OBJECTIVES FOR RECREATION 1985
1111 The primary goal of the recreation programming division is the
continued enrichment and growth of Mounds View residents through
leisure education and recreational opportunities for all ages; to
be properly supervised and coordinated to ensure all programs are
operated in a safe and economical manner .
1 . A primary objective for 1985 will be to nurture the already
established wellness programs and continue to introduce the
public to new wellness programs on an on-going basis. This
will include continued marketing of existing programs and
introductory programs. Considering that such self improve-
ment classes take time to "catch on" , I will not be discour-
aged , but continue to educate the public with introductory
clinics. An objective of four wellness class offerings per
season ; two established and two new classes will be primary
to my programming priorities.
2. Expand adult athletic leagues to include the following:
Tennis League
Horseshoe League
Table Tennis League
Co-rec Sandlot Volleyball League
2-man Sandlot Volleyball League
1111 3. Provide opportunities for unstructured , personal , individual
fitness at Edgewood Community Center . Equipment to be pur-
chased will include a weight training hydraulic machine and
auxillery equipment including jump ropes , hand weights and
exercise bicycle .
4 . An on-going committment to lifelong leisure opportunities
will continue to be a priority. Such programs as cross coun-
try skiing , tennis, golf , orchestra, choir , swimming , and
fitness will continue to be offered and expanded upon .
5. Another priority will be to expand programming during the
daytime at Edgewood Community Center. Opportunities should
include tiny tot and adult activities. The activities must
become structured with supervision .
6. Increase public awareness of the existing cultural arts pro-
grams through marketing targeted atgroups such as churches ,
schools, groups and organizations.
7 . Family activities and/or programs will be expanded to at
least two additional offerings per season .

NEIGHBORHOOD PARK PLANNING FUND GUIDELINES
4
PURPOSE
The purpose of the neighborhood park development and planning
fund is to encourage , promote and assist local residents, neigh-
borhood organizations, and civic groups in the establishment and
development of local park projects from a both financial and in-
kind labor perspective .
OBJECTIVES
1. To establish, develop and create other neighborhood park
planning councils using the Groveland Park Foundation as a
model.
2. The neighborhood park planning fund will not expend more than
50% of the available monies on an annual basis in each of
the three established and separate accounts.
3. There will be three separate accounts established for dissem-
inating neighborhood park planning funds :
a. Initial or seed money account will consist of 15% of the
total fund. This account will be utilized for developing
new neighborhood park planning councils and first time
projects proposed by local neighborhood residents, organ-
izations and/or civic groups. The grant monies from this
4111 account need only be matched by an equivalent of inkind
labor from the sponsoring group.
b. Short term projects . The short term project fund will
not exceed 60% of the total fund balance at any time .
Short term projects are those projects defined as those
having a budgeted dollar amount of less that $5 ,000 and
will be completed within a one year period. All short
term projects are required to be matched by an equal
amount of funds from the sponsoring agency or group.
c . Long term project. This account will not exceed 25% of
the neighborhood park planning fund and will consist of
projects exceeding a $5 ,000 budgeted amount. The project
should be planned with a minimum of one year involvement
by the proposed group or organization and needs to be
matched on a 50% cash basis and 50% inkind labor and/or
materials.
GUIDELINES
1 . The neighborhood park planning fund project requests will be
reviewed on an individual project basis and applications may
be submitted to the Parks and Recreation Commission
throughout the year. All applications must be submitted on
the official application form and be received at least one
1111 week prior to the regularly scheduled Parks and Recreation
Commission meeting for review at their following meeting .
2 . The neighborhood park planning fund monies are available for
all neighborhood parks within this system excluding Silver
View Community Park and the two school park locations, Edge-
wood and Pinewood Elementary School.
-2-
4111 „ v
3 . All applications will be initially reviewed by the Parks and
Recreation Commission who inturn will forward their final re-
commendation to the City Council for final and formal ap-
proval.
4 . All proposed neighborhood park improvement projects must com-
ply with the City' s parks and open space plan as adopted by
the Parks and Recreation Commission and City Council .
5. No neighborhood park planning funds may be used for funding
labor or staffing positions, such as a building supervisor ,
or activity coordinator; as all funds must be used for capi-
tal expenditures of a permanent nature .
6. Promotion of the neighborhood park planning and development
fund will be through the City Newsletter and all other media
means available to the City staff and the Parks and Recrea-
tion Commission .
7 . It is the goal of the park planning and development fund to
become self-sustaining , with all future projects to be funded
from interest derived from the principal. The initial goal
for the park planning and development fund has been set a
$50 ,000.
4111 8 . An annual audit will be provided to the Parks and Recreation
Commission in January of each year by staff .

MEMO TO: Mounds View Parks and Recreation Commission
4111
FROM: Bruce K. Anderson, Director
Parks, Recreation and Forestry
DATE: March 17 , 1983
RE: New directions
"It is the duty of a Park Commission to open the way to new, not
to follow old customs , to lead public opinion and not to tag
after it. If it is not prepared to move in advance of the people
of whose interests it is placed in charge, nothing is more certain
than that after a few years its labors will be regarded very
ungratefully and the question will often be asked, why could they
not have used a little more foresight and go a little more out of
the inherited ruts?"
