Very disappointed in the Rec. My kids have played sports with them for years and each season when we go to register them the prices have yet again increased. Seems as though each season they raise the registration fee. This is very discouraging because with our economy struggling it puts more stress on parents to keep their children involved in sports, especially if you have more than one child. Got to take out a loan to sign a couple kids up for sports not to mention buying their shoes, uniforms, equipment.

It is not the Recreation Department's fault. The blame les with the county commissioners who we elect who keep cutting the amount of money the Recreation Department gets as well as not giving necessary pay raises to police officers and other oounty employees, not providing needed staffing for the jail, etc.
