57 <br /> Report of the Recreation Committee <br /> To the honorable. Board of Selectmen <br /> Mashpee, Massachusetts <br /> Gentlemen & Madam: <br /> We hereby submit our report of Recreational activities <br /> for the year ending December 31, 1955. Following is a list <br /> of expenditures made in the past year: <br /> Appropriation 1955 $300.00 <br /> Expenditures: <br /> Sports Equipment $103.50 <br /> Baseball Field Maintenance 16.50 <br /> Record Player, amplifier &Speaker 169.95 <br /> Total Expenditure $289.95 <br /> Balance in Acct. $10.05 <br /> As you may notice, the account was left with a small <br /> balance, which should not, however, be interpreted to mean <br /> that the annual appropriation of $300.00 was in excess of what <br /> is needed. This past year our committee spent much time <br /> discussing plans for a broader program which more age <br /> groups could participate in. There has been, in the past, a <br /> concentrated effort on baseball and basketball. These sports <br /> tend to exclude our teen age boys ranging from twelve to <br /> sixteen years of age and our teen age girls. In view of the <br /> extremely limited recreation facilities in the town, we would <br /> like the opportunity to expand our program and a favor- <br /> able vote by the town to grant additional funds to this <br /> account will make this possible. <br /> We wish to express our appreciation to the Board of <br /> Selectmen for their interest in our function. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> MAURICE P. OAKLEY <br /> FREDERICK POCKNETT <br /> KENNETH TOBEL <br />
