This data should help to define and clarify both the leadership and management roles that Friends of Children, Inc./MAD DADS play with relationship to the successful operation of Modello Park. I. MAJOR PROGRAM INITIeTryF A. After-School Activity Club Targets elementary school children ages 5 to 12,generally from Collins Elementary Provides homework assistance, academic tutoring,drug prevention activities and supervised recreational play. Admission is free, although parents have agreed to pay a $2.00 per week assessment to help provide snacks and special activity items. Currently enrolls 75 children with a waiting list of 20. Three years ago this program enrolled only 12 children. We are currently at maximum capacity, however, additional staff and resources could allow us to increase enrollment to 100. This is a MAD DADS'program initiative with support from parks personnel. B. Girl Scouts Troop 26 was formerly organized in the summer of 1998 and currently enrolls 20 girls. Program will likely bring some form of case management services,through Scout central office, focusing on meeting the needs of scouts and their families. Outside of the traditional Girl Scout activities this troop will be undertaking many special projects. Two initiatives are planned for implementation later this winter or early spring. First, we have requested and received from the Girl Scouts central office a small grant to pay the expenses for the"Senior's Garden". Last year the Park's Department bore this expense. This spring's garden will be larger,and will involve The Girl Scouts assisting the seniros in its care and maintenance. Second, the Girls Scouts planned to take responsibility for operating the Modello park concession stand. This activity will be conducted under the supervision of adult volunteers from the community and the proceeds will be used to benefit the emerging team sports programs at the park, The girls will learn valuable business and management skills. This program is a MAD DADS initiative with community volunteer support C. SPORTS RECREA110N AND ATRi EDC ACTrc> TIE 1. _ wimmin (free swim and lessons in place,additional programs such as Jr. Life Guard, Water Aerobics, and a competition swim team could be developed) Program needs major promotional boost and should probably seek to develop partnership and/or cooperative relationshis with school board and YMCA. f L r, f _t / 2. 3-0-3 and other basketball (league potential, requires both formal park and neighborhood support) 3. ffig football (intermittent league involvement, needs support,great interests in full contact version but needs regulation size field--possible next year with Optimists?) This year our teams were among the top performers in the county,making to the finals. 4. Baseball (formerly involved in RBI League,annual Bahamas excursion only consistently organized effort, recent BSO/MAD DADS partnership was abandoned due to low level of interest and level of competition in established league) 5. T DRL1(organized last season by MAD DADS in conjunction with HIDTA Mentor/ Coach. Our teams became involved in a county sponsored league making it to the play-offs. The program was designed to help initiate our kids into the fundamentals of the games and to provide a logical progression for the development their skills, and interests in the sport. 6. SewinSenior c(program is going well, participation levels can be improved but, group needs transportation and a small budget to assist with projects)A major drive t to increase membership is planned got the spring of 1999. 7. Table Games and Indoor Rec[Pational A twit' c(high levels of participation, need to replace pool table. 8. Adult Exucise and Fitness Progrgm(recently implemented by MAD DADS and Memorial Hospital for seniors. This program could grow and benefit by having a trained instructor from Dania's recreation department since Memorial will pull out soon. 9. EXEk Conc scion Stand (under utilized but, has great potential for near full time use. Will require renegotiation of Red Birds arrangement and acquisition of equipment) We are proposing that our Girl Scout Troop be allowed to operate the facility as a means to raise funds for the emerging competition and team sports programs. A List of the equipment and improvements required in the facility have been forwarded to the park's facility personnel. 