WABASSU PROGRI'SSIVE CIVIC CENTER <br />i'. 0. [pox 7!.6 <br />Wabasso, Florida 32970 <br />October 2, 1978 <br />Mr. Edward J. Regan, Director <br />Community Development Block Grant <br />2121 14th -Avenue <br />Vero Beach, Florida 32960 <br />Dear Mr. Regan: <br />This is to confirm our conversation today relative to the <br />cost of the two basketball backstops needed to complete the <br />basketball court in the West Wabasso.Park. <br />In accord with your suggestion, I have -discussed basketball <br />backstops with Mr. Charles Parks, Recreation Director of the City <br />of Vero Beach. He recommended that a basketball backstop manu- <br />factured by Miracle Recreation Equipment Company, Model #360-440 <br />would provide a long lasting backstop at a minimal cost. This <br />model is a single basket backstop, one fiberglass fan extended <br />4' from a 42" pole. Mr. Parks estimates that a single unit <br />will cost approximately $348.00 and that it would be an additional <br />$80.00 in shipping cost. The cost of a single unit being about <br />$428.00. <br />We are developing a regulation basketball court which will <br />allow for league play and therefore, we need two basketball <br />backstops; the estimated cost being $856.00. In any event, we <br />do not believe the cost of the two basketball backstops would <br />exceed $900.00. <br />Both Mr. Franklin Johnson and I plan to see that the back- <br />stops are installed, even though we are currently awaiting refunding <br />of our CETA program. <br />Yours truly, <br />Albert Snyder <br />MR. REGAN INTRODUCED MR. SNYDER AND MR. .JOHNSON AND STATED <br />THAT THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO BE PROUD OF WHAT THEY HAVE ACCOMPLISHED IN <br />THAT PARK. <br />ALBERT SNYDER, DIRECTOR FOR THE CETA PROGRAM IN WABASSO AND <br />ALSO SITE SUPERVISOR FOR THE WABASSO PARK, INFORMED THE BOARD THAT THEY <br />HAVE BUILT BATHROOM FACILITIES WHICH ARE ALMOST COMPLETE, COMPLETED <br />'o TWO TENNIS COURTS, AND A BASKETBALL COURT, AND ALSO -HAVE PICNIC TABLES <br />AND BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL FIELDS. <br />CHAIRMAN WODTKE ASKED HOW THE BASKETBALL BACKSTOPS WOULD BE <br />INSTALLED, AND MR. SNYDER STATED THAT HE AND HIS SUPERVISOR MR. .JOHNSON <br />WOULD INSTALL THEM. <br />85 <br />L_ OCT 41971;10 <br />wK 36 PaGIE408 <br />
