• <br /> MEMO TO: Parks & Recreation Commission <br /> FROM: Staff <br /> DATE: February 24 , 1982 <br /> SUBJECT: Re-cap of Winter Skating Program <br /> The five winter skating rinks were officially closed on Thursday, <br /> February 18 , 1982 . Based on the quality of our staff, weather, <br /> ice condition, portable buildings, and general administration, <br /> staff would say that the 1981-1982 skating season was not our best <br /> year. <br /> We experience some bitter cold weather and heavy snow which forced <br /> us to close the rinks for three consecutive weekends. We had to <br /> fire three employees due to misconduct and experienced some major <br /> vandalism at two park sites : <br /> • From a positive perspective staff felt the portable buildings <br /> worked as well as can be expected and given the myriad of issues <br /> that needed Co' be dealt with, new steps, texgas, electrical modifi- <br /> cations, benches, etc . , we were able to provide a basic skating <br /> program at a minimal cost. <br /> Staff will be reviewing the skating program in greater depth, <br /> specifically the issues of vandalism at Thursday' s meeting. <br /> • <br />