10. Emerging or proposed programs include: adult softball, soccer, yoga, weight lifting a girls drill and cheerleading team. In addition,plans are in the works to convert the existing covered patio behind the recreation building into enclosed space. The proposed use for this area is a weight and body building facility and storage room. Towards this end MAD DADS has secured the donation of four major pieces of commercial quality body building equipment. This equipment is valued at over $2,500.00. When completed the facility is aimed at the teen and young adult user. The project was proposed by youth from the area during dialogue with members of Dania Beach City Commission. It is anticipated that it will help to provide an alter- native to idleness and hanging-out on the streets,which many teens associate with the reasons many youth make the transition to drug dealing. D. HIDTA Mentor/Tutor/Coach Youth Coalition and Crime Prevention Initiatives A mobilization of teens between the ages of 13 and 17 years old undertaken primarily by the HIDTA funded position of Mentor/Tutor/Coach. Designed to recruit and f L t�- r, 7 coordinate teens for activities that are an alternative to idleness, delinquency and crime. Teens are channeled or referred into park programs as well as other programs, jobs and volunteer activities. Teens recruited under this program served as assistant coaches for the T-ball program,aids at cultural and community events and occasionally as tutors for younger children. During the fall of 1998 12 of these teens were recruited to participate in an initiative by Memorial Hospital to inform Dania residents about the Healthy Kids insurance program. Their effort provided an incentive for the hospital to provide equipment and technical support to the ICE Cube neighborhood technology center. The young people were paid $7.00 and hour for their time. In January 1999 fourteen additional teens from the Modello Park area will participate in a week-end,HIDTA sponsored, youth leadership camp. Activities such as those outlined above are specifically responsible for helping many teens develop the self-esteem, and motivation to stay in school and improve their grades. We monitored the academic performance of more than 40 area teens during the year. Not one of these youth dropped out of school and more than half improved their grade point average in at least one subject. One of our graduating seniors,Ms Veronica Gidron, was recommended by MAD DADS,for consideration in the annual Sheriff's STAR scholarship competition. We are happy and proud to announce that she won a two scholarship to Broward Community College. MAD DADS directly supervises and coordinates the activities of the HIDTA program.. D. Civic,Cultural and Community Mobilization Activity The park is the meeting place for at least three neighborhood associations--Byrd Point Homeowners, The Concerned Citizens of Modello and Modello Park Steering Committee, MAD DADS is a major force and factor in helping to coordinate these activities. With the funding of the Department of Juvenile Justice Community Involvement project,MAD DADS will be stepping up its support of these groups with The specific objective of helping them to take greater ownership and responsibility for problem solving in the neighborhood. The DJJ project will add two additional staff persons to the overall roster and will also Fall under the general management responsibility of MAD DADS. The project will be housed in the ICE Cube. Over the past two years the park has become home to more than eight major cultural or community mobilization functions including last year's Thanksgiving in the Park, which fed more than 400 people,Red Ribbon Celebration, African Heritage and Back To School Wellness Festivals. Combined, these events attract over 3000 users to the parka year. Each of these events are expected to continue this year with Increased levels of participation both from within and outside of the area. The Save Our Communities Street Revival and Crusade a monthly MAD DAD/faith communities initiative was implemented in May of 1998 and attracts about 200 People to the park on the fourth Saturday of each month. MAD DADS organized and co-sponsors this event as a means of attracting church support for activities hers in the Park. r s / E. The ICE Cube(Institute for Community Empowerment) Scheduled to began full time operation in January 1999, this new facility will easily be the second most powerful tool, behind the sports and recreational activities, available to help address the risk factors impacting youth in northwest Dania. At its core the ICE Cube will be a unique neighborhood-based computer center. Ultimately it will be the epi-center of a plethora of individual, family and community development enrichment services driven by a core of information technology and skills. For example,the DJJ funded Community Involvement project awarded to the City and a HUD funded,technical assistance initiative awarded to Florida Atlantic University will be operated in Dania through the ICE Cube. 