The significance of this statement is appropriate in any generation
for it keynotes responsibilities which agencies have to engender
the well being of society . Foresightedness and willingness to
keep pace with the times are essential attributes which agencies
must possess if they are to properly guide development of an
ever changing society. To this end, the Mounds View Parks and
Recreation Department staff and Commission must periodically
reevaluate their basic goals and objectives in light of new
conditions.
• During the past five years the Mounds View Parks and Recreation
Commission has spent a great deal of energy and time preparing
for the future of the Mounds View parks and open space system.
The outgrowth of that planning has been the development of the
citywide comprehensive parks and open space master plan, the
acquisition, development of Silver View Park and a joint powers
agreement with the school district which allows for joint develop-
ment of park/school playgrounds as well as reducing program
duplication.
To help better meet the ever changing years ahead, staff has broken
our planning process into two separate dimensions . The first being
a short range or operational focus and the second being long range
or strategic focus . The Park Commission has already taken great
strides in the long range strategic planning efforts through the
development of the comprehensive parks and open space plan which
provides a good reference for the next two to five years of long
range planning.
Staff would recommend that the Parks and Recreation Commission set
an annual meeting in the spring of each year with the Mounds View
City Council to review the long range park and recreation, parks
and open space plan with a tour of the parks on a Saturday morning .
At that time , we could observe recent park development and revise or
update the comprehensive plan. It should be noted that throughout
the planning process , both short and long range planning goals and
objectives need to be reviewed on a regular basis . To that end ,
staff would recommend that a -joint meeting be established with the
City Council to review the City' s long range capital improvement
plan and parks and open space plan on Saturday , April 30 , 1983 .
- 2 -
The major focus of this memo will be on the short range or
operational focus of our department which I envision falling
into two major categories . The first direction would be to
continue and expand the concept of neighborhood park planning
councils similar to that of the Groveland Park Foundation into
four other planning quadrants within the City . In addition to
the development of the park planning councils , staff would
recommend that the Park Commission members be appointed as
representatives to each of the respective park planning councils
similar to a City Council ward system.
The second major focus or direction that staff proposes is that
we review the existing long range plan to develop a shorter more
realistic five year capital improvement plan which should not
exceed $50 ,000 per year for park development. As part of the
revised five year capital improvement plan, staff would envision
not only prioritizing park projects , but also outlining as to
the funding source in one of the following areas :
1. General Fund
2 . Revenue sharing and/or other city funds .
3 . State and Federal grant programs .
4 . Neighborhood involvement through either park
planning councils, matching money or through
community work efforts .
4111 A more in depth look at how the park planning council and short
range capital improvement planning process would work is as follows :
Volunteerism is not a new idea. Its roots are deep in the American
park and recreation movement and our department is no exception .
We currently depend upon volunteers in our programs through the
youth baseball/softball program and other athletic programs ,
Advisory Commissions; citywide athletic associations and park
maintenance. As staff indicated at our last Park Commission meeting,
the key to success in working with volunteers is to have a well
planned approach as to what specific tasks might be completed by
volunteers as well as how the manpower will be supervised.
In addition to the obvious benefits of using volunteers to increase
manpower at a minimal cost; there are numberous other benefits to
the volunteers such as experiences that they might gain from the
job , as well as the benefits the community gains from multiple
spin-offs associated with citizen involvement.
Staff would propose that we establish five separate park planning
councils broken down as follows:
Park Planning Council No. 1 - This planning council would include
Groveland Park, Ardan Park and the Red Oak School complex with the
borders being the city boundaries on the north and west side,
• Highway 10 on the south side and Greenwood Drive on the east, ( to
include Ardan Park) .
- 3 -
Park Planning Council No. 2 - This would include Hillview, Greenfield
• and Oakwood Parks with the boundaries being the city ' s border on the
north and east side, Greenwood Drive on the west and County Road I
on the south.
Park Planning Council No. 3 - This would include City Hall Park,
Pinewood Elementary School and Lambert Park with the boundaries
being the city boundaries on the east, County Road I on the north,
Long Lake Road on the west and Highway 10 on the south.
Park Planning Council No . 4 - This would include Silver View Park
and Lakeside Park with the border on the northeast side being
Highway 10 , County Road H2 on the south and the city boundary on
the west.
Park Planning Council No. 5 - would include Edgewood Park, Woodcrest
Park, Random Park and Knollwood Park with boundaries of County Road H2
on the north, Highway 10 on the east, County Road H on the south and
the city boundary on the west.
Before we consider the specific elements of a volunteer program,
staff feels that some time should be spent considering organization
and use of such planning councils . Probably the most improtant
item that needs to be kept in mind is that all volunteers are
people first with basic rights and responsibilities relating to
their specific work projects . To that end, volunteers not only
4111 should, but must have the opportunity to say no or request changes
in the system. It is imperative from staff ' s perspective that if
we do get into a full volunteer program such as expanding the volunteer
park councils, that the Park Commission, staff and City Council be
willing to respect their opinions and positions on issues .
There are seven basic elements that are required in organizing a
volunteer program:
1. Preparation and planning .
2 . Recruitment and placement.
3 . Orientation.
4 . Training and Supervision .
