M M <br />RECREATION <br />Pat Callahan, Recreation Director, gave an overview of the <br />Recreation Department. Charles Park was hired in 1958 as the first <br />professional in recreation and was hired by a group called Indian <br />River Recreation, Inc., and the City of Vero Beach paid his salary. <br />Between 1958 and 1976 the City funded all recreation programs. <br />However, the County donated in-kind services, including land. From <br />1976 to 1987 the Parks Department was operated by the County and <br />the City handled all recreation services, although the County <br />contributed funds to the City for various programs. Currently the <br />Recreation Department is a combined operation of the City and the <br />County. <br />Director Callahan described the various activities provided by <br />the Recreation Department, including supervised games at Gifford <br />and South County Parks, softball leagues, crafts, Teens United for <br />Fun (T.U.F.F.), and various annual special events. <br />The County Recreation Department administers the lifeguard <br />program at County beach parks, and the City administers the <br />lifeguard program at City parks. <br />Commissioner Adams commended Director Callahan and her staff <br />for all their efforts and help. <br />Commissioner Bird mentioned that the goals of Parks and <br />Recreation have been to provide equal and affordable recreation <br />opportunities county -wide, and he feels we are getting closer to <br />those goals. <br />GOLF <br />Bob Komarinetz, Golf Course Director, gave a presentation on <br />the Sandridge Golf Club. Information was distributed to the Board <br />summarizing the history of the golf course and current expansion <br />plans. Director Komarinetz mentioned that the golf course is open <br />every day of the year except Christmas Day. The best 14 -year-old <br />player in the United States is one of Sandridge's junior golfers. <br />Director Komarinetz expressed pride in the golf courses and all <br />that has been accomplished since the original course opened in <br />1987. He indicated that construction of the second 18 holes and a <br />clubhouse were recently completed and the New Lakes Course is open <br />for play. Sandridge Golf Club employs a staff of 61 with a total <br />operational budget of $3 million. <br />Commissioner Bird mentioned that Sandridge has supported <br />itself financially since the beginning, and that government surveys <br />have revealed that golf is one of the important features that bring <br />visitors and tourists to a community. <br />5 <br />DEC 2 3 1992 BOOK F:, <br />
