The
Port Jervis Recreation Department’s function is to provide the
community with recreational and healthy activities for all age
groups. The Director of Recreation advises the Recreation
Commission, Common Council, and Mayor on all activities that are
taking place and on future recreational programs. It is the
Director’s job to keep the City of Port Jervis updated with new
recreational technology and new programming as we head into the
21st Century.
The Recreation Department
oversees the city’s playgrounds and parks, the municipal beach
(West End Beach) and the Youth Community/Center. West End Beach
is located on the beautiful Delaware River and is supervised by
certified lifeguards. The Youth Community Center, located at 134
Pike Street opened year round, provides our youth with
after-school-activities as well as plenty of summer programming.
The Director works closely with all other city
departments, the Port Jervis School District and county agencies
in an effort to improve the quality of life for the community. |