'these projects will offer an array of services including employment training related to WAGES recipients,micro-business training and social service referrals. The ICE Cube was conceived by and is to be managed by MAD DADS. The City, HIDTA, BSO and Memorial Hospital are contributors to the project. Several local businesses are also expected to make major contributions to the ICE Cube in 1999. F. The Optimist Club/MAD DADS Street Patrol Plans to organize a Modello Park based Optimist Club during 1999 have been greatly enhanced by an announcement from BSO, that the Sheriff's Office would be contributing up to$40,000 in equipment to the park in support of football program. The proposed Northwest Dania Beach Optimist Club, was developed with input from MAD DADS. The group will work with BSO in developing a football league and other sports/academic programs at Modello Park. A major reason for organizing the Optimist Club is that its membership would come from residents in the area. Through this mechanism we are able to develop the means to organize and encourage volunteering and local responsibility for working with youth. It appears to us that this strategy is working since more than twenty adults have signed pledges to help organize the new club. A secondary benefit of this effort is that considerable interest has been expressed by members of this group in seeing the return of MAD DADS Street Patrols to the streets of Dania. An agreement was therefore entered into undertake a joint recruitment effort and to constitute a new MAD DADS Street Patrol unit concurrent with the launching of the Optimist Club. H. ACHIEVEMENT OF PROGRAM GOALS AND OBJECTIVES In our agreement with City of Dania in 1997/98 we established a series of objectives that we agreed to work towards. To the best of our ability we have been able to demonstrate and, I and happy to say that we have achieved each of these objectives. In general our goal was to improve programs, services and use of the park as a neighborhood facility while also helping to reduce crime and especially delinquency in the area. We have documented in periodic month reports to the parks department that Modello Park is now the most popularly used facility among the City's three neighborhood park units. In the first three months of this fiscal period we recorded consumer demand for services here at a high of 5,820 people in October to a low of 3,310 users in the month of December 1998(see attached Park Facility Usage Logs for 10/98, 11/98& 12/98). These t f L F r 7 figures equate to an average daily patronage of more than 150 men, women and children at Modello Park, or approximately 78 cents per day per patron charged against the $45,000 grant to MAD DADS. This 78 cents per patron is less than a third of the overall cost of goods and services spent at other facilities that do not have the patronage level achieved at Modello. In other words, even with the expense of the$45,000 grant to MAD DADS, the City appears to be making a larger per capita expenditure at other parks to serve a smaller population of users. It is also appropriate to mention, we believe, that our services extend far beyond the park itself, impacting the neighborhood and indeed all of Dania Beach. BSO District II reported, for example to HIDTA, that for the period that we participated in the partnership with them, that Part One crimes in the area, were down by 77%. Among the other five cities participating in the HIDTA Community Empowerment project our nearest competitor saw only 55% reduction in part one crimes, while the majority saw less than 35%reductions. Since Dania Beach's project was the only one to involve a community based organization, like MAD DADS, we believe he evidence is there to suggest that we were the primary force, if not the single most significant factor that help to generate the phenomenal reduction in crime in this area and set Dania Beach ahead of the other communities. Our ability and desire to work with BSO and local residents makes the difference.

Each of the groupings that appear on the chart represent primary staff responsibilities and assignments as well as major programmatic thrust. Each group displayed here has a variety of sub group and activities associated with it that demonstrate the emergence of the park as a center of community life. However, space would not permit this expansive a presentation. Together these program and service areas, on average, attract more than 150 residents a day into the park--excluding special cultural and community events. Since several new programs and services such as those of the Optimist, the ICE Cube and the new body building center are not yet fully functional we are anticipating exponential growth in the number of users of the park's facilities in just the next several months. It is interesting, and we believe,important to note that we also believe that Modello Park will begin to assume a regional like role in the near future, despite its small size. Many of the new services and programs we have brought on board attract the interests of a diverse and varied group of Danians and non Danians alike. For example. The ICE Cube's Microbusiness Class, sponsored with support from FAU, attracted eleven people to its opening session. Eight of these ten students are not from Dania. Participants came from as far away as Miami, Sunrise,Ft Lauderdale and Miramar. f r r 7 MAD DADS / MODELLO PARK STAFFING AND PROGRAM RESPONSIBILITY MATRIX FRIENDS OF CHILDREN Willie Myles, President MAD DADS Arlon Kennedy (Program Administrtor/Park Manager) Shenita Williams, Clerical Assistant Modello Park R Creation A tiviti c After-School Activily_db Mardie Holloway, Sports Coordinator Shaunta James, Youth Spec.
