Last month I'm bragging about opening rinks 2 weeks earlier than <br />usual and now 6 weeks of above normal temperatures. As you can probably imagine the rinks <br />are a mess. <br />Maintenance highlights during an extremely mild January has included: <br />Rink maintenance — daily sweeping, blowing, shoveling, and flooding (when possible). <br />Building maintenance — cleaning and restocking shelters as needed. <br />Purchased and installed Tufflex floor tiles (4'x6') in warming houses at Sunrise, Birch <br />and City Hall Parks. <br />Attended Green Expo Conference and Trade Show (pesticide recertification). <br />Repaired hockey goals as needed. <br />Buckthorn removal (S Reshanau Lake Estates trail area). <br />Removed 9 high risk Red Oaks from City property. <br />Prepped wood duck houses for spring (removed old nesting materials replaced with new). <br />Building improvement projects: <br />Organized tools <br />Installed shovel and rake racks <br />Painted interior walls <br />Chipped Christmas trees. <br />Equipment maintenance. <br />Nuisance snow removal (sidewalks, parking lots, and trails). <br />Those are January's highlights. Is winter ever going to show up? <br />Sw /mike /January 06 Park Update.doc <br />• <br />
