two days a week for six weeks at $40. 00 per <br /> • registration. This is over twice the cost and <br /> half the number of days. <br /> SCHOLARSHIPS: The Mounds View Lion's. Club generously contributed <br /> $500. 00 for scholarships beginning in January <br /> 1992 . The money is almost expired in only one <br /> session of recreation registration.

This donation will offset the <br /> cost of the program. <br /> The Sunrise Seniors Club and Messiah Senior' s Club <br /> have been functioning with whatever assistance <br /> staff has been able to provide. Flyers, <br /> information distribution and scheduling of trips <br /> and activities have been performed, although the <br /> groups have been left to carry out their meetings <br /> by themselves with decreased involvement by <br /> department staff because of the lack of time that <br /> staff has to commit to attending their meetings. <br /> MVCT: The MVCT Board of Directors have chosen the play <br /> "CAMELOT" for this summer' s production. Staff <br /> will be assisting the MVCT with administrative <br /> support as previously performed.
