• <br />Park Board Meeting - November 4, 2002 <br />Minutes <br />Rick reviewed the average attendance numbers for the rinks last <br />year. He stated the Park Board should review the rinks after <br />this next season. <br />Chair Lindy asked if the programmed activities are included in <br />the attendance numbers. Rick advised the programmed activities <br />are included in the attendance numbers. <br />Bill asked if the City could find out what activities are <br />scheduled for when and where within the City. Rick stated the <br />scheduled activities are posted at each warming house. <br />Bill stated that information should be sent out to residents <br />because it would be helpful if people knew when they can use the <br />rinks. <br />Pat suggested the scheduled activities also be posted in the <br />newspaper. <br />Pam suggested it could also be put on the City's website. <br />Katie asked if there is more rink maintenance if the weather is <br />good for rink use. Rick stated there is some correlation between <br />maintenance and good weather but the City does regularly flood <br />the rinks. <br />Chair Lindy inquired about the warming house attendants. Rick <br />stated the City only pays attendants when the rinks are open so <br />the City can't guarantee a set number of hours per week. It is <br />difficult to find people to work that type of schedule. The City <br />does have 7 -8 people returning from last year. <br />RECREATION DEPARTMENT UPDATE: <br />Rick referred to the Program Highlights Flyer from October 2002. <br />He noted the department had its first set of CLUB outings for the <br />school year last month. Thirty -seven children participated in <br />the "Fall Harvest Fun" trip on October 17. Twenty -six children <br />participated in the "Cheapskate and Movie" trip on October 18. <br />This season the City saw an increase in participation and teams <br />across all divisions in Youth Football. The season concluded <br />with a playoff and will have a championship game on November 7 <br />(weather permitting). <br />Fitness classes have been disrupted due to the new school <br />district facility use policy. It is uncertain if the City will <br />continue to offer these classes. <br />• This year's Family Turkey Shoot will be held on Saturday, <br />November 16, 2002, at Centennial Middle School.
