General Comments: We schedule and offer 1-4 resource programs per catalog, covering different topics <br />with a variety of presenters. <br />We have a Programs Committee that meets before each catalog cycle and they mostly bring ideas for <br />Day Trips, but also can talk on other programs as well. We also use ideas that our participants write on <br />surveys. <br />Aquatics <br />What is working <br />Group and private swim lessons. <br />o Important highlight is that we have met 2024 swim lesson demand. Waitlists are <br />contacted, new classes created due to proper instructor staffing, increase in private <br />swim lesson capacity. <br />- Community CPR classes <br />o Consistently full, meet an internal demand to have trained employees and external <br />demand from citizens <br />- Lifeguard training <br />- Adult swim lessons <br />o These are very popular and always full <br />o Demand is not being met, there is a significant need for adult swim classes above what <br />we are able to currently provide. The problem is the pool space required to effectively <br />teach them and the limited time windows that work for the demographic. <br />- Youth water polo <br />o Very excited about this program we are developing. Water polo class is growing and we <br />are looking to launch a program more like team tennis. We have the skill in house and <br />the demand from the public. We would be the only municipality in the state with an <br />active water polo program. <br />What is lagging <br />- No decline in aquatics programming. Facility use by the public this summer is down from what <br />we expected, especially given how busy we were in the winter and spring. <br />Memory Square open swim is number have been more of pre -renovation numbers. <br />Contract programs <br />- We have grown the contracted programs to utilize pool space and generate extra revenue. A <br />few of the contracts have been in the last few years and others have been for decades. <br />o Masters Swim has grown and continues to have a strong attendance at noon every <br />Mon,Wed,Fri <br />o Riptide Swim Team has been utilizing 3 lanes in the main pool on weekends during our <br />typical small demand times. <br />o Monarch Boys and Girls Swim Team have utilized the main pool for the last hour in <br />October- May. <br />o Dolphins Swim Team continues to use the Recreation Center for clinics during the fall <br />and winter, and Memory Square for their summer league meets and practices. <br />Special Events <br />- Glow Party (February) <br />
