Director's Desk ~ Frank Carson, Recreation Supervisor 111 ~~: ~~ , ~; ~~~ Being grateful to be open and offering public services is f-.~~~ ~":.; something I feel intrinsically everyday I walk into any ', Chula Vista recreational facility. A year ago, I would not have been satisfied with my current performance at work. It was hard for me to accept making mistakes and not meeting public demands of services I offered. Nowadays, with all of the budget reductions and responsibilities of multiple facilities and programs, I have to accept that I will not meet all the expectations placed upon me. My goal would be to have at least one full-time staff person at every recreation facility to best meet the needs of the community. Hopefully, sooner rather than later we can attain this goal to best service you. Scripps Health Talks Monday, May 9 at I 0:00 AM Presented by the Scripps Family Residency Program.