5 . Record keeping
6 . Recognition
7 . Program evaluation.
I . Preparation and planning Prior to our initiating any further
work on the neighborhood park councils , we as a Park Commission,
need to thoroughly outline the program objectives of our neigh-
borhood park councils . Staff would envision the following
objectives to be accomplished by neighborhood park councils:
1111 A. Develop and compile a comprehensive leisure time assessment
needs for each of the individual neighborhoods to include
the following items :
- 4 -
1. Socioeconomic characteristics of each neighborhood.
• 2 . Activities that the residents are presently
participating in.
3 . Facilities that the residents are currently
utilizing .
4 . Determine what additional park and recreation
facilities would be requested in each neighborhood.
5 . A listing of activities that residents would like to
participate in.
Staff would not envision that this would be a
lengthy study or detailed analysis but rather a
form outlining the basic description of the neighbor-
hood and a random sampling to determine what types
of programs or facilities their respective neighbor-
hood desires .
B . To strengthen and reenforce community pride and develop a
stronger neighborhood bond. To work with the Park and
Recreation Department in the development of two annual
neighborhood special events which might include:
1. Neighborhood block parties .
2 . Community barbecues .
• 3 . Tug 'o war challenge matches .
4 . Street dancing .
5 . Neighborhood booya party.
6 . Winter fun night; including possibly sleigh rides ,
neighborhood skating party , family tobogganing and
sliding .
7 . Splash parties at Edgewood Community Center .
8 . Softball leagues by neighborhood, in cooperation
with the Parks and Recreation Department .
9 . Neighborhood bridge parties .
10 . Gourmet food clubs , etc .
C. Neighborhood park planning councils would serve as an
extension of the municipal recreation department and
Parks and Recreation Commission on all matters relating
to park development and recreation programs in their
respective area. Staff feels that a representative from
the Park Commission couldact ct as a
liason
between the
neighborhood park planning councils and the Park and
Recreation Commission .
- 5 -
D. The neighborhood park planning council would take on
• annual community park projects such as supervising
the winter warming houses , maintaining or assisting
in the maintenance of a neighborhood park site, helping
to construct new equipment or establish one fund raiser
to help their respective neighborhood park.
E . The neighborhood park planning council would review any
park development plans within their respective park
planning area prior to approval by the Park Commission
and/or City Council.
II . Recruitmen and Placement Staff would envision that recruitment
will be the most difficult phase in establishing the neighbor-
hood park planning councils. We would envision that the Park
Commission would play an active role in recruitment and placement
of residents from their respective neighborhoods . Possible
methods that staff could provide assistance in recruitment might
be through neighborhood block party, surveys, local volunteer
coaches , community meetings , or any related recreational or
social activity that could be conducted at their respective
neighborhood park . Once a list of names have been compiled,
we would need to select one person who could spearhead the
effort and become the coordinator for their respective park
neighborhood council. The staff also feels that the residents
from the Groveland Park Foundation could be of great assistance
Sinthe area of recruitment and placement as they have already
been through this initial planning process .
Additional recruitment methods would include; newspaper
articles, Public Service Announcements , speaking engagements ,
direct mailings to groups or individuals , placement offices
at volunteer fair, etc .
III . Orientation One must remember that each volunteer will in
fact be a representative of the Park and Recreation Department
and the Park and Recreation Commission . Orientation of the
park planning councilmembers would be the responsibility of our
department and would include the following:
1 . Information about our department and how it functions .
2 . Information on our general purpose, objective and philosophy
of our department.
3 . A clear explanation of the volunteers and park planning ' s
obligation to the department; the role, the relationship, etc.
4 . Information as to how the particular neighborhood park
council fits into the overall function of the agency .
5 . A detailed listing of what would be available as far as
the support services from staff including but not limited
to supplies , phones , clerical work, etc .
- 6 -
In additiion, staff would be preparing an orientation manual
• which outlines our agency as well as what the neighborhood
park councils responsibilities might be. Once again, staff
would envision involving the Groveland Park Foundation as
much as possible in this area.
IV. Training and Supervision Staff would envision that our
department program staff would be responsible for the training
and supervision of the neighborhood park councils either direct-
ly or through indirect supervision. One of the key successes
of the Groveland Park Foundation is that we have been able to
stress upon each of them what an integral part of the recreation
program they have become . We have attempted to treat their agency
as much like our paid staff as possible . Providing them with
required attention, support, etc . and of course recognition.
In addition, they have assumed very real responsibility and
have been accountable for carrying our those tasks which is
an integral part of the training and supervision phase.
V. Record Keeping Staff would recommend that some sort of record
keeping such as minutes of meetings, etc . would be kept so that
we have a means to go back and grow from previous council ' s
mistakes and are not continually reinventing the wheel. In
addition to a record as to how the prcess evolves , it will also
provide us an opportunity to inform the City Council as to
exactly what involvement and support there is for the park and
S recreation movement within the municipality.
. Recognition Staff would envision that this area would be
accomplished in many of the traditional means such as certificates,
mention in public agency publications , area bulletin boards ,
special events, luncheons , citywide appreciation dinner, picnics ,
etc. In addition, staff would like to think that some type of
recreation incentive program be established such as volunteers
being paid off in recreation activities such as free or reduced
registration in park and recreation department activities and/or
outside private recreation firms such as possibly soliciting;
bowling passes from Mermaid or local racquetball clubs .
