MEMORANDUM
TO: Todd Hoffinan, Park and Recreation Director
FROM: .lerrv Ruegemer, Recreation Superintendent
DATE: March 20, 2001
SUB J: \Vest Hennepin Community Services Contract
On an annual basis, the (7it} of Chanhassen reviews the contract x~ ith West
l tennepin Community Services (WI ICS) to prox idc adaptix e recrcatic, r~
services. The city has been contracting with WI iCS since 1990 lbr these
services.
Staff has star,ed to see increased inqui;'es and participation in lhe programs
offered. The winter numbers xxcre not huge, but we did have participation in
programs sponsored bv WHCS. We alsu arranged tbr inclusion services !bt
three children to participate in g3mnastics, ice skating, and basketball. I have
ah'eadv had conversations with two difl~renl fim~ilies to Provide inclusion
ser¥ices fi)r lheir children tbr spring aclivilies.
The parents I have had conversations with have been thrilled that these special
inclusion services are available for their children to participate in activities
with their siblings and friends. 1 predict our nul'rfl:~ers will increase as people
participate and with word of mouth and constant advertising. We are
definitely picking up momentum. It makes sense that the majority of our
participation level has been with children and not adults. We are such a
young community and as our population base continues to age, our numbers
will increase in the adult categories.
Noxv that I'n'l the main contact and responsible tbr arranging the inclusion
services, I have seen first hand that we are making a difl'erence in these
children's lives. They feel so good about themselves that they are able to
participate just like everyone else.
RECOMMENDATION
It is staff's recommendation that the Park and Recreation Commission
approve the 2001 contract with WHCS to provide adaptive recreation services
for children and adults with developmental disabilities. The contract amount
is $2727.00 and this amount has been budgeted in the 2001 recreation budget.
