Indoor Soccer: <br /> We completed accepting registration for this program. Last season we had 18 teams <br /> registered for this program. We accommodated 19 teams for this season. The season is <br /> over half over and operating smoothly. <br /> Adult Softball: <br /> We are currently accepting registrations for the upcoming season. The registrations <br /> already received in my office are on par with previous years,but we have received more <br /> phone inquiries then in past years. It will be attempted to have forty men's teams and <br /> sixteen co—rec. team's. With registration now complete, we have 40 men's and 12 co— <br /> Rec. teams for the summer softball season. We are up four teams from the previous year. <br /> Marketing news: <br /> The summer brochure is currently being worked on. We advertised in the Centennial <br /> School District's publication"Observer". We anticipate on advertising in this publication <br /> periodically throughout the year. <br /> Other News: <br /> Earth Day Celebration was held last Saturday, April 25. The weather was terrific and <br /> countless number of people attended this event. I do know that over 950 hot dogs were <br /> served to people in attendance. The Parks and Recreation Department had a display <br /> booth that was popular. Staff handed out information regarding our programs that are <br /> offered this summer. <br /> Kite Day is just around the corner. This event will be held on Saturday, June 6 in the <br /> morning. 250 donated kites will be handed out to residents. This is a terrific way for <br /> people to meet our parks and recreation staff and enjoy flying a kite. <br /> Part—Time Recreation Programmer: <br /> Liz Bursack was hired a short time ago and is already providing essential services for the <br /> department and most of all the residents. This summer Liz will be operating the Open <br /> Playground, Traveling Playground, Soccer"fundamentals", Sports Zone, Wild Away For <br /> A Day Trips and Pre-School Playtime programs. Along with these programs, she is <br /> already working on a fall lineup. I am looking forward working with Liz. <br /> Starting with this update,Liz and I will combine our updates for the Park Board. It is <br /> believed this will be more convenient for the Park Board. <br /> LINO LAKES PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT <br /> "We are working hard so you can play" <br /> �'� REF:park board.986 <br />
