Summary

Parks staff reported $62,600 in June golf revenue and higher-than-expected round counts; Athletic Director Brett Cahold announced fall youth sports registration dates, camp and practice schedules, and upcoming family and adult events at Crystal Beach.

Roger presented the golf report, telling the group that June daily-fee receipts were $62,600 and that round counts in June exceeded his forecast for the year. He said season-pass rounds are holding near expected levels and that year-to-date metrics show growth versus last year despite a late-season start.

Athletic Director Brett Cahold reviewed the close of spring baseball and softball and announced new and ongoing youth opportunities. Brett said fall ball registration opens July 16 (paper and online options) and that registration deadlines were adjusted to give families more time: he advised the board that registration closing will be extended to Aug. 17 and that the first official practice date is now July 29. Brett also described football options for 3rd–6th graders, youth cheer and volleyball plans, and adult open-gym volleyball every Friday.

Brett highlighted partner programs that expand access: Bethany Legacy Foundation has used more than 1,100 punch-card admissions and Jane's Kids nearly 190, indicating increased partner-supported access compared with last year. He also reminded the public of Family Night (July 10, family pack option) and Adult Night (July 24, includes one adult beverage with admission).

No policy or fee changes were adopted at the meeting; Brett said staff will continue registration and outreach work and will provide final registration totals in a future packet.
