How much has the Department of Parks and Recreation grown in the past decade?
The department has grown substantially. The biggest change has been the transformation from a seasonal department to a full-time department. This change has been made mostly because of the Summit Activities Center and Marne Creek. Because of the Fox Run Golf Course and the Summit Activities Center, we have hired an additional seven full-time employees. We have gone from 50-60 seasonal employees to over 200 throughout the department.
