 TEAMS WE WERE DOWN TEAMS ALL TOGETHER BUT WITH THE BRONZE TEAM BRONZE LEAGUE WE HAD 16 TEAMS SILVER TEN TEAMS GOLD FIVE TEAMS COED THREE IN THE SENIOR SEVEN SUMMER SPORTS VIEW EFFORT BASEBALL WE HAD SEVEN TEAMS THE SOFTBALL WE HAD TEAMS THAT WAS UP THREE TEAMS IN WITH THE BEFORE SOFTBALL AND THE CHANGE IN THAT WAS WE DECIDED TO GO AWAY FROM THE CHURCH LEAGUE. IT'S ALWAYS BEEN CATEGORIZED AS THE CHURCH LEAGUE SO WE DECIDED JUST TO MAKE IT A FLAT COED LEAGUE THAT ANYBODY COULD, YOU KNOW, PUT IN TEAMS, PLAY AND THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO BE A MEMBER OF A CHURCH.
SOME OF THE CHURCH IS STILL THEIR TEAMS IN AND THAT WAS FUN YOU KNOW BUT WE JUST KIND OF OPENED UP TO MORE SINCE WE DIDN'T HAVE SOFTBALL OFFERED OVER HERE, YOU KNOW, ANY OTHER TIME A YEAR. SO I THINK BY DOING THAT IT IT WAS SUCCESSFUL WITH ADD AND THE THREE TEAMS DO IT WITH A BASEBALL TEAMS WHERE THEY FROM ALL DIFFERENT LIKE WERE BLUFFTON TEAMS THAT CAME OVER TO OR WAS IT JUST BASEBALL DOESN'T PARTICULARLY HAVE BLUFFTON TEAMS BUT THEY DO HAVE BLUFFTON PLAYERS THAT ARE COMING YES THEY BRING THEIR OWN TEAM RIGHT THEY THEY THAT WE THEY SIT DOWN AND THE TEAMS ADDRESS THE TEAMS OKAY I THOUGHT THAT THEY ARE AND IF SOMEONE WANTS TO PLAY THEY THEY WILL GET THEY JUST SIGN UP OKAY. YEAH THE BLUFFTON WE KICKBALL WAS AT 100 UP FOR VOLLEYBALL SHANE CAME TO ME AND SAID HEY I WANT TO TRY SOMETHING I TO TRY OUTDOOR IN THE SAND VOLLEYBALL SINCE WE HAVE THOSE VOLLEYBALL COURTS AT BLUFFTON CENTER HE DID HE ENDED UP WITH FOUR TEAMS AND IT WAS A SUCCESSFUL LEAGUE SO IT SOMETHING NEW SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO TRY YOU KNOW THEY
[00:20:02]
PLAY BEACH VOLLEYBALL ALL THE TIME SO IT GAVE THEM THAT ADVANTAGE TO BE ABLE TO PRACTICE DO THAT AND HE WAS SUCCESSFUL WITH THAT WITH THE FOUR TEAMS SO HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE ON AN OUTDOOR VOLLEYBALL TEAM? HE AVERAGED 20 SO THERE ARE FIVE FIVE PEOPLE PER TEAM CATCH SO IT'S NOT TWO MAN VOLLEYBALL IT'S FULL.NO IT WAS FULL COURT OF ALL TEAMS. YEAH YEAH GREG SPORTS BALL BLUFFTON ADULTS SOFTBALL WE HAD GOLD SIX TEAMS SILVER 11 BRONZE 16 COED FIVE, SENIORS FIVE AND THEN THE VOLLEYBALL WE THE SEVEN AND THAT WAS THIS IS THE INDOOR WE MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS DIDN'T WE LAST YEAR IN TERMS OF GAME TIMES OR CERTAIN THINGS FOR SOFTBALL WAS THAT REFFING THAT WE DIDN'T WE MAKE SOME ADJUSTMENTS WITH WITH ADULTS FROM WE'VE AVERAGE YOU KNOW WE DO OUR OUR COACHES MEETING AND YOU KNOW TAKE THEIR SUGGESTIONS SO MOST OF THE TIME YOU KNOW THEY START THEIR GAMES WE DON'T AT 530 ANYMORE WE STARTED BETWEEN SIX AND 630 OKAY AND THIS ALL BEING HELD IN IN BLUFFTON AND BLUFFTON FEELS THE FALL IS BOSTON THE SPRING.
SO TOURNAMENTS STATE TOURNAMENT WE HOSTED THE STATE TOURNAMENT THIS YEAR FOR THE DIXIE JUNIOR BOYS AND DIXIE BOYS IT'S PROBABLY GOING TO BE THE WORST SLIDESHOW I THINK I'VE EVER HAD TO DEAL WITH DURING THE TOURNAMENT WE HAD QUITE A FEW RAIN OUTS IT'S A BRUTAL SO AS YOU CAN SEE THE STAFF OUT THERE ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE ALL OF US WERE PUTTING ON BOOTS AND GOING TO WORK TRYING TO GET THESE GAMES AND SADLY WE HAD OUR WORST RAIN OUT AND HAD MARNI WHO'S WORKED FOR THE COUNTY FOR 25 YEARS AND HE WAS MURDERED ON HIS WAY HOME THAT NIGHT. SO HAD ALREADY TOLD ME THAT I TRIED TO GET HIM TO GO HOME EARLY BECAUSE HE'D BEEN THERE ALL DAY AND HE SAID NO I'M GOING TO HAND MY RETIREMENT PAPERWORK AFTER THIS. THIS IS GOING TO BE MY LAST TOURNAMENT.
SO WE WERE ALL QUITE DEVASTED, WAITED THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THIS TOURNAMENT TO SAY THE LEAST MONEY WAS AN AMAZING THING AND BOY AND HE KNEW HIS FIELDS.
THE ONE THING THAT WE DID DO IS AND DIDN'T PUT THE PICTURES UP HERE BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE IT ON THE AGENDA BUT WE DID A CANDLELIGHT VIGIL THE FOLLOWING WEEK AT BARTON WELLS BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE MONEY WORK FOR SO MANY YEARS AND WE GOT PERMISSION AND NAME FIELD TO AFTER HIM AT BARTON WELLS SO GOOD TOURNAMENTS THE BLUFFTON EIGHT YOU GIRLS WON THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP WAS SCARP THIS FORTUNATELY YOU KNOW WELL UNFORTUNATELY A FEW YEARS AGO WE BAILED OUT OF DIXIE SOFTBALL BECAUSE OF SOME ISSUES THAT WE HAD WITH THE COMMISSIONER OF DIXIE SOFTBALL AND SOME OF THE EMAILS AND THINGS WAS GOING AROUND.
WE SIT THIS SCOUT BOARD AND WE DECIDED THAT WE WERE GOING TO FORM A SOFTBALL LEAGUE THROUGHOUT THE STATE FOR THE GIRLS TO HAVE SOMETHING DO THAT WE'RE DEALING WITH THE ISSUE WE DID THIS WAS THE THIRD YEAR OF IT. IT'S BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL BUT ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THE GIRLS YOU KNOW, COMPLAIN ABOUT IS WHY DON'T WE GET TO GO TO THE WORLD SERIES? SO FORTUNATELY DIXIE YOUTH BASEBALL IS GOING TO START DIXIE YOUTH SOFTBALL THIS YEAR COMING UP. SO THEY'RE DOING AT A DIFFERENT TIME THAT'S GAP SO THE GIRLS FORTUNATELY WILL BE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO PLAY GAP THEY CAN WIN THE STATE BUT THEY CAN ALSO PLAY THE STATE FOR THE DIXIE YOUTH SOFTBALL AND THEN GO ON TO A WORLD SERIES IF IT WORKS OUT SO THEY'LL COMPETE IN AND AN ADDITIONAL ENTRY TO THE TOURNAMENT FOR DIXIE SO THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE PART OF THAT REGULAR SEASON SO YOU JUST SEND THE STAGE AND TO THE DIXIE YOUTH ONE RIGHT YEAH YEAH THE WE HAD THE FIRE FOR COUNTY DIXIE JUNIOR BOYS WHICH WAS COMBINED LEAGUE WE'RE STILL COMBINING OUR LEAGUES IN THAT AGE GROUP WITH BLUFFTON BEAUFORT AND HILTON HEAD THEY ENDED WINNING THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP IN THE JUNIOR BOYS AND WENT ON TO THE WORLD SERIES IN ALABAMA.
