MEMORANDUM <br /> TO: Ice Arena Commission, Members <br /> FROM: Rich Czech, Arena Manager <br /> DATE: August 19, 2003 <br /> SUBJECT: Agenda Memo —August 19, 2003 <br /> 5. Review 2003 finance information and 2004 budget <br /> Attached for your review is the financial summary for the Arena for the years 2001 — <br /> 2002, along with the actual year to date revenues and expenditures for 2003 and the <br /> Arena budget for 2004. <br /> The revenues for 2003 will end very close to what is budgeted. The two areas that I am <br /> watching closely are the skate sharpening and the admissions. The skate sharpening may <br /> end up short about $2,500.00 of what was budgeted. I believe this is partly due to <br /> customers wanting personalized skate sharpening, which we cannot provide due to the <br /> kind of skate sharpening machine we have. <br /> Admissions for 2002 were at $39,500.00, this year (2003) it is budgeted at $42,000.00. <br /> Last winter the admissions took in a little over$15,700.00 towards the 2003 budget. This <br /> leaves a balance of$26,300.00. This fall and winter there are 16 games left before the <br /> 2004 fiscal year begins. Out of these sixteen games, the Elk River Boys have four games, <br /> the Elk River Girls have six games, and the Rogers Boys and Girls teams have three <br /> games each. <br /> During the 2003 —2004 season the Elk River Boys will play four games in 2003. <br /> Looking at the gate receipts from these games during the 2002—2003 season they totaled <br /> $9,727.00. The Elk River Girls will have six games in 2003. Looking at the receipts of <br /> these games during the 2002 —2003 season shows gates receipts of$5,034.00. <br /> The three games the Rogers Boys Games will play in 2003 will generate a minimum of <br /> $1,350.00 if they play a Varsity schedule only, and the Rogers Girls team will generate a <br /> minimum of$1,125.00 for the three games they will play in 2003. <br /> This totals $17,236.00, short $9,064.00 of what is needed to reach what was budgeted for <br /> 2003. I would expect that the Rogers teams would bring in more revenue than the <br /> minimum, however this being their first season, there are no past numbers to project <br /> from. I would think being short $9,064.00 would be a worse case scenario. <br /> Barring any unforeseen major expenditures operating expenditures should come in under <br /> budget. The Vending Merchandise Resale expenditures looks like it will also be under <br />
