Rec center sets record for membership sales

    The Carbon Valley Recreation Center had a record month in annual membership sales as well program attendance. It seems like all the new programs that the facility is offering for both adults and children are a hit. Everyone loves the new “Rec Buc” program. It is always exciting to start to programs and benefits to help make the Carbon Valley Recreation Center an even better place to visit on a daily basis. All the staff hopes this trend continues throughout 2012.
    The recreation center staff is working on a community survey with the help of the city of Dacono and towns of Frederick and Firestone. We hope to have the survey out to the public in early April. All of us hope that we receive some good input on how the recreation district can improve when it comes to the growing recreation needs in our community.
    The district will also be holding a mail ballot election for three board of directors’ seats as well as some property inclusions that were missed over the years. Information how to run for the board will be in the local newspaper, as well as on the district’s website, March 15.
    Also coming soon, the district will be changing the computer system so please bear with us when the time comes. Staff is very excited about this new software. When it is installed, there will be many programs to register for online.
    New cardio equipment has also been ordered and will be delivered sometime the week of March 12. Another great reason to keep that new year’s resolution going at the Carbon Valley Recreation Center.