UNFORTUNATELY THEY LOST YOU KNOW THEY WEREN'T REPRESENTED WELL, I GOT A CALL FROM RUSTY
[00:25:01]
ARMSTRONG THAT WAS OVER TOURNAMENT AND SAID THAT THEY WERE A CLASS ACT AND THEY WERE VERY HAPPY TO HAVE THEM THERE THE DIXIE BOYS WON THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP AS WELL AND ON TO PLAY IN SOUTH HILLS, VIRGINIA THEY COMPETED AND DID VERY WELL .THEY ENDED UP I THINK IT WAS TWO DAYS BEFORE THE TOURNAMENT WAS OVER WITH BEFORE THEY GOT ELIMINATED SO THEY DID VERY, VERY WELL. I'M HOPING THAT THE JUNIOR BOYS WILL KEEP TOGETHER AS WERE HOST AND NEXT YEAR WILL BE HOST IN THE WORLD SERIES AND POSSIBLY THE STATE BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE ANYBODY SO FAR THAT HAS STEPPED UP SO MY STAFF MAY END UP PUTTING ME IN THE GROUND SOMEWHERE BY THE TIME IT'S OVER WITH BUT MAY END UP HAVING TWO HUGE TOURNAMENTS NEXT YEAR IN. THESE THESE ARE ALSO COMPOUNDS THAT HAVE HILTON HILTON HEAD BLUFFTON AND YEAH YEAH SUMMER CAMP SO CAMP WE ENDED UP HAVING SUMMER CAMP AT SIX SITES THIS YEAR AND I BROKE IT DOWN SO THE WAY THAT WE DID IT AND REGISTERED IT IS THE COUNTY EMPLOYEES GOT TO SIGN UP FIRST THEN WE OPENED IT UP TO THE MUNICIPALITIES AND THEN WE OPENED IT UP TO THE PUBLIC AND DID A LOTTERY. AS YOU CAN SEE I BROKE IT DOWN.
BLUFFTON WE HAD 28 COUNTY KIDS, THREE MUNICIPALITIES AND 21 PUBLIC WITH 114 ON THE WAITLIST . BROOMFIELD WE HAD ZERO COUNTY, ZERO MUNICIPALITY AND 27 PUBLIC WAS ONE ON THE WAIT LIST AND THAT ONE CAME IN LIGHT. BURTON WELLS WE HAD 18 COUNTY ZERO MUNICIPALITY AND 24 PUBLIC WITH 50 THING THIS IS EIGHT ON THE WAIT LIST.
GLORIA POTTS WAS AT ZERO COUNTY ZERO MUNICIPALITY 27 PUBLIC WITH NONE ON THE WAIT LIST LYNNE BROWN HAD 28 COUNTY TO MUNICIPALITY AND 21 PUBLIC WITH 13 ON THE WAIT LIST AND PORT ROYAL WAS 19 COUNTY ZERO MUNICIPALITY 18 PUBLIC AND 23 ON THE WAITLIST.
IT WAS A VERY SUCCESSFUL SUMMER. THE ONE THING THAT WE LEARNED THROUGH THE CAMP IS NEXT YEAR WE'RE GOING TO TAKE THE AGE GROUP DOWN TO TEN AND UNDER OUR BIGGEST WERE 11 TO 13 IT JUST WITH THE WAY A LOT OF OUR CENTERS SET UP HAVING ONE BIG CENTER AND FOUR AND FIVE YEAR OLDS WITH 13 JUST IS NOT THE WAY TO GO SO WE'RE GOING TO DO THIS WE'RE GOING TO DISCONTINUE SUMMER CAMP FOR THE 11 TO 13 YEAR OLDS EUROS.
YEAH. WHAT WILL THEIR ALTERNATIVE BE HONESTLY? WE HAD A LOT OF THEM A LOT OF THE THE PARENTS THAT YOU KNOW THE PARENTS WE'D CALL TO COME GET THE KIDS BECAUSE THEY WERE OUT AND THEY WERE LIKE OH WELL THEY CAN STAY HOME.
SO MOST OF THEM WE FOUND WERE STAY AT HOME ANYWAY WITH THE NUMBER OF KIDS THAT WE DID HAVE ON THE WAIT LIST TO BE ABLE TO OPEN IT UP TO THE YOUNGER THAT DON'T HAVE THE OPTION STAY HOME I THINK IS GOING TO BE BETTER FOR KIDS IN IN AND WE'VE GOT A WAIT HOW IS THE WAITLIST DETERMINED I MEAN DOES EACH DOES EACH CENTER HAVE A CAPACITY FOR A CERTAIN NUMBER OF PEOPLE DUE TO THE CENTER OR DUE TO THE NUMBER OR NUMBER? OF COURSE WE HAD IT WE HAD A SET CAPACITY AT EACH CENTER AND WHAT IT CAN HOLD NOW THE COUNSELORS WENT IN THE PROBLEM THE PROBLEM IS THE CENTER'S OKAY AND WHAT THEY CAN ALL SO YOU'LL JUST READ THAT WE WILL PROBABLY HAVE THE SAME AMOUNT OF PEOPLE IT'S JUST I MEAN IF WE HAVE THERE'S A LOT THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE ON WAITLIST THERE SO YEAH THE IS SO HOLY TRINITY HAS ASKED FOR PARKS AND REC BOARD TO GIVE THEM A REDUCED RATE A FREE RATE THE CURRENT RATE RIGHT NOW THEY WOULD LIKE TO HAVE TWO COURTS AT THE NEW DOWNTOWN TENNIS FACILITY THEY WOULD LIKE TO HAVE TWO COURTS FOUR DAYS A WEEK AND DO IT FOR 14 WEEKS. SO I PUT THE PRICES UP THERE WHAT IT WOULD BE NOW TWO COURTS AT $50 WHICH WOULD BE $100 A DAY FOUR DAYS, YOU KNOW, 400 A WEEK AND FOR THE 14 WEEKS IT WOULD BE 5600. THERE WOULD DEPEND NOW THEY
[00:30:02]
WOULD THAT'S WHAT OUR FEES ARE SO HOLY TRINITY IS A PRIVATE SCHOOL CORRECT CAN AND I NOTICE THAT IN JANIE FOR FOR YOUR EDIFICATION AS WELL ONE OF THE FUNCTIONS OF THIS BODY IS TO REVIEW AND ADJUST AS WE DEEM NECESSARY ANNUALLY THE FACILITY RENTAL FEES THOSE THOSE ARE UNDER OUR PURVIEW AND SO THIS IS TENNIS TENNIS COURTS IF RESERVED UP TO 3 HOURS $50 IN ADDITIONAL FEE FOR OUR TEN AND YOU'RE SAYING THEY WANT 2 HOURS A DAY AND WE DO HAVE SOME PRICING HERE FOR SCHOOLS, BASEBALL, DIAMONDS BUT WE'VE NEVER REALLY BEEN REQUESTED FOR TENNIS COURTS BEFORE. SO IS THIS A NEW SCHOOL OR IS THIS BEEN AROUND FOR A WHILE? I WILL LEAVE A FEW UP ON THERE. THAT'S WHAT THE PUBLIC SCHOOL UH PRIVATE AND CHARTER SCHOOLS ARE. YEAH, I THINK MOST OF THEM SO I'M NOT I MEAN WE'VE NEVER HAD A REQUEST SINCE I'VE BEEN HERE FOR FOR A PRIVATE OR CHARTER SCHOOL REQUEST FOR TENNIS.WHAT WAS DO WE DISCOUNT FOR THE BASEBALL FOR PRIVATE WE DON'T WE DON'T DISCOUNT WE JUST GIVE THEM A PRICE FOR FIVE TIMES A WEEK, 1.5 HOURS A DAY FOR PRACTICE PER MONTH.
