Welcome to 2017!
It's a new year and Island Rec has been as busy as ever, which means that we are as well! Families and Neighbors Support Island Rec (FANS) just released it's latest brochure in our continuing effort to raise funds and awareness of how valuable Island Rec is to our community.
Each year, FANS raises money for Island Rec which is used to keep programming free or affordable for everyone through sponsorship, scholarships, and reduced costs. We encourage you to check out the FANS Fund scholarship program, available through the Island Rec office for families that need assistance with Island Rec's programming, but who do not qualify for the school's Free and Reduced Lunch Program. Please help us spread the word among families that will benefit from this assistance by liking this page if you are a Facebook user or just telling your friends. Your contribution also allows Island Rec to experiment with new programming from time to time. Did you know that Island Rec's successful summer series Movies in the Park was only made possible through FANS donations? All of Island Rec's programs are self supporting, so it is difficult to experiment with new programming without sacrificing existing programs unless there is an alternative source of income. Your donation through our 501(c)3 organization will help provide 120 Learn to Swim scholarships this year, as one example. In addition, Island Rec brings our community together, by stepping up to the plate each time there's been a need, from giving our Trails Committee an umbrella to work under, to creating after school programs, to funding the high school athletics programs. FANS is here to allow those that can to show their support and keep Island Rec thriving! Thank you for your support!! Please consider joining our FANS Club (or renewing your membership) – you truly makes a difference, because Island Rec makes a difference. |
Please help us thank our Professional FANS!!
