I am applying for a grant with the Clean Energy Resource Teams (C.E.R.T.) for the replacement of the light fixtures. The grant is in the range of $5,000.00, which can be more if they determine the project is worthy of it. I will keep you posted of the outcome. 8. High School Coaches wall of fame Kent Madsen and I will be reviewing the information we received from Dave Halgren this coming summer and will be looking at how we want to honor these individuals. If all goes well we should have something together for the commissioners to review by the August meeting. 9. Ice Rates Attached for your review are the ice rates from the 2007 - 2008 season, along with 2008 - 2009 ice rates of other Arena's in our area. As you can see our rates are about average when comparing both our regular season rates and our summer rates. My recommendation is to keep the regular season rates as is for one more year and to look at the summer rates for 2009 in August. 10. New Zamboni The Zamboni is scheduled to be delivered sometime in October. The City of Roger's was initially interested in the purchasing of the old Zamboni. However their Youth Hockey Association was going to make a contribution for the machine but it never materialized. Since we have no buyers for the old Zamboni it will now be traded in. Unless we get a sponsor or the Commission has a color preference, the New Zamboni will be painted the same color as the other machine. 11. Staff Updates A.
