Because we tend to over-extend <br /> our zest for programming, many evening and weekend hours are consumed for <br /> supervision and program evaluation. Staff is currently at the limit in programming. <br /> Any new program additions will necessitate the elimination of other programs. <br /> There is a natural limitation in the Athletic Coordinator's position which limits the <br /> amount of programming. That limitation is space and facilities. Examples include: <br /> limited adult gymnasium space for basketball and volleyball activities, limited <br /> _41“ I. • q+ 9. • :. •II• -8 • - • • - ■ - .. ■.

The <br /> time from November to March is spent in planning, making tree orders, arranging tree <br /> contracts, compiling year-end reports and billings for tree removals. A forestry <br /> assistant works Monday through Friday, April - October, eight hours per day. This <br /> person performs maintenance tasks such as mulching, weeding, watering, planting, <br /> mowing and trimming plants, bushes, trees, flowers and landscaping. <br /> Any additional Senior Citizen programming other than senior exercise, senior trips and <br /> • senior club meetings would require additional staffing hours. <br />
