2005• Rebuild the Barns roof: Estimated cost $80,000 - $100,000 The Barn's roof was a few years old when put on some time in the early 70's and is well past its life expectancy. This winter during some of the warmer weather there were several leaks on the south end effecting Elk River Youth KOCk2y' S Off1Ce aS Well itS the Arena Manager's Office. 2005• Water softener: Estimated cost: $8,500 Adding a water softener to the Arena's water supply should pay for itself within the first couple of years. The softener would eliminate a lot of minerals in the water so that we could reduce the temperature of the water we use to make ice. Since it would eliminate a lot of the minerals in the water, it would reduce the amount of chemicals that would be needed to treat the condensers. 2005: Move the pole for the walking track• Estimated Cost: $12,500 By the Zamboni gate in the Olympic rink where the goalie nets are brought in and out of the rink, a pole is set halfway between the wall and the boards. The goalie nets have to be jockeyed around this pole when placing them on and off the rink. To do this most of the employees go inside the nets to lift them with their back. If the pole was moved a modified two-wheeler could be used to put the nets on and off the rink with minimum lifting from the employees. I will be working with Dave from M.M.U.A. to see if we will. be able to get any grant money through the state. 2006• Replace Co Ray Vac pipes in the Barn estimated cost: $17,000 The Co Ray Vac system that is used in the Barn to heat the bleacher area is rusting and needs to be replaced. The system is a radiant system that is a series of heaters that are connected by a tube. This tube then carriers heat above the bleachers that radiates down on the bleachers. Over time the tubes have rusted and need to be replaced before they rust through, which will let the carbon monoxide escape into the rink area. 2007• Replace Desiccant Wheel on Dryer /Heater Unit: Estimated Cost: $7,500 The Desiccant Wheel is part of the Dryer /Heater Unit that dries out the air before it is introduced into the building. Hot air is moved across the wheel as it turns removing the humidity from the air that then goes into the building. Over the years the Desiccant on the wheel wears to a point where it is no longer effective. The life expectancy of a wheel is about five to seven years.
