MIRAMAR’S LATEST VISION FOR SENIORS NOW A REALITY
Miramar residents -- South Florida and beyond -- will now have an exciting new facility to host entertainment, sporting and cultural events now that The Miramar Amphitheater at Regional Park has been approved for start of construction! The Department of Parks & Recreation, in conjunction with the Department of Construction & Facilities Management, officially marked the groundbreaking of The Miramar Amphitheater at Regional Park, on Wednesday, December 9, 2015, 10:00 a.m. at the Amphitheater’s proposed site at Miramar Regional Park, 16801 Miramar Pkwy, Miramar, FL 33027.
The City of Miramar broke ground on its new Adult Day Care Center on Tuesday, November 17, 2015 at the Center’s future site location at 8915 Miramar Parkway. The 3,800-square-foot one-story Adult Day Care facility will house a covered drop-off area, secured reception area and staff offices. It will also feature activity areas, classrooms and a dining room with warming kitchen as part of its amenities. The Adult Day Care facility will be a key component of the City’s Southcentral Southeast Focal Point designation -- making the City of Miramar one of only four focal points in Broward County providing a full spectrum of Social Services programs and services.
Nikki Grossman, President of the Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention and Visitor’s Bureau and Mike Kaufman, Chief Executive Officer from Kaufman Lynn Construction, the company who won the bid to build the amphitheater, both spoke along with Leo Bennett, CEO of Variety Entertainment and the promoter of the upcoming Funk Fest Miami presented by Pepsi to be held January 1st at Miramar Regional Park.
The City recognized the necessity of a center that could provide a new alternative for families and caregivers seeking specialized care for their loved ones during the day. The new Miramar Adult Day Care Center represents that community resource.
This venue marks the first construction project in Miramar green-lighted to attract tourists, corporations, promoters and organizations to visit Miramar and bring their businesses—and tourist dollars--to the City of Beauty and Progress.
According to Marva Ricketts, Director of Social Services, “The New! Adult Day care facility enables us to provide the much needed continuum of care which will allow our residents the ability to age in place with the dignity and respect they deserve.”
The Amphitheater at the Miramar Regional Park will have a seating capacity of 3,000 under the cover of a 28-thousand-square-foot canopy with additional lawn seating on the promenades. Once completed, The Miramar Amphitheater at Regional Park will be set to host events such as live music concerts, corporate retreats, art and book fairs, festivals, fundraising/ charity events, outdoor plays—the list goes on and on!
Clients must be 18 and over. To schedule an appointment for an intake assessment, please call (954) 505-4425.
The Miramar Amphitheater at Regional Park will have everyone truly saying, “It’s Right Here in Miramar!”
