Tonight: Join Commissioner Herman C. Robinson at monthly Recreation Advisory Board (RAB) meeting.


At end of this blog post is the RAB agenda.

Note the RAB is a public meeting open
to everyone from the public.


The City’s Recreation Advisory Board meetings are held at 6:15 on the third Wednesday of each month and meet at the City’s Recreation Dept. building located at 501 Lake Ave. across from the Cultural Plaza.

The staff liaison to the RAB is the resourceful, ingenious and incredibly talented Lauren Bennett. To contact Bennett at the office call 561-533-7363 or send an email to: lbennett@lakeworth.org

About the RAB:


The Board assists in promoting awareness and involvement in City’s recreation programs. The Board also serves as advisors in policy, schemes, programming, finances, future land acquisition, and facility capital projects relating to recreational needs of the citizens (members serve three year terms).


Resurrecting the RAB was one of Herman’s promises when he campaigned for a seat on the City Commission in March 2017. Do you have ideas to share? Maybe thinking of becoming a City volunteer? Then please contact Commissioner Robinson:
