<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Sports/Programs <br />Fall women’s volleyball just wrapped up for the season. The winter adult league season will start in mid- <br />January. Women’s volleyball will have 20 teams at two locations, co-ed volleyball is full with 6 teams, and <br />men's basketball is full with 6 teams. Apart from co-ed volleyball, the other leagues filled up within the <br />first week of registration being open. The challenge we face is gym availability as the leagues cannot grow <br />as we have reached their current capacity and availability. <br /> <br />Registration for the Breakaway Hockey League is open. Anoka is no longer a partner in the league, but we <br />are very excited about adding Coon Rapids as a new partner. Registration will close in later February with <br />an anticipated start date of March 9. <br /> <br />We are still in the process of hiring staff to work at the warming house at Handke for the winter. We are <br />hoping to have skateable ice by Christmas break if mother nature cooperates. Once the ice is ready, we <br />will be staffed Monday-Friday from 4-8pm, Saturdays 12-9pm, and Sundays 12-8pm. <br /> <br />Fields <br />Last month, the commission discussed the potential purchase of bleachers for PT Complex. The current <br />volatility of the aluminum market is presenting challenges to obtain accurate pricing from vendors and <br />the price that city staff has been presented with cannot be guaranteed from start to finish with the <br />purchase. After multiple conversations with our vendor, it has been determined that staff will work with <br />the vendor after January 1 to best determine a course of action and to obtain accurate pricing prior to <br />approving the purchase. <br /> <br />Summer Concert Series <br />Staff recently met with the Bank of Elk River to plan the 2026 Riverfront Concert Series. The city is <br />appreciative of the bank’s ongoing sponsorship of the concert series, and everyone is excited about the <br />planned lineup for next summer. More details to come soon. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Page 25 of 25