SO THAT'S WHY I'M WONDERING WHAT THEY WHAT WHAT DOES THAT OUT TO? IS IT IT'S THREE IT'S $300. IT LOOKS $300. BUT AGAIN, I BELIEVE JUST AS WITH EVERYTHING ELSE THE STAFF LOOKS AT WHAT'S AVAILABLE BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY OUR COME FIRST SO THE COURTS AVAILABLE SHANNON HOW MANY HOW MANY YOU KNOW THEY'RE THEY'RE OPEN FOR YOU KNOW THAT WAS OUR THOSE COURTS MOST FUSSED ABOUT COURTS WHEN THEY WERE DOWN YOU KNOW SO THEY'VE GOT THEIR THEY FLUCTUATE YOU IN THE USE OF COURSE WHEN IT'S 104 DEGREES OUT NOT EVERYBODY'S OUT PLAYING TENNIS BUT AS THE YOU KNOW SEASONS YOU GET MORE PEOPLE THAT GO OUT AND WANT TO PLAY SO THEY'RE OPEN COURTS. THERE ARE SEVEN OF THEM SO AND THEY'RE PROBABLY WHAT 4 TO 6 THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE TRYING TO USE IT 3 TO 5, 3 TO 5 WHICH PROBABLY DOESN'T GET AS MUCH USE. I'M GUESSING THAT DURING THAT TIME YEAH THEY'RE REALLY YEAH HEATHER HEATHER'S GOING TO BE ON WITH THEM ON THEIR MORNING ONE COURT WITH THE TWO COURTS ON IT OR TWO WITH THE FOUR. OKAY SO JUST THE TWO OF SO THAT ONE WE HAVE AND WE HAVE TOTAL OF SEVEN COURTS THERE CORRECT. SO THAT WOULD LEAVE FIVE MY MY GENERAL FEELING BORED AND WE CAN DISCUSS THIS IS THAT PRIVATE AND CHARTER SCHOOLS SCHOOLS THAT'S WHY WE HAVE FEES YOU KNOW THEY TYPICALLY PAY FOR THESE THINGS SO I MEAN OBVIOUSLY I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE HOLY TRINITY CAMPUS AND WHETHER OR NOT THEY CAN BUILD THEIR OWN TENNIS THERE. I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THAT BUT OBVIOUSLY THEY ARE THEY GOING TO HAVE TENNIS COURTS IN THE FUTURE? IS THIS GOING TO BE SOMETHING JUST THE FIRST YEAR OF HAVING THE TENNIS PROGRAM? YEAH, THIS IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS AND I TELL ALL OF THEM BRIDGES HOLY TRINITY, ALL OF THEM WE'RE STARTING PROGRAMS WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE FACILITIES BECAUSE THEY THEY SIGN THESE KIDS UP AND THEY SAY WELL WE NEED SOMEWHERE TO GO. YOU KNOW, AND IT'S THIS IS YEAH AND THIS IS A SITUATION THAT YES WE WOULD PROBABLY HAVE THE TWO COURTS BUT YOU KNOW WHEN IT COMES TO FIELDS IT'S NOT ALWAYS THE SAME SITUATION. YOU KNOW, I ALSO UNDERSTAND THEY'RE TRYING TO BUILD THEIR SCHOOLS AND BUILD THEIR PROGRAMS AND STUFF LIKE THAT. YOU KNOW, I DIDN'T TALK DOWN ONE OF THE THINGS THAT JUST CAME TO MY MIND IS YOU KNOW, I KNOW THAT WHEN WE DISCOUNTED HOLY TRINITY FOR THE BASEBALL WE DID SET THEM A REDUCED RATE THE BASEBALL FOR THEIR GAMES AND I BELIEVE THAT THE BOARD WENT DOWN TO INSTEAD OF $500 FOR THE SPECIAL EVENT FEE THEY
[00:35:08]
WENT DOWN TO 300 BECAUSE THEY CHARGE TO GET INTO THEIR GAMES .THEY CHARGE FOR CONCESSIONS, THEY CHARGE TO GET INTO THEIR GAMES AND WHEN HE CAME BACK WITH THE TENNIS THAT WAS THE ONE THING THAT HE BROUGHT UP AND SAID, YOU KNOW, YOU GIVE YOU GIVE A DISCOUNT US FOR THE USE OF OUR GAMES. THEY'VE RENTED DALE TO HOLD THEIR BASEBALL GAMES AND AT THE TIME YOU GUYS AS A BOARD SAID YOU KNOW WE'RE NOT GIVING IT TO HIM FOR FREE BECAUSE THEY'RE CHARGING YOU KNOW, SO IT'S STILL CONSIDERED A SPECIAL EVENT. BUT YOU DID TAKE THE FEE DOWN FROM 500 TO 300.
YEAH I, I PERSONALLY FEEL LIKE THE COUNTY HAS A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF RESOURCE IN THOSE RESOURCES YOU KNOW ARE SPREAD ACROSS DIFFERENT WHETHER IT BE TENNIS WHETHER IT BE BASKETBALL WHETHER I MEAN SO THE AVAILABILITY THAT WE HAVE FOR EACH ACTIVITY CAN VARY YEAR TO YEAR SIGNIFICANTLY AND I THINK WE TO YOU KNOW LOOK OUT FOR OUR TAXPAYERS FIRST AND I WOULD AGREE IN GENERAL THAT SCHOOLS SHOULD HAVE THE ABILITY TO BUILD THEIR OWN FACILITIES BUT SOMETIMES THAT MAY NOT BE IN THERE YOU KNOW, THAT MAY BE A STAGE PLAN AND MAYBE WE CAN HELP THEM OUT FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. BUT THERE IS OBVIOUSLY COST TO USE. OF COURSE THERE'S A WEAR AND TEAR YOU KNOW I'M IN IS IS THIS A VARSITY SPORT THAT THEY'RE DOING FOR PRACTICE IN ARE THEY HAVING ARE THEY HAVING MEETS THEIR THEIR TENNIS MEET WELL NO ANYTHING USUALLY WHAT THEY WHAT THEY TYPICALLY DO WHEN THEY START THE PROGRAMS IS THEY DO THE PRACTICES THEN THEY THEY DO ALL AWAY MEETS YOU KNOW YES SIR WHEN WE SIT THIS FEE IS IT JUST BETWEEN US AND THAT PARTICULAR ENTITY AND OR DO THEY AND THAT'S JUST AN BETWEEN US AND THEM BECAUSE IF JOHN PAUL SAYS HEY WE WANT USE THIS IS A PRECEDENT SETTING YES WELL I GET YEAH SO WE SAID THESE FEE WE SET THESE FEES FOR EVERYONE OKAY AND THEN IF SOMEONE WANTS TO COME IF THEY'RE WILLING TO PAY THE FEE THEN AND WE END AND WE HAVE THE AVAILABLE CITY THEN WE WILL RENT IT TO THEM UNDER A CONTRACT FOR THAT PERIOD OF TIME. HOW I UNDERSTAND THIS IS COMING TO IS THEY KNOW WHAT THE FEE IS AND THEY WANT TO PAY A LESSER FEE OR NO FEE FOR THAT. SO I WOULD AGREE WITH YOU THAT THERE COULD BE A PRECEDENT SET AT LEAST AS IT PERTAINS TO TENNIS AT THIS POINT IN TIME.
AND THE REASON I SAID THE OTHER IS I DON'T I THINK WE I THINK WE WE SET WE CAN'T SET PRECEDENT BUT WE DON'T NECESSARILY SET IT BECAUSE RESOURCES THE AVAILABILITY AND THE ALLOCATION CHANGE IS IT'S A DYNAMIC SITUATION IS DIFFERENT YEAH YOU THINK HE CAN'T USE THAT JUSTIFICATION OR YOU GIVE US A DISCOUNT THERE WAS A DISCOUNT ON BASEBALL THAT WAS A DIFFERENT SITUATION. YEAH YOU KNOW YOU CAN'T INJECT THAT INTO THE INTO THE EQUATION. RIGHT. YOU KNOW SO I MEAN I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT I MEAN OBVIOUSLY WE'VE HAD A RELATIONSHIP WITH HOLY TRINITY FOR BASEBALL, THE DELL FIELD THAT WE PROVIDED THAT DISCOUNT PRIOR BUT DO WE KNOW IS IT ARE DO WE KNOW ABOUT THE USE OF THE TENNIS COURTS AT THIS TIME OF THE DAY? IS IT WELL AND I'M GOING TO SAY NO BECAUSE. TEN TENNIS EMPLOYEES UP THERE MONITORING ALL THE TIME.
