BA KGROU DIJ U TI F I TI N:
As the recreation program grocers so does the need for staffing at all levels. We have hired
Recreation urogram Lead positions to run such programs as Tiny Tot Time, Pars & Recreation
Days at the Holiday Inn hater Park, Soccer Clinics, and special events.
The Recreation Program Assistant position would be used to help the Recreation Program Lead
run the class when the class level reaches a certain point. Staff monitors these levels, and when
the levels reach a certain point that adding a program assistant would be paid for through
registration fees City staff would then hire a program assistant to help with the program.
The difference between a program assistant and a program lead is their responsibility and
experience. O ar Recreation tion Program Lead staff are paid between $12.00-$14.00 per hour and
are hired to run programs and are also responsible for helping with program content and
overall supervision of that program. Recreation Program Assistant staff are paid between
$7.25-$9.:00 per hour and are hired toassist the program lead with program implementation.
Both positions are figured into the program costs along with supplies and other miscellaneous
expenses.
