Little, Director <br />Cabarrus County Parks and Recreation Department <br /> <br />1991-92 Annual Report <br /> <br /> On behalf of the Cabarrus County Parks, Recreation and <br />Property Maintenance Department, I would like to present with pride <br />the Annual Report for Fiscal Year 1991-92. <br /> <br /> This Annual Report will highlight the comprehensive and <br />diverse parks and recreation programs offered to all residents of <br />Cabarrus County by our Department. The role of the Cabarrus County <br />Parks and Recreation Department is to provide an umbrella of <br />services and to meet the needs for facilities and programs which <br />are not currently being provided by other agencies. In seeking the <br />best method for providing comprehensive recreation program services <br />to all residents of Cabarrus County, the basic approach is to <br />coordinate to the extent possible all program services and to <br />recognize the important role played by each agency to provide the <br />best potential for service. Cabarrus County has close coordination <br />between Concord Parks and Recreation Department, Cannon Memorial <br />YMCA, Cabarrus Arts Council, Volunteer Athletic organizations, ARC, <br />Senior Citizens organizations, and many other sponsoring groups. <br /> <br /> As noted in this Annual Report, the Recreation Programs and <br />Park facilities have experienced a tremendous growth in the last <br />several years. The 1991-92 year was not an exception to this <br />continual large growth with approximately 22% increase in one year <br />for Recreation Programs and Park participants. An example of this <br />growth is in the area of total Parks and Recreation participation <br />of 96,710 in 1983-84 compared to 260,242 in 1991-92. This huge <br />169% increase in Department Services over an nine year period or an <br />average 19% per year shows a good example of the demand of quality <br />recreation opportunities by the general public. <br /> <br /> We wish to express our appreciation for the support and <br />assistance given our department by the Cabarrus County Board of <br />Commissioners, Cabarrus County Manager, Cabarrus County Parks and <br />Recreation Commission and the public in general. <br /> <br /> <br />
