RecreationandParkCommission | 2012-01-11 | 6 | 7. REPORTS FROM RECREATION COMMISSION AND RECREATION AND PARK DIRECTOR A. Park Division B. Recreation Division C. Mastick Senior Center D. Other Reports and Announcements Director Lillard noted that the activity reports were in each member's folder. All the holiday programs were big successes. Breakfast with Santa had 150 participants and most of the camps were full. The Elks Hoop Shoot was held the previous Friday night at the Alameda Point Gym. Junior Warriors basketball will be starting up the following week, also at the gym. The gym is in constant use this time of the year from 3 pm-10 pm almost every day, and on weekends all the time. All the revenue generated there goes back into upkeep of the facility. The floors and restrooms have been re-done in the last couple years, so it's slowly coming around. There was a problem at Krusi Park when someone drove through the fence on Christmas Eve, drove around inside the park for awhile, then somehow got out. Commissioner Brown made a brief comment about the work at the Mastick Senior Center. The offices have just been renovated through funds raised by their Bingo program and sales in their thrift shop. The thrift shop is doing phenomenally well, and Bingo, which used to be the leader, is now the follower. They have been able to raise enough money to refurbish the front lobby, and the entire facility as well as the office is beautiful. Brown thanked Jackie Krause, Senior Center Manager. Director Lillard mentioned that Mastick did just receive a large bequest from William "Bill" Whittier, but none of that was used towards the renovations. Chair Restagno asked what the status was of recruiting to fill Director Lillard's position. Lillard responded that they have not yet started the hiring process. Commissioner Brown gave a final thank-you to Patrick Russi, Recreation Services Supervisor. She said the programs that were put on by his staff in the department over the holidays were incredibly well-done. 8. STATUS REPORT ON ONGOING PROJECTS 9. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS, GENERAL 10.
