Project Description:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The City of Coral Springs is expanding its successful after-school program for students from the 4th grade and up, but particularly aimed at Middle School students.  The program consists of free outdoor recreation activities for children after school lets out for the day.  Because of the high demand for the program in the Castlewood Park serviced neighborhoods, and the desire to operate the programs for a number of consecutive hours, restroom facilities are required to support the duration of the activities and the number of participants.  The funds sought would complement the operating budget for these after-school programs by constructing the restroom facilities.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Services Provided/Benefit to State:

 

 

 

 

 

This project will include an additional resource for working parents and a positive approach to dealing with juvenile crime and riminal mischief during the peak after-school hours.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Measurable Outcome Anticipated:

 

 

 

 

 

The success of this program will be measured by the number of participants, which is expected to be substantial based on the popularity of the existing program.
