Examples include but are not limited to the Rhody Festival, Concerts on the Dock, the Studio Tour, and the Port Townsend Kinetic Sculpture Race, or the Centrum Acoustic Blues Festival. Sporting Special Events Non-interscholastic, periodic events such as races, tournaments, contests, or meets with a sporting focus. Examples include but are not limited to the Ranger Run, the 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament, the Rat Island Regatta, or fishing tournaments. After-school Programs Regularly scheduled childcare, typically for ages pre-school to sixth grade that usually occurs at a dedicated facility, primarily so that the parents can work during the times before and after school. Programs usually take place in an enriched environment with adult supervision in which the child can pursue his personal goals such as homework, casual sports, or arts and crafts. Food is usually provided. Some afterschool programs include structured educational or recreational classes or activities. The typical age for afterschool programs is pre-school up to sixth grade. After sixth grade many children are either: considered old enough to be home alone (a high risk choice for middle school and high school ages); are enrolled in more structured activities like sports or clubs; or go to free drop in locations such as the library or the recreation center. After-school programs are sometimes subsidized for those who cannot pay a fee, are often seen as a ‘prevention’ measure in the public health community, and are often formed in partnership with the public schools. Cultural and Educational Special Interest Classes Non-sporting educational enrichment classes and activities in groups or one-on-one, taught by an expert, that usually occur on a regular basis such as piano lessons, photography class, writers workshop, language, voice lessons, dance, martial arts, woodworking etc. Classes are usually for a fee and are often focused on training or developing a specific skill or knowledge base. Sporting Special Interest Classes Sporting educational enrichment classes and activities such as swimming lessons, fencing lessons, sailing lessons, rowing lessons, or ski lessons. Such classes are often intended to overcome barriers to entry to a specific sport by safely orienting individuals to activities, equipment, facilities, while building needed skills. Recreational Sports Leagues Non-interscholastic team sports leagues with game rules that emphasize recreational, cooperative, non-competitive, and community values over competition. Examples of recreational game rules include equal play time, no score kept, no standings kept; rules that increase scoring by lowering defense and increasing offense such as no double team or no goal keeper; off sides allowed, no tournament play, no uniforms, no try-outs, coaches not allowed to choose players, awards for teamwork or cooperation, and so on. Examples include the co-ed recreational adult softball, and co-ed recreational children’s basketball and soccer. Interscholastic Sports Individual and team sports organized by schools. Usually starting in middle school, that follows the rules of their state athletic association for competition purposes. Rules are requirements are strict and competition is held as the main goal. In most schools, interscholastic sports also includes science and cultural competition such as, knowledge bowl, odyssey of the mind etc. Summer Day Camp A category of childcare designed to follow the ‘traditional camping model’, usually for younger children grades kindergarten to 5th grade, provided so that parents can work while children can enjoy the values of the summer season such as being outside, exploring, understanding nature, pursuing skill based activities and so forth. Usually there are a wide variety of structured and semi-structured educational activities in which the children have an element of choice. For many parents, summer day camp is a replacement for school. In many locations, summer day camp is highly subsidized and is seen as critical to the functioning of the family. Summer day camp is different from sports camps because it lasts all day, addresses a wide variety of the child’s needs, and is not focused on a specific skill. Swim Lessons, Aquatics Swim lessons and aquatics are given their own category in this inventory because they are so highly specialized, facility focused, and unique. Swim lessons usually prescribe to a specific curriculum, are based on levels, are taught by highly skilled and trained instructors in controlled environments. Swim lessons are unique because of the focus on safety and life long skills. Youth Competitive Club Sports Always organized in the private sector, competitive club sports for youth embrace competitive values and are available in almost every imaginable team or individual sport. Most common is baseball, football, and soccer. Competitive sports usually align themselves with district, state, and national associations that provide services such as rules, oversight and insurance. Examples are little league baseball, club soccer, and club football. Many competitive clubs focus on recreational values and development for younger players in order to have a pool of competitive players to draw from as the children get older. Teen Center Enriched, choice focused, casual, social, facility based child care for teens to drop in during high risk