Mr. Resch arrived. n Mr. Clausen reported that he will have some recommendation for the leveling of the hockey rinks at Sunrise Park. He will have this report for the July meeting. One end of the rink is about 12" lodger and will need to be graded and possibly some fill put on that end. Mr. McLean suggested some paint for the !?arming house at Sunrise and thought a bright color would be in order - soimet:ling other than white. Mrs. Kendall suggested painting the barn at Sunrise also. Mr. McLean said the barn h.-id been hit by a car and must be repaired. He felt that painting could be considered after that. He suggested that the Clerk contact fir. Henry Amundsen, the City Building Inspector, for a cost estimate as to the repairs. Mr. McLean also reported that the two teenagers are working in the Parks with fir. Johnson. They have painted the bleachers, some of the picnic tables, most of the playground equipment at Sunrise and most of the back- stops. He thought these two could assist in the painting of the barn at a later date. Mr. McLean suggested that in preparing the long range plans for Sunrise, the installation of a fence should be included. The second ball diamond at the Hall property has been started. fir. Resch was asked to stake the corners for the backstop. There is enough materials at the Hall for the construction of a backstop or that diamond. Mr. Johnson will take care of this. There are a couple of pieces missing on the present backstop i4r. Resch has the clamps and will get them to Mr. Johnson so that they can be installed. The Clerk was asked to remind Mr. Johnson of the 2 - 4X10 foot screens
