The Recreation and Parks Commission recognized aquatics instructor and adult educator, Clark Dikeman with the Recreation and Parks Commission Award on Dec. 20. The award recognizes those who make an outstanding contribution demonstrating a commitment to the field of Recreation and Parks and improving the quality of life in Beverly Hills.
“Clark Dikeman has made outstanding contributions to the Beverly Hills community with his kind, positive, energetic and encouraging demeanor as an instructor, friend and fitness influencer,” said Amie Sherry, Recreation and Parks Commission Chair.
Dikeman served the community for over 20 years in recreation, from BHHS’s pool lifeguard to adult education exercise instructor, BHUSD substitute teacher and swim/exercise coach. During the pandemic, Dikeman held an online exercise class, free of charge, for those residents who are housebound and have limited ability to pursue exercise. He continues to offer the online class to this day.
