Ms. Bradbury highlighted some of the <br /> unique offerings this season. <br /> With the formation of the new park, activities both recreational and non-recreational have increased <br /> substantially. A popular program generated by the Recreation Department was the Junior Police <br /> Academy comprised of children between the ages of six to twelve. The program interacted with the <br /> Mashpee Police Department and was a very positive:experience for the younger aged children. <br /> The youth soccer developmental program attracted an estimated fifty children this season. Volunteer <br /> support brought a lot of enrichment to the program. The Division of Fisheries and Wildlife <br /> also provided an instructional fresh water fishing program, both were offered at no charge. <br /> Ms. Bradbury indicated that Tuesday will mark the sixth community concert series in the park made <br /> available through grant funding offered by the Mashpee Cultural Council and the Arts Foundation. <br /> With free access,the concert program has been well attended. <br />