VII . Program Evaluation The neighborhood park planning councils
would receive that same type of program evaluation that we
provide to any of our other department programs. Eventually,
we would envision that each neighborhood park planning council
would submit an annual program as what they expected to accomplish
which could be reviewed by the Parks and Recreation Commission
to insure continuity and overall program quality on a citywide
basis . Most importantly, the goals for the neighborhood park
councils must mesh and remain consistant with the goals of our
department.
4111
- / -
Regarding the development of short range priorities within
• the park system, staff would envision that the process would
follow three steps :
1. We would first review the parks and open space master plan
once again.
Establish priorities on a entire city basis .
2 . Take a look at each individual park and prioritize items
within their respective park system.
3 . We would compile a final list which would have an individual
breakdown of items by respective park , their cost and
proposed funding source.
To that end, staff has enclosed a listing of the park priorities
by individual park with an estimated cost for improvement and
a blank space for priority as well as a space for potential
funding source.
Staff would envision that we would probably need to break the
priority list down even further than the enclosed list to reach
within the $50 ,000 allotment staff is proposing per year but it
will at least give us a position from which to begin.
Staff fully realizes the following two things :
• 1. There is a great deal of work that needs to be accomplished
once again by the Parks and Recreation Commission .
2 . The proposed plans provide somewhat of a different orientation
for our department than from its previous direction.
Staff would envision and welcome any discussions or conversations
relating to this issue and do not expect the Commission to take
any specific action at the March 24 , 1983 meeting .

MEMO TO: Mounds View Parks and Recreation Commission
FROM: Bruce K. Anderson, Director
Parks, Recreation and Forestry
DATE: March 17, 1983
RE: New directions
"It is the duty of a Park Commission to open the way to new, not
to follow old customs, to lead public opinion and not to tag
after it. If it is not prepared to move in advance of the people
of whose interests it is placed in charge, nothing is more certain
than that after a few years its labors will be regarded very
ungratefully and the question will often be asked, why could they
not have used a little more foresight and go a little more out of
the inher�ted ruts?"
The significance of this statement is appropriate in any generation
for it keynotes responsibilities which agencies have to engender
the well being of society. Foresightedness and willingness to
keep pace with the times are essential attributes which agencies
must possess if they are to properly guide development of an
ever chanqing society. To this end, the Mounds View Parks and
Recreation Department staff and Commission must periodically
reevaluate their basic goals and objectives in light of new
conditions.
During the past five years the Mounds View Parks and Recreation
""'" Commission has spent a great deal of energy and time preparing
for the future of the Mounds View parks and open space system.
The outgrowth of that planning has been the development of the
citywide canprehensive parks aad open space master plan, the
acquisition, development of Silver View Park and a joint powers
aqreement with the school district which allows for joint develop-
ment of park/school playgrounds as well as reducing program
duplication.
`✓
To help better meet the ever changing years ahead, staff has broken
our planning process into two separate dimensions. The first being
a short range or operational focus and the second being long range
or strategic focus. The park Commission has already taken great
strides in the long range strategic planning eFforts through the
development of the comprehensive parks and open space plan which
provides a good reference for the next two to five years o'_ long
range planning.
�nG� VYDGLVG l�{. kJQll� YCVC1VtJ
update the comprehensive plan. It should be noted
the planning process, both short and long range pl
objectives need to be reviewed on a regular basis.

or

The major foous of this memo will be on the short range or
operational focus of our department which I envision falling
to develoo a shorter more
revis�r capital improvement plan, staff would envision
not only prioritizinq park projects, but also outlining as to
the funding source in one of the following areas:
1. General Fund
2. Revenue sharing and/or other city funds.
3. State and Federal grant programs.
4. Neighborhood involvement through either park
planninq councils, matching money or through
camnunity work efforts.
A more in depth look at how the park planning council and short
range capital improvement planning process would work is as follows:
Volunteerism is not a new idea. Its roots are deep in the American
pazk and recreation movement and our department is no exception.
We cutrently depend upon volunte�rs in our programs through the
youth baseball/softball program and other athletic programs,
Advisory Commissions; citywide athletic associations and park
maintenance. As staff indicated at our last Park Commission meeting,
the key to success in working with volunteers is to have a well
planned approach as to what specific tasks might be completed by
volunteers as well as how the manpower will be supervised.
In addition to the obvious benefits of using volunteers to increase
manpower at a minimal cost; there are numberous other benefits to
the volunteers such as experiences that they might gain from the
job, as well as the benefits the community gains from multiple
spin-offs associated with citizen involvement.
Staff would propose that we establish five separate park planning
councils broken down as follows:
Park Plannin Council No. 1- This planning council would include
Grove an Par , Ar an Park and the Red Oak School complex with the
��� borders beinq the city boundaries on the north and weat side,
� ' Highway 10 on the south side and Greenwood Drive on the east, (to
`�./ include Ardan Park) .
- 3 -
Park Plannin Council No. 2- This would include Hillview, Greenfield
,�� an O� wo Parka w t t�e boundaries being the city's border on the
� north and eaet side, Greenwood Drive on the west and County Road I
on the south.