I DO HAVE AN EMPLOYEE JUST GETTING YEAH YEAH, I DO HAVE AN EMPLOYEE BUT REMEMBER WE JUST REOPENED THESE TENNIS COURT. YEAH, THIS IS SO I DON'T KNOW WITH THEM BEING NEW RIGHT YOU KNOW HOW WELL THEY'RE GOING TO GET USED AND WHAT'S THE TIME FRAME THAT THEY'RE ASKING FOR FOR YOU KNOW I'M IN MY SURPRISE 14 WEEKS AND YOU KNOW I'M AT THE MINUS OH AND JANUARY 13 SO THE SPRING SO YEAH YEAH THAT'D BE FREE SO AND I KNOW THEY SAY BUSY LIKE I SAID WITH LARRY DOING SO LARRY'S DOING LESSONS WE ALSO HAVE PUBLIC TENNIS OUT THERE DOING LESSONS.
WE ALSO HAVE THE DISABILITY AND SPECIAL NEEDS THAT WE TAKE OUT THERE TO DO LESSONS SO THEY STAY BUSY YOU KNOW COULD WE PROBABLY GIVE UP DO COURTS? YEAH.
I MEAN WE COULD TRY IT I DON'T KNOW YOU KNOW WHAT KIND OF BACKLASH I'M GOING TO GET ON IT SO THAT WOULD BE MY THING. WHAT WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND? I MEAN YOU'RE THERE YOU KNOW, PEOPLE ARE THERE. WHAT YOU KNOW, I DON'T WANT TO NOT WORK WITH THEM.
[00:40:03]
YES. YOU KNOW BUT AT THE SAME TIME YOU KNOW GOING TO I HAVE TO EMPHASIZE THAT THESE PEOPLE THEY GOT TO STOP START IN PROGRAMS WITHOUT THEM WON'T YOU THE FACILITIES BECAUSE IT PUTS US IN A BAD SITUATION AND I'M ABOUT THE KIDS SO THEN THERE WERE PUT IN THE KIDS OUT THAT WANT TO PLAY TENNIS OKAY RIGHT AND WE DON'T KNOW I MEAN THEY COULD BE KIDS TO PLAY VARSITY TENNIS OR WHATEVER. WHO KNOWS? I MEAN IT'S A A SCHOOL. IT'S NONE OF OUR BUSINESS. WELL, I I MY YOU KNOW ENTERTAIN EMOTION WOULD BE THAT WE WOULD REDUCE OUR RATE ON A ONE TIME BASIS BECAUSE IT'S A NEW PROGRAM AND BUT I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THAT DEBT REDUCTION BE MORE 25% OF WHAT OUR NORMAL FEES ARE AND THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE REVIEWED, YOU KNOW, EACH YEAR AND DEPENDENT UPON I GUESS WE'RE GIVING THIS IT'S A WAY TO GIVE THIS A BRIDGE IN THE FIRST YEAR. BUT AGAIN AS SHANNON SAID, WE'VE JUST SPENT TON OF MONEY AT THESE COURTS. THEIR BRAND NEW SO I THINK THAT THAT IT SHOULD BE A FAIRLY SIGNIFICANT FEE THAT THEY PAY WE COULD LOOK AT SOME DISCOUNT BUT THINK THEY SHOULD PAY THE MAJORITY OF IT. THAT'S JUST MY PERSPECTIVE OUT OF ANY OTHER DISCUSSION I'M A LITTLE BIT NOT SYMPATHETIC TO THEM WHEN THEY'RE ESTABLISHING A PROGRAM AND THEN COMING BEGGING FOR COURT OR FIELDS OR WHATEVER IT MIGHT BE IF THEY SAID WELL WE'RE THINKING ABOUT ESTABLISHING A TENNIS PROGRAM WHAT CAN WE WORK OUT IF WE GOT STARTED? YOU KNOW, THAT'S A LITTLE DIFFERENCE ALREADY IN PLACE SO DON'T START NOW WE'RE SAYING HEY GIVE US SOME GIVE US SOME COURT AND GIVE US SOME BREAK ON THE COURTS.I'M RULE TO ME THAT I GET THAT BUT IT SEEMED TO AGAIN THIS WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT UNTIL NEXT SPRING I MEAN SO THEY'RE KIND OF ASKING AHEAD OF TIME IF THEY CAN'T GET A BREAK, MAYBE THEY DON'T HAVE THE PROGRAM DON'T KNOW THAT ANSWER WELL OR IF THEY DON'T LIKE THE AMOUNT RIGHT IS BE IN CHARGE MAYBE THEY START LOOKING AT SOME OF THESE PROGRAMS OR SURE WHERE THEY CAN WORK OUT WHAT IT COSTS TO REDUCE TENNIS COURT PRETTY PENNY.
SO WHERE DOES A TENNIS COURT COST? THAT WAS FOUR SEVEN.
YEAH. SO YOU'RE TALKING 12,000 13,000 PER COURT BUT DID THEY SAY ANYTHING ABOUT ARE THEY GOING TO TRY TO GET THE COURTS BUILT IN IN THE FUTURE? THEY HAVE NOT MATCH AND THEY BALL THEY'RE THE SCHOOL THAT BOUGHT BOB JONES US SO I HAVEN'T BEEN THERE SINCE SAY I DO KNOW THAT THEY'RE BUILDING WELL THAT'S RIGHT SO THEY'RE RELATIVELY NEW YEAH YEAH YEAH.

OH THEY PAY THE NORMAL FEES THAT OKAY SO BUT WE'RE EXCITED TO HAVE BATHROOMS BECAUSE THERE'S MORE TO COME AT PORT ROYAL OH GREAT LYNN BROWN IS OUR BEAUTIFUL KITCHEN IT'S I ONLY WISH I HAD THE BEFORE PICTURES BECAUSE THERE'S JUST LOOKS GREAT RENDERS I SEEN I CAN'T IMAGINE THE EATING NINE WHEN YOU BEFORE YOU THAT WAS THAT FAST I PROBABLY SOMEWHERE BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU I WOULD NOT YOU KNOW YOU DON'T WANT TO SEE IT YOU DON'T WANT TO SEE THE MORE IT WAS REALLY REALLY BAD SO OUR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS ERIC ROBERT THEY DID A GREAT JOB IT IS BEAUTIFUL IT'S JUST SUPER EXCITED ABOUT SO BARTON WELLS PICKLEBALL HERE'S OUR PICKLEBALL SO WE HAD A LITTLE BIT OF BACK ORDER ON THE BENCHES AND THE CANOPIES BUT THEY'RE HOPING TO HAVE THEM IN IF NOT THEY PROJECT THAT THEY WILL BE READY THE FIRST WEEK OF OCTOBER SO I'LL BE WORKING WITH THE PICKLEBALL CLUB'S LETTING YOU GUYS KNOW SETTING A DATE WITH AND WE'LL HAVE A GRAND OPENING RIBBON CUTTING AND WE'RE NOT GOING TO WAIT ON CANOPIES AND BENCHES.WE'RE GOING TO GET STARTED. YOU KNOW THEY'RE NOT IN THE PLAYGROUNDS.
SO REMIND ME IS THAT FUNDED? HOW IS PICKLEBALL AT BURTON FUNDED? THINK ABOUT BURTON WELLS WE HAD FUNDING AND WE USED A TAX MONEY TO FUND PLAYGROUNDS SO IS AN UPDATE ON THE PLAYGROUNDS THAT WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON TOOK A WHILE BECAUSE YOU KNOW I THINK I ORDERED THESE LAST AUGUST HERE WE ARE A YEAR LATER AND IT'S GETTING THERE BUT IT'S THIS WITH THE THINGS IN THE BACK ORDERS IT'S A SLOW PROCESS HERE'S YOUR SHELL POINT PLAYGROUND WHICH IS A HUGE, HUGE IMPROVEMENT. YOUR GLORIA BOX PLAYGROUND ISN'T BIGGER IMPROVEMENT AS IT HAD A VERY DAMAGED SLIDE AND ALL OF THEIR EQUIPMENT WAS THE OLD TIMEY METAL MONKEY BARN. YEAH. SO IT'S A BIG IMPROVEMENT YOUR WESLEY SMALL PLAYGROUND THAT PARK OUT ON SAINT HELENA FORTUNATELY HAS TWO PLAYGROUNDS THEY HAVE TWO LARGE PLAYGROUND AND THIS IS THE 2 TO 6 YEAR OLD PLAYGROUND.
