The printing would be done in-house <br />this year with the City's new copier machine.

Enrollment for the soccer camp was <br />very low the past two years. The nature camp will be programmed to expose <br />youth ages 3-9 to the outdoors, animals, and insects. The camp will be broken <br />into two groups: Lil' Explorers for ages 3-5 and Discovery Camp for ages 6-9. <br />Abernathy has two staff members who are currently perusing their education <br />degree at the U of MN so will be planning all the activities for this program. <br />Abernathy has also set up visits from the U of M Raptor Center and the U of M <br />• Monarch Butterfly lab to come out and present to the two camps. Coming up <br />this spring will be another Babysitting Training Course set for the beginning of <br />April. <br />
