3. When the number of people desired for 

 the use of the picture is in excess of 

 25, a special rate, based upon the con- 

 templated use of Park property, is 

 made by the Commissioner. 

 Of the $10.00 fee paid for a tent site, $3.00 is turned over to the 

 Department of Water Supply, Gas and Electricity, for water taxes. 



The charge for a camp permit is made only for a permit giving the 

 privilege of a camp site in the Orchard Beach Camp Colony. In addition 

 to this colony, there are in Pelham Bay Park two camp sites for men 

 only, a Boy Scout camp, and two tents maintained by the Working Girls' 

 Association. The Park Department makes no charge for these. 



The question as to whether or not there shall be a fee charged for 

 any class of permit and the amount of that fee is discretionary with the 

 Park Commissioner. This discretion, of course, does not apply to indi- 

 vidual permits : the charge to all individuals engaging in the same sport 

 or recreation must be the same. 



Applications for permits should be made in person or by mail to the 

 Secretary to the Commissioner of Parks, Borough of the Bronx, 



Zbrowski Mansion, 



Claremont Park. 



Baseball players have time and location assigned by the Commis- 

 sioner; Football, Socker, Cricket, etc., have location and hours arranged 

 by the Foremen. 



Tennis players may use unoccupied courts, under direction of Fore- 

 man, for such time as his judgment may determine. Each player must 

 be provided with a permit and wear rubber-soled tennis shoes while 

 playing. 



For Athletic Meets, Outings, May and June Walks, arrange- 

 ments should be made with the Foreman in charge, a few days before 

 these events take place.
