MEMO TO: Mounds View Parks and Recrea ion Commission FROM: Bruce K. Anderson, Parks, Recreation an. DATE: December 15 , 1982 RE : Monthly update - December, 1982 The following issues and programs are outlined to provide the Commission with a better overview of the department 's day to day operations . Each of the listed items are strictly information oriented and not intended for formal Commission action. 1 . Golden Glove Boxing - Enclosed is a copy of the waiver and indemnification agreement that the Golden Glove Boxing program has agreed to sign in order to have an official franchise through the City of Mounds View. The form was presented to the Mounds View City Council on Monday , December 13 , 1982 and they formally approved the Golden Glove Boxing program as a sanctioned program under our jurisdiction. We currently have 58 young people enrolled in the program which has continued to grow each week with five volunteers currently coordinating the program on a regular basis. The program meets on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 6 : 00 - 9 : 00 p.m. at Edgewood Community Center. I would encourage each of you to stop by and check the program out as we will be reviewing the program at the S completion of six months to determine whether or not the pro- gram should be continued in the future years . 2. Memo from Rushton and Carney - Staff has included a letter from city attorney Mark Carney which outlines current policy regarding workers compensation and unemployment expenses . During the past few years , we have tried to use our employee contract as a form which would eliminate employees making claims for either unemploy- ment or workmans compensation towards the City of Mounds View. As can be noted by the enclosed letter, this policy apparently no longer is, nor was it ever , valid. Staff is in the process of reviewing our current contract with city attorney Carney to determine if a modified or adaptive policy or contract agreement could be developed. 3 . Hiring of part-time office aide — Staff has made contact with School District #621 to hire a C .E .T .A employee as a part-time office aide during the school year . We have hired a young woman by the name of Rose Seiberlich who will be working on a Monday through Friday basis with funds to be paid through the School District C .E .T .A. program. Rose ' s responsibility will include flyer preparation, light typing , counter and program registration as well as telephone answering. 4 . Pirates of Penzance - the Mounds View Young People' s Theater held • their initial performance on Friday, December 10 , 1982 at Edgewood Community Center with over 36 young people involved in the actual performance . The Pirates of Penzance was the culmination of our 12 week theater program which proved to be extremely successful under the jurisdiction of instructors Beth Gillman and Haeri Tollef- son. The program was viewed by over 350 Mounds View residents with cookies and refreshments served . : :_erwards . Staff envisions
