The committee <br />continues to monitor this issue and hopes to be an active participant in any <br />discussions held at the School Board level on the potential reduction of the <br />D.A.R.E. program in Elk River. <br /> <br />At this D.A.R.E. Committee meeting, Chair Patsy Kropuenske advised the <br />committee that the D.A.R.E. education project was successful in obtaining a <br />$4,000 grant from Three Rivers Community Foundation. Patsy authored this <br />grant, and, by definition of the grant agreement, the city is the grantee which <br />receives and spends the money. The city is very appreciative of Ms. <br />Kropuenske's efforts on behalf of the D.A.R.E. program. Attached for your <br />review is the grant and cover letter that Patsy received from Three Rivers <br />Community Foundation. <br /> <br />Recommended Action <br /> <br />It is recommended that the City Council formally accept the D.A.R.E. <br />education grant from the Three Rivers Community Foundation and extend <br />its appreciation to Chair Patsy Kropuenske for her efforts in obtaining this <br />money. <br /> <br />X\elkriverksysXshrdoc\council\daregrnt.doc <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
