Collinsville Area Recreation District

10 Gateway Drive
618-346-7529

Goals And Objectives:

We believe that the criteria of a well-rounded community recreation program should be used, both as our general goal and also as the standards upon which we develop our individual activities and our total program.

Our programs should:

- Provide wholesome recreation for the entire family of all races and creeds.
- Keep the cost of programs within a reasonable price range, in order that all
   income levels of the District are able to afford programs.
- Provide a noncompetitive atmosphere where everyone has an equal
  chance to participate.
- Provide an even flow of activities year round.
- Serve all age groups.
- Provide comparable and appropriate opportunities for members of both
  sexes.
- Provide a reasonable balance between indoor and outdoor activities.
- Recognize varying levels of skill and ability, with emphasis on providing
  basic skills.
- Keep open lines of communication and good rapport with the School
  District and other nonprofit organizations that provide recreation services.
- Provide recreational programs and interests for all age groups and special
  populations, including the disabled and Senior Citizens.
- Offer participants a role in the planning and implementation of activities.
- Provide an effective means for people to indicate their recreation needs and
  interests, and to submit suggestions regarding programs.
- Be sensitive to changing conditions, interests, and needs of the people as
  evidenced by program changes from year to year.
