A City ofCenterville - 2001.- 2002 Goals & Objectives Page 20f 4 ~ Summer Youth: Determine appropriate vendors to provide summer youth recreational activities using city parks and facilities. YMCA is already developing a program for 6-10 year olds, but a program needs to be developed for older youth as well. Weeklong camps for sports (soccer, baseball, basketball etc.), science. nature, or any other item of interest should be implemented for summer 2001 as a pilot program using the dollars allocated. The committee should also explore using Centerville Elementary School for supervised recreational activities throughout the year. The committee is encouraged to contact Lino Lakes Park and Recreation to determine if there are any opportunities that could benefit citizens of both communities. This item is intended to enhance recreational opportunities that already exist such as Little League Baseball and soccer elal. Again in may be too late to implement this in 2001. If so, summer 2002 is the target date for implementation. SwImming Swimming is another pilot project and there could be many more ideas that surface. Also explore providing safe and supervised swimming opportunities at Centerville Beach for all citizens. Included in this item may be bus service, supervision, lifeguards and other " items that may be deemed necessary to accomplish the goal of safe: access and supervision of the Centerville Beach swimming area. Hours of operation and other implementation issues are to be determined through a cooperative agreement with the County Park. It may not be feasible to launch this program this summer. but it should be implemented by next summer.
