ITEM I 8.a. <br /> Elk River Park and Recreation Commission <br /> Community Recreation Update - November 11, 1998 <br /> • <br /> - Winter '99 Recreation Program planning : Planning is underway. We expect the <br /> program menu to consist of: Outdoor skating lessons, Indoor skating lessons, Open <br /> gyms, Indoor walking, "Smart Start" intro to athletic programs for soccer, basketball, t- <br /> ball, floor hockey, Gymnastics, Broomball, Intramural basketball, Adult BB & 35 + <br /> league new for this year. , Sleigh ride, various dances, pool tournaments, etc, at <br /> Youthbound. <br /> - Update : Family Sleigh Ride at Woodland Trails: Exact date still TBD. Dates under <br /> current consideration are: Jan. 23, Feb. 6, or Feb. 13. I am hopeful that Corn. ED. and <br /> ECFE will want to collaborate on this program and their resources could add to the <br /> event to offer some other miscellaneous Winter activities to supplement the program. <br /> - Minnesota Recreation And Park Association Conference. Took place Nov. 4-6. I will <br /> give a brief report on sessions I attended that may be of interest. <br /> - Update, BMX organization: Steve W. has a report. <br /> 11111 - Concession Trailer: Paul Krause owner of Pinewood Golf Course has donated a <br /> Concession Trailer to Youth Baseball. Youth BB and Girls Fastpitch were interested in <br /> this to help them w/their concession ability for events they host. This will be a nice <br /> interim solution to a concession building at YAC. <br /> - Collaborative Program Development Considerations W/Corn. Rec.. Com.Ed. & ECFE: <br /> Over the past several months staff representatives from Community Recreation, <br /> Community Education and ECFE have been working at developing quality programs <br /> and variety to best meet the needs of the community. Staff cannot do this alone, and <br /> thus we are considering methods to strengthen our efforts. I would like to share our <br /> ideas and get your feedback. <br /> Please call me with any questions. 241-3523. <br /> S <br />