Park Plannin Council No. 3- This would include City Hall Park,
P newo Elementary Sehool and Lambert Park with the boundaries
being the city boundariea on the east, County Road I on the north,
Long Lake Road on the west and 13i9hway 10 on the south.
Park Plannin Council No. 4- This would include Silver View Park
an Lakeei e Park with the border on the northeast side being
Highway 10, County Road H2 on the south and the city boundary on
the weat.
Park Plannin Council No. 5- would include Edgewood Park, Woodcrest
Park, Ran om Park an Rnollwood Park with boundaries of County Aoad H2
on the north, Highway 10 on the east, County Road H on the south and
the city boundary on the west.
Hefore we consider the specific elements of a volunteer program,
staff feels that some time should be spent considering organization
and use of such planning councils. Probably the most improtant
item that needs to be kept in mind is that all volunteers are
people fitst with basic rights and responsibilities relating to
their specific work projects. To chat end, volunteers not only
should, but must have the opportunity to say no or request changes
in the system. It is imperative from staff's perspective that if
we do qet into a full volunteer program such as expanding the volunteer
park councils, that the Park Commission, staff and City Council be
willing to respect their opinions and positions on issues.
There are seven basic elements that are required in organizing a
volunteer program:
1. Preparation and planning.
2. ReCruitment and placement.
3. Orientation.
4. Traininq and Supervision.
5. Record keeping
6. Recognition
7. Program evaluation.
Pre aration and lannin Pr_or to our initiating any further
wor on t e ne g or ood park councils, we as a Park Commiasion,
need to thoraughly outline the program objectivas of our neigh-
borhood park councils. Staff would envision the following
objectives to be accomplished by neighborhood park councils:
�` . A. Develop and canpile a comprehensive leisure time assessment
`���� needa for each of the individual neighborhoods to include
the following iteme:
- 4 -
1. Socioeconomic characteristics of each neighborhood.
�'�, 2. Activities that the residents are presently
� participatinq in.
3. Facilities that the residents are currently
utilizing.
4. Determine what additional park and recreation
facilities would be requested in each neighborhood.
5. A listing of activities that residents would like to
participate in.
Staff would not envision that this would be a
lengthy study or detailed analysis but rather a
form outlining the basic description of the neighbor-
hood and a random sampling to detcrmine what types
of programs or facilities their respective neighbor-
hood desires.
B. To strengthen and reenforce community pride and develop a
stronger neighborhood bond. To work with the Park and
Recreation Department in the development of two annual
neighborhood special events which might include:
1. Neighborhood block parties.
2. Community barbecues.
3. Tug 'o war challenge matches.
4. Street dancing.
5. Neighborhood booya party.
6. Winter fun night; inclu�ing possibly sleigh rides,
neighborhood skating party, family tobogganing and
sliding.
7. Splash parties at Edgewood Community Center.
8. Softball leagues by neighborhood, in cooperation
with the Parks and Recreation Department.
9. Neiqhborhood bzidge parties.
10. Gourmet food clubs, etc.
C. Neighborhood park planning councils would serve as an
extension of the municipal recreation department and
Parks and Recreation Commission on all matters relating
to park development and recreation programs in their
respective area. Staff feels that a reoresentative from
the Park Commission could act as a liason between the
neighborhood park planning councils and the Park and
Recreation Commission.
o�
- 5 -
D. The neighborhood park planning council would take on
annual community park projects such as supervisinq
the winter warming houses, maintaining or assisting
in the maintenance of a neighborhood park site, helping
to construct new equipment or establish one fund raiser
to help their respective neighborhood park.
E. The neighborhood park planning council would review any
park developnent plans within their respective park
planning area prior to approval by the Park Commission
and/ox City Council.
II. Recruitmen and Placement Staff would envision that recruitment
will be the most difficult �,hasc in establishing the neighbor-
hood park planning councils. We would envision that the Park
Caamission would play an active role in recruitment and placement
of residents from their respective neiqhborhoods. Possible
methods that staff could provide assistance in recruitment might
be through neighborhood block party, surveys, local volunteer
coaches, community meetings, or any related recreational or
social activity that could be conducted at their respective
neighborhood park. Once a list of names have been compiled,
we would need to select one person who could spearhead the
effort and become the coordinator for their respective park
neighborhood council. The staff also feels that the residents
from the Groveland Park Foundation could be of great assistance
in the area of recruitment and placement as they have already
been through this initial planning process.
Additional recruitment methods would include; newspaper
articles, Public Service Announcements, speaking engagements,
direct mailings to groups or individuals, placement offices
at volunteer fair, etc.
III. Orientation One must remember that each volunteer will in
fact be a representative of the Park and Recreation Department
and the Park and Recreation Commission. Orientation of the
park planning councilmembers would be the responsibility of our
department and would include the following:
l. In£ormation about our department and how it functions.
2. InEormaiion on our general purpose, objective and philoaophy
of our department.
3. A clear explanation of the volunteers and park glanning's
obligation to the department; the role, the zelationship, etc.
4. Information as to how the particular neighborhood park
council fits into the overall function of the agency.
