Staff Report

Summer Programming
As of June 12th, we have taken 1,661 registrations. I believe we will at least match registration from last
summer, which was a total of 1,999. Pee wee programs continue to be popular and we've had another
record year of t-ball registrations with 543 registrations to date. Numbers are down considerably for
Girls Summer Basketball League and for Strength and Conditioning. We haven't been able to pinpoint
to reason for this but hope that the numbers will grow a little more in the next week or so. We have had
some nice compliments on the variety of programs we offer. We are extremely busy and have extra help
in the office to help out.
Summer Staffing
We have completed our staffing for summer and we have 32 employees for our summer programs.
Additionally, we have the Youth Golf at Pinewood Golf Course, which we work with their golf pro to
run, and they staff it as well as the Football Camp that is coordinated by the Varsity Football coach and
staffed with Varsity players. The Football Camp is a fundraiser for the Quarterback Club.
Fall Programming
We will begin the fall program in July. I believe we will have the traditional programs as well as some
new ones. I am going to continue with the adult fitness classes we added this past year and I'm looking
to add daytime offerings of some of our popular traditional programs. I believe this may be an untapped
market with daycares, stay at home parents or parents who work afternoon or evening shifts. We'll be
looking for new marketing opportunities for these programs since it's a new area for us.
