New Eligibility & Rate Schedule For Community Center
"Family Fun For Everyone"
through expanded recreational op-portunities
twelve months of the
year is the objective of the Her-shey
Community Center. Profes-sional
leadership in excellent fa-eilitie3
has been a trademark of
the Center for years to those par-ticipating
in the many activities
which have been offered.
While the past has reflected suc-cessful
and memorable service,
the Center is continually striving
to provide better services. There
have been recent additions to the
full-time and part-time staff,
which have made possible the in.
creased program opportunities that
will be available this summer.
Major improvements to existing
facilities have been underway for
three months and will continue
into the fall. These improvements
are for the sole purpose of being
able to ,expand the program and
services to the community. Loom-ing
large upon the scene along
Cocoa Avenue is an addition to the
Hershey Community Center - The
Cocoa Avenue Plaza - which will
be dedicated September 14, 1963.
This new addition plus the im-provements
to the Community
Center will provide, for example,
far superior accommodations for
the recreational and Girl Scouting
activities currently being held in
the Women's Building.
The Hershey Community Center
is on the move, and is involved
in the largest program of expan-sion
in its history. The Center cur-rently
,operates the Community
Center, the Juvenile Golf Course,
the Women's Building, and the
Community Camp. The improve-ments
to facilities, the increases
to our staff, and the addition of
the Cocoa Avenue Plaza combine
to provide one of the finest com-munity
recreational environments
in the country. The fine facilities
we have at our disposal have been
given to the community by Milton
S. Hershey and subsequently
through the Hershey Companies.
In the past, the costs of operat-ing
the facilities and underwriting
program expenses have been
shared in by the participants. The
expanded program including the
Cocoa Avenue Plaza, other facility
improvements, and additional staff
- will, of course, increase these
costs. The new rate schedule will
be based on a calendar year. The
"Required" rate will include the
use of all facilities except the Juv-enile
Golf Course and the Cocoa
Avenue Plaza Tennis Courts. Also,
the new rate schedule will include
all program functions with the ex-ception
of certain adult special-interest
activities Of above-average
leadership and/or material costs.
For the convenience of our patrons,
rates Will be billed' quarterly, the
effective date of the new schedule
will be announced later. Junior
College students who do not take
out the normal privilege card will
be billed separately in conjunction
with their matriculation.
In reviewing the rate schedule,
first find the category which ap-plies
to you concerning your em-ployment
status. (It is necessary
that one of the parents of the
family be a full-time employee of
the Hershey Interests to use the

to individual and family rates.
A youth who is employed full-time
by the Hershey Estates but whose
parents are employed elsewhere
may use the "Special Rate" cate-gory
for himself, hut others of
the family will be required to use
the "Regular Rate" rates. Non-
Hershey employees should use the
"Regular Rate" category.) Sec-ondly,
it is possible and economic-ally
advantageous if all members
of • the family desire privilege
cards to use the family rates. A
family is defined as parents, (par-ent,
if spouse is deceased or sep-arated)
plus all unmarried chil-dren,
ages 8-20, living at home.
(Optional for unmarried children
21-25 attending college.) If all
members of the family do not de-sire
privileges of the Center, then
the, singles rates should be used
in the appropriate category and
for the options desired - Golf and
Tennis (Cocoa Avenue Plaza
Courts) are additional options.
Example:
Father is employed by Hershey Chocolate
Corporation with one child twelve years old,
one child fifteen years old, and all, including
he and his wife, wont to take advantage of
the facilities and activities of the Hershey
Community Center. Only the 12 year old de-sires
to play golf regularly.