5. A detailed listing of what would be available as far as
the support services from staff including but not limited
to supplies, phones, clerical work, etc.
- 6 -
In addition, ataff would be preparing an orientation manual
-''1 which outlines our agency as well as what the neighborhood
� park councils responsibilities might be. Once aga3n, staff
would envision involving the Groveland Park Foundation as
much as possible in ehis area.
IV. Trainin and Su ervision Staff would envision that our
epartment program staff wo�ld be responsible for the training
and supervision of the neighborhood park councils either direct-
ly or through indirect supervision. One of the key successes
of the Groveland Park Foundation is that we have been able to
stress upon each of them what an integral part of the recreation
program they have become. We have attempted to treat their agency
as much like our paid staff as possible. Providing them with
required attention, support, etc. and of course recognition.
In addition, they have assumed very real responsibility and
have been accountable for carrying our those tasks which is
an inteqral part of the training and supervision phase.
V. Record Keeping Staff would recommend that some sort of record
keeping such as minutes of ineetings, etc. would be kept so that
we have a means to go back and qrow from previous council's
mistakes and are not continually reinventing the wheel. In
addition to a record as to how the prcess evolves, it will also
provide us an opportunity to inform the City Council as to
exactly what involvement and support there is for the park and
reareation movement within the municipality.
VI. Recoqnition Staff would envision that this area would be
accomplished in many of the traditional means such as certificates,
mention in public aqency publications, area bulletin boards,
special events, luncheons, citywide appreciation dinner, picnics,
etc. In addition, staff would like to think that some type of
recreation incentive program be es[ablished such as volunteers
being paid off in recreation activities such as free or reduced
registration in park and recreation department activities and/or
outside private recreation firms such as possibly eoliciting;
bowling pasaes from Mermaid or local racquetball clubs.
VII. Pro ram Evaluation The neighborhood park planning councils
wou I rece ve that same type of program evaluation that we
provide to eny of our other department programs. Eventuelly,
we would envision that each neighborhood park planning council
would submit an annual program as what they expected to accomplish
which could be reviewed by the Parks and Recreation Commission
to insure continuity and overall program quality on a citywide
basis. Most importantly, the goals for the neighborhood park
Councils muet mesh and remain consistant with the goals of our
department.
�
. _�_
Regardinq tbe development of short range priorities within
�\ the park aystem, ataff would envision that the process would
' follow three eteps:
1. We would first review the parks and open space master plan
once aqain.
Establish priorities on a entire city basis.
2. Take a look at each individual park and prioritize items
within their respective park system.
3. We would cartpile a final lisl which would have an individual
breakdown of items by respective park, their cost and
proposed funding sourcc.
To that end, staff has enclosed a listing of the park priorities
by individual park with an estimated cost for improvement and
a blank space for priority as well as a space for potential
funding source.
Staff would envision that we would probably need to break the
priority list down even further than the enclosed list to reach
within the $50,000 allotment staff is proposing per year but it
will at least give us a position from which to begin.
Staff fully realizes the following two things:
1. There is a great deal of work that needs to be accomplished
once again by the Parks and Recreation Commission.
2. The proposed plans provide somewhat of a different orientation
for our department than from its previous direction.
Staff would envision and welcome any discussions or conversations
relaYing to this issue and do not expect the Commission to take
any specific action at the March 24, 1983 meeting.

OBJBCTIV6S POR RBCRBATION 1985
1. The WellnesalHealthy Lifestyle emphasis in proyramming
community recreation classes has been born. p primary
objective for 1985 will be to nurture the already estab-
liehed wellness programs and continue to introduce the
public to new wellness programs on an on-going basis.
Thia will include continued marketing of existing pcograms
and introductory proyrams. Considering that such self-
improveme�t classes take time to "catch on", I will not be
discourayed, but continue to educate the public with in-
troductory clinics. Four wellness classes will be offered
in the January-February, March-April, June-JUly and Sep-
tember-OCtober brochures.
2. The most populac and sustaining programs are the adult
athletic leagues. Currently eleven leagues are offered.
I wish to expand leagues to include:
Tennis League at Edyewood Courts
Horseshoe League at City Hall
Table Tennis League at City Hall
Sandlot Volleyball Leagues at Silver View
o--�
_,.y. The objective is to add these four additional leagues to
our program in 1985.
3. Another objective for 1985 is to offer opportunities Eor
unstructured, personal, individual fitness. Equipment
available will include a weight training, hydraulic
machine and aupplimentary gadgeta for fitness including
jump ropes, hand weights, and exercise bicycle. This ob-
jec[ive will be achieved with interagency cooperation to
establish an adequate facility, proqram supecvision, and
publicity.
4. An on-going committment to lifelong leisure opportunities
will continue to be a priority. Such programs as cross
countcy skiing, tennis, golE, orchestra, choic, swimming,
and fitness will continue to be offered and expanded upon.
T�ia objective will require the development of a philoso-
phicel statement to be followed by in the pursuit of life-
long Leisure programming. A separate flyer will be print-
ed and inaerted fnto a brochur.e depicting lifelong leisure
aciivieies and tne benefits derived from their participa-
tion.