SO AND THEN YOUR NINJA COURSE AT WALTER IS UP THE NINJA COURSE AT BURTON WELLS IS UP DO NOT A PICTURE OF IT COMING SOON BLUFFTON CENTER IS 95% DONE THEY WERE WAITING ON RUBBER MOAT THEY GOT IT IN AND THEY'RE WAITING ON A COUPLE OF CLIPS FOR THE SWINGS THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BE IN THIS WEEK SO I'M HOPING TOMORROW NO LATER THAN MONDAY THAT ONE WILL BE COMPLETE. LYNNE WE HAD A LITTLE BIT OF DRAINAGE ISSUES AND SOME ISSUES THAT WE NEEDED TO WORK OUT ON WHAT WE WERE GOING TO DO WITH THE DRAINAGE THAT'S ALL WORKED OUT MULCH IS THERE, PLAYGROUNDS THERE. THE CREW WILL BE THERE TO GET THAT TOGETHER. THEY ARE FINISHING UP AGNES MAJOR WHICH IS A HUGE IMPROVEMENT AS WELL AS THAT ONE WAS VERY OLD AND WASN'T MUCH LEFT OF IT.
WE HAD TAKEN OUT PIECE BY PIECE AND DISPOSED OF . YOU MIGHT HAVE HAD ONE PIECE LEFT OUT THERE WHEN THIS PLAYGROUND STARTED SO THAT'S GOING TO BE A HUGE IMPROVEMENT FOR THAT AREA. AND ONE OTHER THING HANGING WE'RE JUST TALKING ABOUT THAT I NEEDED TO SEE IF I KNOW WE APPROVED THE AGENDA BUT WE DID HAVE SOMETHING CAME UP LAST
[00:50:02]
MINUTE THAT I NEED TO TRY TO GET A VOTE ON IF I CAN GET APPROVAL TO DO THAT.SO YOU WANT TO AMEND THE AGENDA? YES.
WHAT ARE YOU ADDING? I'M ADDING A REQUEST FROM A TRAVEL BASEBALL TEAM.
I WANTED TO ALSO ADD TO HAVE YOU ADDRESS ALSO TWO THINGS WE PROBABLY SHOULD TALK ABOUT THIS BUT WITH PICKLEBALL, THE SOUTHSIDE PROJECT AND IN GENERAL THE THIS THING THAT I, I READ WHICH IS THE THE WOODEN PARTNERS PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN SO WE'VE BEEN WAITING THIS FOR A LONG TIME AND I DON'T I DON'T NECESSARILY WANT TO DISCUSS IT BUT I THINK IF WE CAN IF WE CAN MAKE IT AVAILABLE THEN EVERYONE YEAH I WAS GOING TO TURN IT IN THEN DISCUSS IT, PUT IT IN AS AN AGENDA ITEM NEXT NEXT TIME. OKAY AND I CAN IN THE MEANTIME WHAT I CAN DO WITH THAT IS I CAN EMAIL IT TO EVERYBODY THAT'S SUPPLEMENTARY THAT WAS PRESENTED TO COUNCIL. IT IS NOT FINAL APPROVED SO BUT IF YOU WANT TO LOOK AT WHAT WAS PRESENTED THE COUNCIL I CAN EMAIL THAT OUT TO EVERYONE. OKAY SO THIS THIS IS NOT FINAL RULE CORRECT? OKAY. SO THAT'S THE ONLY REASON I HADN'T IT TO Y'ALL IS BECAUSE IT WAS THE ELEMENTARY YEAH OKAY I WOULD SAY SEND IS EVERYBODY TO LOOK AT IT AND THEN WE CAN LOOK AT THE FINAL AS WELL SEE WHAT THE DIFFERENCES ARE.
ALL RIGHT. SO PICKLEBALL SOUTHSIDE. YEAH IF YOU COULD JUST COMMENT . SO PICKLEBALL SOUTHSIDE IS OUT FOR AN RFP THEY WILL BE ADDING THE IT WILL BE THE FULL SIZED TENNIS COURTS WHICH EQUALS 2 TO 4 PICKLEBALL COURTS.
SO THERE WILL BE SIX TOTAL PICKLEBALL COURTS OUT THERE WITH A HALF A BASKETBALL COURT THAT IS GOING OUT THERE AND THEY WORKED IN A PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CITY OF .
SO TENNIS COURTS ARE THEY'RE BEING CONVERTED. THE TENNIS COURTS THAT ARE ARE STILL GOING TO STAY AS A TENNIS COURT. OKAY.
BUT WE HAVE WE HAVE ONE TENNIS COURT AND TWO PICKLEBALL. SO WE WILL BE ANOTHER FULL COURT WHICH IS YOU KNOW BUT WE'LL BE MAKING THEM FOR PICKLEBALL.
YEAH. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVEN'T BEEN HERE WE'VE THERE'S A VERY ACTIVE PICKLEBALL CONTINGENT NORTH THE BROAD AND THEY'RE SOUTH OF THE BROAD AS WELL.
NOW SHANNON POST THIS WILL HAVE SOMETHING 15 COURTS NORTH OF THE BOROUGH YEAH THERE WILL BE SIX OUT THERE EIGHT AND THEN WE HAVE THE TWO AT CHOP POINT. OKAY GOOD TO SEE THE BALL DO WE HAVE ANY WAY WE THEY THEY FORM THAT THEY'RE THEY'RE A GROUP OF THEIR OWN GUYS.
YEAH YEAH WELL THAT'S GOOD ALL MY FRIENDS SAY YOU NEED TO LEARN TO PLAY NO THEY SAY IT'S MINE. ONE OF THE THINGS WITH PICKLEBALL THAT IT'LL BE INTERESTING SEE HOW IT COMES ABOUT BECAUSE I'VE I'VE NOT PLAYED PICKLEBALL BUT I SPOKEN TO A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO DO THE SOUND FROM THE PICKLEBALL IS VERY LOUD SO APPARENTLY WHEN IT'S NEAR RESIDENTIAL AREAS THERE'S IT'S A VERY LOUD SOUND SO AND SO IT'LL BE INTERESTING IN THAT YEAH DEPENDING ON THEIR SKILL LEVELS IT'S SO GOOD. ALL RIGHT SO WHAT ABOUT THE REQUEST FROM A TRAVEL SO WE GOT AN EMAIL HANK ACTUALLY GOT AN EMAIL ON ONE OF OUR COUNCIL MEMBERS STATING THAT A CHILD SICK WAS GOING TO NEED SOME TREATMENT.
I CAN READ IT ONE OF THE ONE OF THE PLAYERS WAS AND WAS RUSHED TO NEUROSURGEON NEEDED SURGERY AND IS GOING TO BE LIKE NASSAU COUNTY COUNCIL GOING TO ALLOW US TO PUT ON A BASEBALL TOURNAMENT OSCAR FRAZIER THAT BE A FUNDRAISING FOR FOR THE FAMILY HUNDRED PERCENT OF THE PROCEEDS GOING TO THEM AS PART OF THEIR OPPORTUNITIES THAT YOU PRODUCED FOR US THEY'RE GOING TO CANCEL A FEW GAMES THAT THEY HAVE ON THOSE FIELDS IN ORDER TO MAKE IT HAPPEN.
