About the Youth Activities Team - YAT

A bit about our Team

Our team was formed through the Fort Scott Visioning Process we are one of six teams in this process. We were asked to seek out activities that our Youth wanted in their community.

We conducted a random survey of Fort Scott Middle School, High School and FSCC students the results were:

Miniature Golf Course	140
Sand Volleyball	93
Tennis Courts	57
Batting Cages	119
Paint ball Facility	124
Aquatic Center	130
Walking/Running Trails	121
Racquet Ball/Hand Ball Courts	114
Skate Rink	103
Outdoor Basketball Courts	103
Skate Park	98
Shopping Mall	220

From the survey our committee looked at what we could accomplish and began the process. We hosted our first Back to School Block Party which was a huge success.

One of our major goals as a team: fund our projects through private donations and grant; no tax dollars.
