President’s Vacation Week
There was a recent Facebook discussion about the perceived lack of day-time programming at the Recreation Department over the President’s Day vacation week (aka MA vacation). I’m not trying to add fuel to any fire, but thought I’d offer a quick reminder that when the Waterville Valley Elementary School is in session (as it was this holiday week and as it has been for years), WVRD is not allowed to schedule programming in the gym during school hours. In addition, WVRD offers an after-school program until 5 p.m. each day, which limits WVRD’s ability to offer family programming. During holiday weeks when the school is in session, WVRD schedules family and youth programming in the evening.
