ITEM EXPLANATION: On September 26, 2007, the City of Carlsbad hosted a special Recognition Day in honor of the opening of The Crossings at Carlsbad. As part of the event, a silent auction was held to benefit, support, and raise awareness for the Recreation Department's Opportunity Grants program. The Opportunity Grants program was designed to contribute to the future growth, well being and development of Carlsbad's youth through participation in Recreation Department programs. By awarding opportunity grants to deserving Carlsbad families, the Recreation Department sought to encourage the development of positive self-esteem and social responsibility, decrease the occurrence of juvenile crimes and promote overall physical fitness and health, thereby creating a strong and safe community. The many generous individuals and companies who contributed to the Opportunity Grants Silent Auction (Exhibit 1) will enable the Recreation Department to continue to provide financial assistance to children from low income families who could not otherwise afford to participate in recreation programming. FISCAL IMPACT: Opportunity Grants Silent Auction cash donations totaled $4,050, and proceeds from the silent auction totaled $9,065. A total of $13,115 has been deposited into the Recreation Department's Opportunity Grants account. EXHIBITS: 1.
