activities for those who prefer organized sports. “It is important for the citizens to know that we are here


to provide them with a service that will create many good memories for them and their children while at the same time offering opportunities for them to learn and be active,” said Ken Ayoub, who has 33 years of experience in the recreation field, the past 15 as Mount Pleasant recreation director. Te website, www.MtPleasantRec.com, is the access point to find information about recreation activities for


FOR ALL


all ages and interests. According to Ayoub, the site “will be presented to the residents of Mount Pleasant in a new and improved fashion in September. It offers the entire recreation program at your fingertips and a click of the mouse. Our entire 50-page program brochure is avail- able online through the website, thus not only offering the convenience of quick and easy access to information about all of our programs but helping us save paper by eventually printing fewer brochures.” “Our focus is to present the residents of Mount Pleasant with exceptional, comprehensive, yet sustainable and af- fordable recreation and leisure opportunities,” said Ayoub. Tere are six recreation locations in Mount Pleasant and more than 12,000 participants in the youth athletic program alone. Baseball, basketball, soccer, softball, volleyball and cheerleading are all open for children through the seasons. Te department also offers wres- tling, lacrosse and ultimate Frisbee, along with dance, art and fitness classes, tennis, Wii bowling and boat safety.