WE'RE ASKING THE COUNTY FOR EACH OF US. WE'RE READY TO FIELD ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY, OCTOBER 14TH AND 15TH FIELD MAINTENANCE AND SETUP SIX UMPIRES BOTH DAYS WE WOULD BE ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF THE REST THEY SAY WE ARE 523 OPEN BUT PEOPLE ARE HUNGRY SO THE PROCEEDS THE FAMILY WHO'S THE WHAT'S THE SCREAMS, THE WAVES YEAH. SO WHAT I'M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT IS WHAT ONE I JUST HAD A
[00:55:03]
MEETING WITH LOFTON USE FOR SO ONE I HAVE NOT CONFIRMED THAT THEY WOULD CANCEL THE GAMES THEY'RE ALREADY LOSING NEXT SATURDAY ALL DAY BECAUSE OF THE POLICE DEPARTMENT DOING A BIG DAY OUT AT THE PARK WHERE THEY WANT ALL THE POLICE TO MEET THE KIDS AND DO A HOT DOGS AND WHATEVER AND YOU KNOW BIG FAMILY DAY THAT THEY'RE THEY ASK US MONTHS AGO TO NOT DO ANYTHING ON THAT DAY THE BLUFFTON NEWS SPORTS YOU KNOW I WOULD NEED ONE CONFIRMED WITH THEM BUT ONE OF THEIR BIGGEST COMPLAINTS IS BECAUSE OF ADULT SOFTBALL THIS TIME OF YEAR IT DOES MAKE THEIR SEASON LONG SO LOSING ANOTHER WHOLE SATURDAY IS JUST GOING TO ADD TO THE END OF THEIR SEASON. I DON'T I BELIEVE THAT YOU GUYS CAN VOTE ON THE FREE USE OF THE FIELDS BUT THINK IT WOULD BE UP TO THE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION AS TO WHETHER WE WOULD PAY UMPIRES AND THAT DOESN'T MAKE ANY MAINTENANCE? I THINK SO YEAH.IS THAT THE ONLY FEEL THEY WANT IS OSCAR FRAZIER IS THERE ANY OTHER PLACE THAT THEY CAN HAVE THIS TOURNAMENT? WELL, THIS IS 11 YEAR OLD IS AN 11 YEAR OLD TOURNAMENT.
THEY THEY DIDN'T SAY I MEAN THAT'S WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S TOO LATE TO SATURDAY AND SUNDAY TO SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. THAT'S A THAT'S A TOURNAMENT THAT'S A THAT'S A LOT OF TEAMS YEAH AND THEY THREE FIELDS FIELDS FOR TWO DAYS FOR FREE AND SO THEY'RE GOING TO CHARGE ENTRY FEE THEY'RE GOING TO THEY'RE GOING TO COLLECT OR I GUESS DONATE OR WHATNOT AND THEN HAVE ALL IT AND HAVE THE PROCEEDS GO TO THE SO AS TO PAY FOR UMPIRES AND AND AND THE LIGHTING AND THEY'VE GOT TO PAY FOR THE LIGHTING ON THE FIELD THEY'RE GOING TO WE WE PAY THEY BASICALLY WANT US TO PAY FOR EVERYTHING. YEAH WELL NUMBER ONE, I DON'T THINK THIS THIS BOARD CAN CAN PAY AND WE CANNOT EXPEND RESOURCES.
WE CAN JUST I MEAN WE CAN RECOMMEND FEES OR REDUCTION STATED FEES.
SO I DON'T THINK AS FAR AS UMPIRES AND WHAT WAS THE THAT YOU SAID MAINTENANCE YEAH TYPICALLY WHEN WE GIVE THESE WHEN WE GIVE THESE FIELDS UP THEY TYPICALLY HANDLE THEIR OWN TRASH REMOVAL AND OTHER THINGS DON'T THEY. I MEAN WHEN WE DO THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO HAVE THEIR OWN INSURANCE THERE A NORMAL THING AND LET ME SAY THIS I SMILED AND IT WASN'T A SMILE. I WAS JUST THINKING YOU'RE YOU'RE ASKING AND I UNDERSTAND THE NEED FOR THIS CHILD AND MY HEART GOES TO THE CHILD BUT THEN TO ASK THE COUNTY TO PAY BASICALLY YOU'RE ASKING US TO PAY FOR A TERM YOU ASKING US TO TO GIVE AND THEN PAY SOMEONE OUT PAY YES IT'S COME OUT OF OUR POCKETS REALLY. SO HE WOULD AS IT IS IS NOT I DON'T THINK IT'S FAIR. IT DOESN'T SOUND FAIR BUT IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO ME.
I MEAN WOULD THERE BE A WAY FOR THEM TO TRY TO DO A SMALLER TOURNAMENT AND DO IT ON A FRIDAY NIGHT AND NOBODY'S USING FIELD ON FRIDAY NIGHTS. RIGHT.
AND YOU GOT THREE FIELDS AND IF YOU INCORPORATED M.C. RILEY YOU COULD POTENTIALLY HAVE SIX FIELDS AND YOU COULD TRY TO GET SOME OF IT AND THEN MAYBE ON SUNDAY THAT WAY YOU'RE NOT EVEN DISRUPTING ON SATURDAY FOR BYU ADS. YOU'RE SAYING DO SOMETHING ON A FRIDAY AND YES, SUNDAY. YEAH. BUT AS YOU KNOW, I JUST DON'T THINK IT MAKES SENSE TO DISRUPT WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE. HOW MANY KIDS DO WE HAVE PAID PLAYING FOR BASEBALL? SOMETHING LIKE 339, RIGHT? YEAH GETTING IN THEY'RE USING AND THEY CAN REALLY PLAY SUNDAY AND SATURDAYS. YEAH.
THE GAMES ARE THE ONLY ONLY THING THEY GET FIELDS IF I MAY SAY LAST THING I'VE DONE DONATION TOURNAMENTS AND USUALLY THE WAY IT WORKS IS YOU HAVE TEAMS COME IN, THEY COLLECT MONEY ON A DAY YOU JUST HAVEN'T PLAYED EVERYONE PLAYS MAYBE TWO OR THREE GAMES.
THERE'S A TIME LIMIT SO YOU JUST YOU JUST PLAYING BALL AND THEN YOU SEND THEM HOME.
THAT'S I'VE DONE BEFORE. I MEAN I'VE ACTUALLY HOSTED THEM I'VE ACTUALLY PLAYED IN THEM AND YOU JUST COME IN PAY MONEY. THERE'S NO CHARGING.
THERE'S NO ENTRY FEE. YOU PAY FOR EVERYTHING YOU PAY FOR THEM MAINTENANCE, YOU PAY FOR LIGHTING. SO YOU HAVE SOME YES. AND THEN YOU JUST THAT'S IT'S USUALLY ONE DAY IT'S USUALLY JUST ONE DAY HAVING SOME FUN GIVE MONEY TO HELP THE PARENTS OUT. BUT THIS SOUNDS LIKE YOU WANT TO OFFER THIS IN REAL TERMS. YES. YEAH. I'M SORRY THIS I DON'T SEE ANY TRAVEL. YES. YEAH, THAT'S WHAT THIS LIKE IT
[01:00:05]
SOUNDS LIKE IT OUTRIGHT AND HEY HE'S IN ALL OF THEM. I DON'T SEE THEM DOING THAT YOU KNOW I MEAN THEY I DO SEE TRAVEL TOURNAMENTS DOWN IN SAVANNAH YEAH.WHERE THEY ARE THEY'RE NOT TRAVEL TOURNAMENTS BUT THEY'RE MADE UP OF TRAVEL TEAMS FOR BENEFIT REASONS. YES BUT IT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE THAT'S WHAT IS BUT I DON'T THINK YOU TAKE AWAY FROM THINGS THAT ARE ALREADY SCHEDULED FOR YOUR PROGRAM TO DO IT WHEN YOU COULD VERY EASILY JUST DO IT ON SUNDAY ONE DAY TURN ONE DAY ONE DAY ONE AND THEY'VE GOT ALL DAY FOR THE ADMINISTRATION ANOTHER PAYMENT THEN YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT LIGHTS.
YEAH THEY COULD. I DON'T KNOW. I MEAN I KNOW ABOUT CHALK AND FIELDS AND STUFF LIKE THAT BUT ARE THE FIELDS OPEN ON SUNDAY I MEAN IS THERE ANY ACTIVITY ON THOSE FIELDS ON THAT SUNDAY PRACTICES BECAUSE THEY DON'T GET MUCH, DO THEY? I MEAN ARE THE ARE THEY ARE PRACTICES SCHEDULED ON SUNDAYS FOR TEAMS AND THEY DO PRACTICE SUNDAYS BUT I MEAN ALL OF THEM AND M.C. RILEY I MEAN THEY PROBABLY COULD MOVE TEAMS HERE EARLY. YEAH. SO I WOULDN'T WORRY ABOUT GETTING MOODY BURTON NO, LOOK, REALLY, I'M JUST I'M JUST THROWING OUT SOME SAY I HAVE NO WE HAVE. OH, THAT'S RIGHT. YEAH.
ALL RIGHT. I I WOULD THINK THAT THE WHITE HOUSE WOULD MAKE AN EXCEPTION AND NOT WORRY ABOUT SUNDAY ESPECIALLY IF THEY COULD KEEP THEIR SATURDAY GAMES.
