In the fall of 2020, Pasco County Board of County Commissioners will be presented the option of charging a fee for usage of our public parks and athletic fields by the Pasco County Parks and Recreation Department. This fee will cause recreation leagues, such as Little Leagues, Dixie Leagues, Babe Ruth, etc., to start having to pay to use the fields.  Since all of these programs are ran by volunteers on sponsorship money, the fees will have to be offset to the children who participate in these programs, which are estimated to increase their fees up to $25 per participant. This will cause the enrollments in these community youth organizations to diminish and put more kids without extracurricular activities because they simply cannot afford to participate or alternatively, it could shut these programs down because they cannot afford to pay the hefty registration fees being presented. We need your help in getting them to vote no!
