When the courts <br /> are not being utilized by the school athletic teams,the courts are open to the public after school <br /> hours. The Recreation Department has a very active tennis academy for adults and youth. <br /> Local groups also frequent the courts. To schedule exclusive use of the courts,the DPW should <br /> be contacted. <br /> K.C. Coombs School Playground Project-,$91,000: <br /> With CPC funding improvements would be made to the K.C. Coombs School playground. The <br /> $100,500 project would provide for nature-themed climbing and balance structures to <br /> compliment the other playground equipment at the school. Ms. Laurent explained the proposed <br /> playground would is specifically designed for the older students and children at the school. <br /> To offset costs,the DPW would demolish the structure and the PTO would hold fund raisers to <br /> support the purchase and installation of a shade structure. The total CPC funding request is <br /> $91,000 for this project. <br /> During the school year children participating in the after school program and adjacent Boys and <br /> Girls Club would use the facility. In the summer months,the Mashpee Recreation Department <br /> uses the playground in the summer day camp program. The playground is also open to the <br /> public and with the existing athletic fields a lot of families tend to use this playground. <br /> The proposed playground equipment will replace a 20 plus year old climbing structure. It was <br /> noted the existing structure has broken components that are not to standard code. With the <br /> exception of the swings,the entire structure needs to be replaced. Through the competitive bid <br /> process an experienced contractor would be hired to complete the project. <br /> Ms. Laurent indicated the Coombs School playground is prioritized as the number one project <br />
