~; <br />i~ <br />CITY OF LA PORTE <br />INTER=OFFICE MEMORANDUM <br />APRIL 4, 1983 <br />• <br />T0: Stan Sherwood, Director Parks & Recreation <br />FROM: Tim Anderson, Recreation Superintendent <br />SUBJECT: Video Games <br />On January 12, 1983, we had four (4) video games placed in our <br />Recreation Centers by Puckett Music and Games, Inc. Two machines <br />were placed in the Northside Community Center and two machines in <br />Fairmont Park Recreation Center. The machines were put in the <br />buildings on a basis that Puckett Music and Games would take care <br />of all maintenance and collect the money. The money is being split <br />on a 50/50 basis of the gross collected, and our 50 percent is placed <br />into the Parks and Recreation Coca-Cola Account. <br />The two machines at Northside are accessible during the hours of <br />12:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., Monday through Friday and 12:00 - 5:00 p.m. <br />on Saturdays. Rozina Long and Daryl Hatter are both on duty at this <br />building. The two machines at Northside have brought in to this <br />date $245.00. <br />The two machines at Fairmont Park Recreation Center are accessible <br />during the same hours as Northside and are supervised by Kaye Tatum <br />and Cheryl Skarda. The two games to date have brought in $166.25. <br />We did have one game at this site that was not operable for <br />approximately three (3) weeks, making up for the difference in <br />revenue. <br />I feel parents would much rather have their children playing these <br />machines at a supervised recreation center than to be at a game room, <br />pool hall or local grocerty store with no supervision. I am attaching <br />copies of all receipts from money collected. <br />Attachment <br />