- 2-
5. Another priority will be to expand programming during the --
daytime at Edgewood Community Center through coordination
of existing programs and other agencies. Opportunities
ahould include tiny tot and adul[ activities. The activi-
tiea must become structured with supervision. A part-time
activity supervisor is warranted at this time to ensure
that programs have the required personal supervision.
I see the need to employ a part-time supervisor of activi-
ties offered at F.dgewood Community Center:
7:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. Monday, Wednesday 6 Friday
b. After conducting an inventory of last year's programs, I
see a void in areas of cultural arts and family activi-
ties. The cultural arts programs have been organized but
not established. I hope to provide greater public aware-
ness of the existing cultural acts programs throug� mar-
keting targeted at groups such as churches, schools,
groups and organizations. I will submit two proposals for
grant monies offered to communities for cultural arts pur-
suits.
7. With the purchase of a new camera, I nope to create a pho-
toqraphy bank oE prints and slides to be used for newspap-
er print, slide presentations and brochure copy. I will
take a roli of pictuces each month.
B. Finelly I wisn to personally scrutinize each and every
program or activity offered to ensure that it indeed fol-
lows a Healthy Lifestyle theme, thus providing a spriritu-
al, physical, or mental benefit to the pacticipant.
n will develop a Healthy LiEestyle criteria for programs.
BIGNI.IGH'1'S AND PITlALLF
� 1984 waa the year that Healthy Lifestyle activities were added as
a new dimenaion to the recreational programs. The concept is to
incocporate an overall benefit to participants who participate in
p�ysical activities as well as "having fun" doing an activity.
Therefore, enjoyment and health benefits have become two over-
ciding criteria in the establishment of department sponsored
cecreational activities. The birth of this new programming con-
cept hes provided the department wiGh good reasoning for provid-
ing recreational and healthy liEestyle activities ... a right to
heppineas and enjoyment and health and fitness thcough the pur-
autt of recreational activities.
Establishment of this overriding criteria in programming rather
then the special Healthy Lifestyle classes themselves has been a
hiqhlig�t in recreational pcogramming 1984.
The pitfall of the last year has been the new and specialized
Healt�y Lifeatyle classes. These classes were initiated wieh
great zeal and energy in publicity and planning. However, the
participation of such classes was miserably low. This is due
primarily because oE the nature of the classes. 'che classes
tended to be more informational rather than participatory and
often were dependent upon behavioral change by participants
thereEore offering an air of intimidation. such programs in-
Clude: Nealthy Eating Habits, Health Awareness, Stress Manage-
ment, Ltstening and Aasertiveness, Chemical and Alcohol Aware-
ness, Freedom from Smoking, Women's Healthy Awareness, Using Your
FooA Intake Effectively, Weight Loss Support Group, Retirement
Workshop, Pecsonal and Family Communications, and Nutrition Nib-
lings for Seniors.
On the othec hand, participetory classes have seen success in
numbers. These classes include: Thinning your Thighs and Slim-
ming your Hips, Jazz Exercise, open Baskecball, open Volleyball,
Men's Basketball League, Ploor Hockey League, Ice Hockey League,
Softball Leagues and Football League (not to mentinn instruction-
al classes such as golf and tennis).
Programming activities in 1984 has given me a clear direction for
pcoqremming in 1985. This direction is in participatory activi-
lies w�ic� lend e re-creative opportunity Eor the physical, men-
tel and eptritual improvement of participants. Such activities
mey include: Sport leaguea, exercise and conditioning proyrams,
fitneea proq[ams, end lifelong activities such as badminton, ten-
nia, golf, jogging, anA table tennie.

EXPENDITURES
527,241.R8
The 351 fund shows a deficit because of the expenses of the
Community Theater Production (approximately 54,000.00) and the
Puppet Wagon (approximately 5538.59). The Puppet wagon is not a
fee supported programand therefore does not expec[ to come out
even.
The Community Theater Production had a deficit of 52,981.00 with
54,000.00 expenditures and 51,019.00 receipts.
Capital Imrpvements from fund 351 include:
Display letters .........5108.32

REVENUBS
530,598.90
352 ADULT RECREATION
Postive balance of 510,280.90
$20,318.00
The 352 fund shows a positive balance because of adult sport fees
and outaider fees for non-resident participants. Also, the gada-
bouG trips usually provide revenue while still providing a good
price to participants because of the beneEits of group prices and
mass transportation.
Capital expenditures from fund 352 include:
Paint sprayer ...............S95f1.00
Channel posts ............... 911.80
Track setter ................ 400.00
�"'�� The wellness program ran into a deficit because of the Healtn
� Fair w�ich did �ot require fees. The costs were approximately
5606.00.
Chalk was also purchased Eor field lining and markings at a price
of 5654.00.

This fund basically is designed to cover special programs that do
not have the benefit of Eees, are not necessarily self-sustaining
ot are unscheduled incomes such as apparal. This is the fund
that Community Theater should be coded. Break-even programs such
as open gyms and co-rec volleyball are in this fund. Picnic kit
supplies as well as "Life. Be In It" items are puchased from this
fund.