THEN THE QUESTION BECOMES WHAT WOULD IT BE APPROPRIATE TO WOULD IT BE APPROPRIATE TO ALLOW BYU TO MAKE THAT DECISION BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE FIELDS VERSUS US? I MEAN WE WOULD NEED BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO TAKE ANY REASON I MEAN YOU CAN MAKE THE YOU EITHER WAY THE DECISION IS MORE OR LESS OF THE FEES THAT'S WHERE YOUR FOCUS IS.
OH WELL THE FACILITY YOU'RE BASICALLY TELLING US THAT THE FACILITIES REALLY ARE ARE STACKED FULL OF ACTIVITY AND WE REALLY HAVE ANY ABILITY TO DO ANYTHING FROM AN ALLOCATION.
WELL, IF THEY IF THEY DECIDED THAT THEY WANTED TO GIVE IT UP WITHOUT THE UP TO THEM THEM BEING IT'LL BE WORSE AND MORE YOU SAY SOMETHING ABOUT FEES ENDING WE RIGHT YEAH IT'S ALL THE DECISION ON THEM BUT I RECOMMEND THE SUN OR I DON'T KNOW MAYBE IT'S BLENDED BUT I WASN'T SO WELL HAVING BEEN INVOLVED IN IN TRAVEL BASEBALL LIKE ALLEN HAS BEEN YOU KNOW A TEAM IS GOING TO TO BLUFFTON AND THEY'RE PROBABLY GOING TO PAY A MAX OF $500 TO PLAY AND.
THERE'S A LOT FOR THAT IN THAT THAT'S A LOT AND ON TOP OF THAT THE THE UMPIRES ARE GETTING $50 A GAME MAYBE SO YOU KNOW I DON'T IT JUST SEEMS LIKE I MEAN WELL I HAVE A LOT OF EMPATHY FOR THIS YOUNG MAN. YES CERTAINLY AND I DID YOU THE ONE THING YOU HE DOESN'T PLAY OUR PART I DID LIKE THAT OH OH THIS IS A TRAVEL KID WHO'S YEAH YEAH YEAH.
BUT I'M SURE THAT THERE ARE OTHER KIDS ON THAT TEAM THAT DO YEAH YOU KNOW SOME KIDS PLAY WELL YEAH. RIGHT NOW UM, I, I DON'T NUMBER ONE IF WE IF WE DO IF WE DO NOT CHARGE A FEE FOR USE OF A FIELD FOR A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME THEN THEY WOULD NEED TO HANDLE ALL THEIR TRASH AND WHATEVER ELSE AND UMPIRES AND UMPIRES AND WHATEVER ELSE.
I MEAN WHO'S GOING TO WHO'S GOING TO BE MAINTAINING THE FIELDS BETWEEN GAMES I MEAN WE'RE I MEAN WOULD IT BE WOULD WE BE WISE RIGHT TO BE WHERE WE HAVE EQUIPMENT OUT THERE WHERE THEY MIGHT LINE THE FIELDS ON SATURDAY? I MEAN YOU KNOW YOU KNOW AS WELL AS I DO THE TOURNAMENT AND YOU KNOW, ONE OF OUR CONCERNS WITH THE WHOLE THING IS LIKE UM SAID WHEN WE STARTED THIS MEETING I'VE GOT TO STATE I'VE GOT A WORLD SERIES, I GOT A LOT OF OVERTIME COMING UP FOR MY PEOPLE. YES.
YOU KNOW, AND THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE THE FACT THAT I'VE ALREADY ON THE GIRLS SOFTBALL DISTRICTS. MM YEAH. I GUESS I GUESS THE WAY THAT THAT I WOULD HAVE APPROACHED THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN IF THEY CAME WANTED TO HAVE A TOURNAMENT TO RAISE MONEY FOR A YOUNG MAN AND ASKED FOR A DISCOUNT ON THE TO RENT THE
[01:05:02]
FACILITY AND THEN IF THE FACILITY WAS AVAILABLE THEN WE COULD DO THAT.DOES MAKE SENSE YEAH SO VERSUS GIVING SOMETHING SOME SOMETHING YOU KNOW REGAN THAT YOU WANT YEAH SO BECAUSE IN THE END WE STILL HAVE TO PAY THE STAFF BECAUSE A STAFF PERSON HAS TO BE THERE TO MAKE SURE THAT THINGS RUN WELL. AM I CORRECT? WE'D HAVE TO PAY A STAFF PERSON TO BE THERE ON A RENTAL. YEAH, WE DON'T KNOW WHEN WE TYPICALLY BUT THEN YOU ALSO HAVE THINGS LIKE YOU KNOW BE YOU ASK WELL HAVE THE BOSSES DECISION TO OPEN UP THEIR SNACK BAR DO WHATEVER THEY WANTED TO DO, ARE THEY CHARGING FOR THEM? AND SO I THINK THE NATURE OF THE NATURE OF THE REQUEST WOULD LEAD ME TO DECLINE IT.
THAT'S ALSO JUST THE WAY THAT IT'S THAT IT'S BEEN SUBMITTED IN TERMS OF AND IT SOUNDS LIKE DON'T HAVE FIELD AVAILABILITY ANYWAY ON THAT WEEKEND. YEAH BECAUSE I WAS THINKING THAT BECAUSE WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THE TRASH I MEAN WHO'S GOING TO BE THERE TO MONITOR TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY ACTUALLY EMPTY THE AND TAKE IT WELL WELL AND I MEAN WE'RE WE'RE MEETING AGAIN ANOTHER COUPLE OF MONTHS AND OF COURSE YOU KNOW I'M ONE OF THESE THAT IF YOU KNOW WITH ALL THIS GOING ON I'M SURE THIS IS GOING TO BE A LONG IF NOT LONGER ISSUE WITH, YOU KNOW, THIS POOR CHILD RIGHT. YOU KNOW, I HAVE MENTIONED TO HANK THAT, YOU KNOW, I HAD SOME THOUGHTS AND IDEAS THAT WE'VE DONE IN THE PAST. YOU KNOW, WHEN PEOPLE HAVE COME TO US AND YOU KNOW, I'LL GET MY ADULT SOFTBALL TEAMS TOGETHER AND SAY, HEY, YOU KNOW, Y'ALL WANT TO HOST YOU KNOW Y'ALL WANT TO HAVE TOURNAMENT AND YOU KNOW, THEY FIND THE UMPIRES.
THEY'LL GET THEIR OWN PEOPLE YOU KNOW, ANOTHER TEAM TO OFFICIATE AND KNOW STUFF LIKE THAT WHERE IT'S LOT EASIER AND A LOT LESS COMPLEX, YOU KNOW, TO BE ABLE TO DO KICKBALL TOURNAMENTS WHERE IN THESE TYPE TOURNAMENTS TYPICALLY HAVE THE COACH FROM THE TEAM THAT JUST PLAYED UMPIRE THE NEXT GAME SO YOU DON'T HAVE ANY CALLS, RIGHT? RIGHT. AND THAT'S WHAT WE DO WITH THE ADULTS SO COULD TRY TO YOU KNOW, WORK OUT SOMETHING THAT YOU KNOW THAT I MIND TRYING TO HELP OUT IN OTHER WORDS IF BUT WE COULD DO IT ON A SUNDAY OR A WEEKNIGHT YOU KNOW WE COULD DO KICKBALL WE COULD DO THAT THIS . I'M JUST SORT ON THEIR SIDE NOT ARGUE WHAT'S ON THE OTHER.
THIS IS SPECIFIC TO THEIR PERSON IT SOUNDS LIKE THEY'RE TRYING TO RUN THE TERM YEAH THAT'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT FROM US TRYING TO HELP OUR PERSON OUR OWN COMMUNITY.
ALL RIGHT. SO UM I GUESS NEW TO THE ORIGINAL PROPOSAL IS YOU KNOW AND MAYBE POSSIBLY ACCOMMODATE A SUNDAY EVENT IF IT'S IF IT'S AVAILABLE SO THAT'D BE EMOTIONAL I GUESS THAT WOULD BE MY VERSION. YES.
OKAY. SO I WANT TO GO BACK TO ALL RIGHT.
