The Bellevue Recreation Department would like to thank a few people this month for their work and dedication. The Bellevue Recreation Department oversees three historic sites: Old Presbyterian Church, Log Cabin, and Fontenelle Bank. In the month of April, our tour guides June Ethridge and Lori Perl educated all fourth graders in Bellevue Public School about the history of Bellevue and these historic sites.
We would also like to give a shoutout to Bellevue East Football and Soccer Programs for helping the Bellevue Recreation Department with our Youth Soccer and Flag Football League. These student-athletes helped teach the fundamentals of football and soccer to elementary kids. This spring we had record numbers for soccer! Thank you to all the participants and their guardians for supporting the City of Bellevue Recreation Department.
