MIRAMAR, FL (Aug. 30, 2016) – Visits to the beach, bowling alley, skating rink and arcade were just a few of the activities enjoyed by more than 80 at-risk youth in Miramar during the one-of-a-kind “Hangin’ with 5-0” summer camp, a joint community initiative between the Miramar Police Athletic League and the City of Miramar.

Sponsored by Sunbeam Properties & Development and the Miramar Park of Commerce, the largest locally owned and managed business park in South Florida, “Hangin’ with 5-0” is in its 14th year.


“The program turns 14 this year thanks to Sunbeam Properties, whose support saved ‘Hangin’ with 5-0’ from elimination due to budget cuts in 2008,” said City of Miramar Police Officer and Miramar Police Athletic League Executive Director Scott Hadley. “They have supported us every year since then, and we can’t thank them enough.”

 “It’s a great way for us to provide a safe environment for the kids during summer when they’re not in school. We offer a ton of fun activities that they wouldn’t get to do otherwise and many of them come back year after year,” said Sergeant Julie Black. “Plus, it’s a lot of fun.”

“We are delighted to support ‘Hangin’ with 5-0’ for the eighth consecutive year,” said Maridee Bell, vice president of Sunbeam Properties, developer of the Miramar Park of Commerce. “The program meets a need in our community and certainly brightens the summer season for so many students. We have no doubts that it will continue to do so.”