[8. AQUATICS]
SO A ONE DAY A ONE DAY EVENT AT NO FEE FOR THE FACILITY FOR OSCAR FRAZIER IS WHAT WE'RE SAYING VERSUS IF IT'S AVAILABLE SWIMMING AVAILABILITY AND IN THEY'RE REQUIRED THEY PAY FOR EVERYTHING ELSE THEY'RE REQUIRED FOR EVERYTHING YEAH YES YEAH AND UMPIRES OKAY PENDING AVAILABILITY AND SHANNON YOU'LL YOU'LL WORK THAT OUT IF IF IF IT'S AVAILABLE IT'S NOT IT'S THAT DOES THAT MAKE SENSE YEAH OKAY I THINK IS EVERYBODY UNDERSTAND THE MOTION YES SO ALL IN FAVOR I FIRST DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE MOTION THIS MINUTE TAKER JUST SAID YOU GOT IT OKAY NOW DOES THAT RULE FOR YOU INCLUDE THE LIGHTS? NO, I THINK WE SAID SUN DAY SUNDAY. SUNDAY DAY NOT INCLUDING LIGHTS.WE'RE NOT PLAYING TILL NINE AT NIGHT AND TURN ON THE LIGHTS. YEAH, OKAY.
HOW ABOUT YOU? UM, THIS IS THE INFORMATION FOR OUR BATTERY CREAKING OR COOL.
SO POOL HOURS ARE TUESDAYS AND THURSDAYS 8 TO 12 ONE SEVEN SATURDAYS DURING THE SUMMERTIME WE'VE BEEN FLIP FLOPPING FROM BATTERY CREEP TO OFTEN BUT THE SATURDAY INFLATABLES ARE 1030 TO 430. THEN WE HAVE OUR SCHOOL SWIM LESSONS THAT ARE ABOUT TO START.

CAN I ASK A QUESTION DOES DOES THE PATRON CHECK IN INCLUDES ONE TEAMS YES IT DOES INCLUDE SWIM.
WHOEVER COMES INTO THE FACILITY HAS TO BE CHECKED IN. OKAY.
SO DID SWIM TEAMS HAVE PRACTICE IN JUNE AND JULY OR NO, THEY DO HAVE PRACTICE IN JUNE AND JULY BUT A LOT OF FAMILIES GO ON VACATIONS SO THAT'S WHY ALL THE NUMBERS GO DOWN DURING THAT TIME FRAME. BUT IT'S STILL HIGH. GOOD.
OUR ALVIN SELLS OUTDOOR POOL WERE GOOD ALL SUMMER. THE LAST DAY WAS ON LABOR DAY.
WE DO HAVE OUR DOGGIE DAY THAT'S COMING UP THIS SATURDAY FROM 10 TO 1 AND THEN OUR PATRON CHECK FOR MAY WAS 137 FOR JUNE WAS 1924 JULY WAS 2462 AND AUGUST WAS 996.
THE THING FOR THE ALVIN SUTTLES POOL I THINK WHAT REALLY HELPED WAS THE INFLATABLES AT THAT POOL. A LOT OF PEOPLE THE CLASSES THAT WE OFFER WE OFFER GROUP PRIVATE SWIM LESSONS ALL YEAR ROUND. WE OFFER STROKE IMPROVEMENT CLASSES THOSE ARE NORMALLY FOR ARE ADULTS AND THEN WE OFFER CPR AND LIFEGUARDING CLASSES DEMAND ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT IS THE I MEAN BLUFFTON WAS CLOSED UNTIL WHEN WHEN DID BLUFFTON REOPEN THEY REOPENED LAST OCTOBER . OH OKAY.
AND ALMOST A YEAR IN BLUFFTON GETS MOST MOST PLAY OTHER THAN THE OUTDOOR POOL DURING THE SUMMERTIME HOW IS THE HOW THE MAINTENANCE AT ALL THE POOLS UM I MEAN IN TERMS OF THE STRUCTURE AND EVERYTHING ELSE ARE WE IN GOOD SHAPE? WE NEED MORE STRUCTURE BUT WORKING ON THAT OKAY BECAUSE WE WE WE DO HAVE SOME IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE'RE MAKING RIGHT AND WE HAVE SOME MONEY THAT YES BLUFFTON WAS THE ONE THAT WAS BEING WORKED ON FIRST.
THE OTHER TWO POOLS HAVEN'T BEEN WORKED ON YET AS WE'RE STILL WAITING FOR THEM TO GIVE ONE. OKAY. BUT WE DO HAVE MONEY SET ASIDE FOR THAT RIGHT? I BELIEVE SO. OKAY SHANNON WE DO HAVE MONEY SET ASIDE FOR HOW MUCH DO WE HAVE LEFT IN THE POOL FUND SO I WENT THROUGH THE CERP AND YOU KNOW WE HAD THE FOUR AND A HALF MILLION. SO ONCE THEY GET TO THAT BECAUSE WE WERE GOING TO ADD SOME MORE ASSETS TO ADD SOME MORE TO IT BUT RIGHT NOW GONE OUT TO BID FOR THE AIR CONDITIONING FOR ALL THREE POOLS BECAUSE THEY'VE DECIDED THAT IT WOULD BE BETTER OFF TO GET THE HEATING AND AIR DONE BEFORE THE PAINTING ON THE NEXT TWO. OKAY. BUT WE THINK WE HAVE ENOUGH MONEY ALLOCATED KNOW PROBABLY NOT BUT THEY'LL BE ASKING FOR MORE TO GET THIS WE'RE JUST
[01:15:02]
PLAYING THE WHAT YOU SAID CFP WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT FUNDING THAT WE USE FOR THESE? OBVIOUSLY THE CRB IS A CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT AND THAT'S WHAT WE HAVE TO PUT IN A REQUEST FOR IN OUR BUDGET EACH YEAR FOR WHAT WE FEEL LIKE THAT WE NEED FOR CAPITAL PROJECTS AND IT CAN BE ANYTHING YOU KNOW AS SIMPLE AS YOU KNOW ONE OF MY CENTERS YESTERDAY I'M GOING TO PUT IN NEXT YEAR FOR NEW FLOORING SO WE PUT IT IN AND THEN THEY PUT BASED UPON YOU KNOW RHODE STREETS, YOU KNOW WHATEVER AND WHAT MONEY THAT THEY HAVE AND THEN THEY THEY USUALLY PUT TOGETHER A COMMITTEE OF PEOPLE AND THEN IT'S VOTED AND ALLOCATED.OKAY. AND THE IN THE OTHER AND THE OTHER WAY GET MONEY IS THROUGH IMPACT THAT IMPACTS THE AND I THINK THAT'S THE ONE I EXPLAINED TO YOU BEFORE IS LIKE
[9. EMPLOYEE UPDATE]
WITH BUCKWALTER BUILT IT WAS BUILT EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH IMPACT FEES SO YOU KNOW THE IMPACT FEES COME IN AND THE MONEY HAS TO BY LAW BE SPENT THE AREA IN WHICH THE MONEY WAS COLLECTED BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE THE IMPACT TAKES. RIGHT.SO YOU I WOULD EXPECT NORTH OF THE BROAD THERE WOULD THE IMPACT FEES ARE STARTING TO GROW LITTLE BIT RELATIVELY THEY ARE IN DIFFERENT AREAS THE BURTON AREA STILL YOU KNOW WE'RE AS LITTLE AS I THINK THE LAST TIME I LOOKED WHERE LIKE 60 SOMETHING THOUSAND BUT YOU KNOW VERSUS IN BOSTON BUT THEN YOU KNOW OF COURSE WE DID WESLEY FELIX PARK OUT ON SAINT HELENA YOU KNOW WE SPENT OVER $800,000 IN IMPACT FEES BECAUSE THAT'S MUCH MONEY WAS IN THE IMPACT FEE FUND AT THE TIME AND THAT'S HOW WE DID ALL THE IMPROVEMENTS TO THAT PART YOU KNOW DOING THE COVERED BATTING CAGES AND REDOING ALL THE FIELDS AND STUFF LIKE AND THEN YOU HAVE PARK GRANTS THAT YOU THAT WE GO AFTER WE DO WE GO AFTER PARK GRANTS WHEN THEY'RE AVAILABLE AND USE THEM PART OF PART OF DOWNTOWN TENNIS WAS PART GRANT FUNDING AS WELL THANK YOU JUST INFORMATION.
