The Cultural & Human Services Department hosted the city’s annual Family Fun Day celebration on Saturday, May 3rd, at Town Center Park. This year, the City joined forces with Radio Disney AM 990 to make it a one-of-a-kind event with more fun than ever. An estimated 500 big and little people joined in on the FREE family-fun-filled day of games, rides, Mothers Day-themed crafts, face painting, and more.
During the event, the Athletics Division, coordinated by Matthew High, presented awards to participants of the city’s recreational basketball and cheerleading program, as well as the travel soccer program. The coaches for the various sports received awards as well, along with a trophy for “Coach of the Year” to our soccer coach, Grant Grimsley, who has done a superb job coaching the travel soccer team, and has been coaching with the city for over a year.
The season for these recreational programs has come to an end, but the Cultural & Human Services Department is now offering Beach Volleyball (instructional) for children ages 5 thru 13. This program will be held out on the beach at Samson Oceanfront Park (174th and Collins Avenue). The program started May 5th, and there are limited spots available so, if you are interested, call 305.792.1706 now!
