SUBJECT: Review of Tequesta Summer Youth Program
•
The Village of Tequesta has provided • a Summer Youth Program at
Tequesta Park since June 1974. The Program offered today is very
similar to the original program. The Youth Program is held
outdoors and youngsters have access to facilities such as tennis
courts , basketball courts, ball fields and playground equipment.
The pavilion at Tequesta Park is used during the Summer Program for
such activities as air-hockey, soccer ball, four-square, Nintendo
and a wide assortment of table games .
The Village provides one (1) full-time employee and two (2) part-
time employees to direct the summer activities for the older age
group. The employees assist youngsters in learning new games ,
activities, organizing special events , and team activities for
baseball, basketball and volleyball. The services are provided
free of charge to all area youngsters between the ages of (8) eight
and (17) seventeen. The Program is offered Monday through Friday
from 10:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. for a five week period.
For ages five (5) through seven (7) , the Village offers six two
hour classes each week that includes such activities as arts and
crafts, playground time, refreshments , special events and table
games . Two part-time employees supervise this program for the
Village.

DATE: May 6 , 1992
SUBJECT: Recommendation for YMCA to be Sole Provider of
Summer Youth Program for the Village of Tequesta
Although the Village has provided a Summer Youth Program since
1974 , the popularity of the Program has steadily declined over the
past five years . During the past two Summer Programs , only 76
Tequesta youngsters have signed up each year for this Program.
This is less than 15% of the 531 Tequesta youngsters who are
between the ages of five and seventeen . Our ' daily attendance for
all summer activities at Tequesta Park has declined by more than
50% since 1987 .
One of the reasons for this decline is the fact that more families
have two adult members working and this requires full time
supervision for their children. To provide such a service, the .
Village would need an air conditioned facility that would remain
open from 7 : 00 A.M. to approximately 6 : 00 P .M. The expense of such
a Program is beyond the means of most small communities and the
Village is fortunate that a YMCA has come forward to offer this
service .
After comparing our Summer Program at Tequesta Park with the
activities offered by the YMCA; I am recommending that the Village
stop providing a Summer Program and assist the . YMCA in their
Program at the .JTJC.
I make this recommendation due to the following reasons :
• 1) The YMCA . is a full .time professional organization that can
• provide services our youngsters could not receive in a
Village Summer Program.
•
2) The YMCA has access to the air conditioned JTJC facility and
will not have to endure the, heat and rain often encountered
in an outdoor Summer Program.

•
3) • The YMCA Summer Program will, educate our youngsters on the
many additional services available to YMCA members .
4 ) The YMCA Summer Program may lead to a successful year round
prograwTing of the JTJC .
•
5) I have known Les MC Whorther , Executive Director, YMCA, for
over ten years and I believe his experience and leadership
can make this Program a success .
The Village has budgeted $5, 200 for our Summer Youth Program and I
believe these funds should be made available to the YMCA in their
endeavors to provide quality youth activities . The opportunity of
having the YMCA in the Village may not come again , and : believe
the Village should make every effort to make their Summer Youth
Program a success .