times usually before and after school, but also sometimes weekend nights and summers. Teen centers are seen as safe ‘hang-outs’ and they feature music, food, games, television, recreational pick up sports, casual mentorship, role modeling adults, and a low level of supervision. Teen centers often promote cultural or sporting events like climbing competitions, talent shows, or concerts. Teen centers are often created to prevent health and safety problems such as drug and alcohol use, teen pregnancy, etc. Teen centers usually do not require registration or fees. Examples include the teen center in the Chimacum Schools, the free drop in recreation program at the Jefferson County Recreation Center in Port Townsend. Free Drop in Recreation Making a recreational facility available for anyone to use during specific hours. Typical activities include ping pong, pool, foosball, gymnasium play, climbing wall, video games and the like. Families often participate together, friends might meet at the facility, and all ages are welcomed. Supervision is usually provided, but pre-registration is not required. Child Care Care for infants and very young children in a specially designed facility or by a private party in their home, usually for a fee, but often subsidized. Usually provided so that parents can work. Volunteer Special Interest Clubs Similar to a special interest class, except lead by a volunteer lay-person not a paid expert, and organized in a group setting. The club usually focuses on an activity, a project, an event, preparation for a contest etc. The leader provides guidance, facilitation, and support to help the club organize. Special interest clubs span a huge range of activities for youth and adults and they include the extension programs of the land grant universities like 4-H, school based clubs that are organized by teachers, and clubs focused on values such as religion or service. Mentorship Mentorship is partnering an adult with a child with the goal of forming a supportive relationship. The most common example is Big Brothers/Big Sisters of America. Often, but not always, it is implied that the child needs more positive adult support, advocacy, relationship, and mentorship in his or her life. Increasingly mentorship programs are facility based in public locations such as schools or churches. Health and Safety Programs Health and safety programs include a broad variety of services such as school nurses, police in schools, prevention curricula taught in schools, free clinics, nutritional programs, screening, education, free dental and health clinics and so on. They are included in this inventory because there are components of health and safety in many recreation programs. Special Recreation Programs Special recreation is a category of services with the common goal of helping people with special needs to find, adapt, and access recreational and leisure activities. Examples include competitive sports such as the Special Olympics, and recreational activities such as the special recreation club. Similar to educational integration that occurs in the public schools, a trend is recreational integration and inclusion of all people into existing programs. Inclusion is achieved by adaptation of rules and equipment, provision of special support, and assistance with access. Public Private Partnerships A public private partnership is created when a government owned resource (such as recreation center or athletic field) or government funds (such as tax revenues) are used by an organization in the private sector, to provide a service. Justifications for public private partnership include: the service is needed but unfilled by government, the service has broad community benefits, the service is efficient, the service is temporary, the service is flexible, the service requires expertise or equipment government does not have, or the partnership creates leverage for other benefits such as fundraising. Public private partnerships are almost always based on legal agreements such as leases, contracts for services, licenses, concession agreements, etc. Key component of modern public/private partnerships are performance standards and transparency both of which are needed to insure accountability to the general public. Examples of public private partnership in recreation include leasing of public land to little league sports , granting a license to build a horse park on public land, contracting with a landscape company to care for Memorial Field, giving city tax funds to the YMCA to provide childcare programs, or rent free use of a school building by a gymnastics team. Funding Source: Public Funding [PF] - Public funding includes public tax base dollars from federal, state, city, county, special tax districts and local sources. Funds come thorough congressional appropriation, state taxes or revenue sources and local taxes, assessments and fees. Membership [M] - Funds are secured from individual members through fees, membership dues, contributions and gifts and are used to operate facilities, services and programs primarily for the use by the members. These can include private clubs, foundations, associations, faith-based groups, scouting organizations and quasi-public organizations. Private [P] – Commercial businesses funded through fees and charges that provide programming and outdoor resource-based and user-oriented recreation in the private sector.