198� YBARBND AQUASICS RBPORT
I. EDGEWOOD POOL SUMMARY
A. Reatructure of the swimming lessons program
Major changes occurred in the swimming lesson program
in 1984. The previous structure of the lessons invol-
ved one teac�er per maximum of twelve students, for ten
- 45 minute lessons, at the rate of S13 per student.
T�e new format involved one instructor per maximum of
six - eight students, Eor ten - 35 minute lessons at
S15 per student. This smallee class size allows for
much more individualized attention for each student to
w�ich the general public is very receptive.
T�e actual American Red Cross certified class offerings
basically remain the same, with the exception of the
beginners level. The skill progression was further
broken down by adding a beginner TII class to the pre-
viously existing beginnec I and II levels (similar to
Shoreview's current swimming program). Because the
beginners level is the most d'afficult stage of the
swimming skills progression, it was felt that an addi-
tional increment, and thecefore greater chance to ex-
pecience success, would greatly benefit even the aver-
age learner.
T�ree new features of the current lesson program are
the addition of the Eirst day general information/free
open swim pass s�eet, the "report card" system, and
leSSOn evaluation sheets; [he last two of which are
distributed on the tenth day of [he lessons. The in-
formation sheet telis the parents a bit about the pro-
gram and also gives the parent an opportunity to take
their c�ild to a free evening or weekend open swim.
T�e "report card" system informs paeents exactly what
skills their child is able to perform correctly and
w�at skills t�eir child will need to practice. The
instructor also indicates on t�is form which level of
t�e swimming lessons the child should next be enrolled
in. And, the lessons evaluation sheet gives the par-
ents t�e c�ance to comment on the total swimming pro-
gram.
B. New pool programs
Tlfroug�out the past year, several new aquatic programs
have been successfully offered. These new proyrams
include: adaptive aquatics (complete with volunteer
aide training and one-on-one instructionl, art�ritic
exercise, scuba diving lessons, evening water exercise,
corporate fiGness swims, semi-private lessons, adult
advanced lessons, a�d seasonal passes, which offer dis-
couots for the freyuent pool user.
D.
-z-
Additionally, a fcee American Red Cross "Swim and Stay��
Fit" progcam �as been offered to the ever growing Lap
swimming crowd, wnich i�volves recording the daily
yardage of each participant. Individualized index
ca�ds and wall charts record total mileage and certiEi-
cates, patches, lapel pins, and "I swam 100 miles at
the Edgewood Pool" t-shirts are given to �igh mileage
holders. Since implemented, over 225 swimmers have
joined this program, and twelve people �ave swam [heir
way i�to the '100 Mile Club". (see appendix for 3 day
aurvey of lap swimmer participation and the communities
fcom w�ich this program has attracted the lap swim-
mers). Extended lap swim hours on Monday and Thucsday
afternoons have been made available to accomodate the
public's needs as well.
Physical structure imorovements
During the past yeac, the Edgewood Pool environment has
undergone many changes to bring t�e seventeen year old
pool up to date. The pool room walls were profes-
sionally painted and three modern aquatic figures were
added to accept the pool room atmospnere. Official
rule boards were prepared and posted; and a Red Cross
plaque was �ung to inEorm the public of the aquatic
staff's teaching and guarding qualifications. The res-
cue equipment was updated or replaced, to conform wit�
the Ramsey County Healtlf Department regulations. The
locker room walls, bat�room s�alls and shower rooms
were repainted. The pool hallway walls and doors were
repainted as well.
Additional projects included the reEinishing of the
Lockec room floors with a highly textured paint, the
transferring of the emergency telephone Erom the guard
office to the actual pool room, and the sanding and re-
finis�i�g of all of the old wooden benches. Also,
•Edyewood Pool" signs were added un two outside pool
walls, to make the pool location more visable from the
atreet. These improvemen[s have undoubtedly ennanced
and/or made safer the overall p�ol environment.
Pool program advertising
Two major advertising sources of the seasonal pool
achedules ace the Mounds View Newsletter and the Mounds
View Comunity Education Brochure. Ao[h adver[ising
Eorms have gone through major chanyes, to make �he in-
formation easier far the public to understand.
The format for the Mounds View Newsletter simply lists
all swim lesson levels with a Arief class description
and complete lieting of the dates and times t�a[ tAe
claes will be �eld. The Mounds View Community Educa-
tion Brochure compiles the swimminy schedulea of C�ip-
pewa, Hig�view and P,dgewood poo19; and stresses whic�
perk and recreation department mus[ be contac[ed for
furt�er yuestions aod registration procedures. (See
appendix for samples of each uf th�se two formats.l
-3-
Other pcomotional materials developed in the past year
include: "Healthy People" pool schedule flyecs,
� McDonald tray liner placemats, articles and photographs
in the New Brighton Bulletin, two community health
fairs, an Edgewood Community Education open house,
several promotional flyers to area elementary schools,
and the addition of a specific pool bulletin board for
in-house advertising.

II. LARESIDE BEACH SUMMARY
A. Maior changea implemented ir� [he total beach operation
The 1983 summer program at Spring Lake was researched,
evaluated, and revised for the 1984 summer proyram,
Major chanyes were presented to the staff, and posted
in the aqua[ic manuals, in prepara[ion for this past
summer. The tlates of t�e summer season were June 9-
August 2fi, 1984. The daily hours were moved ahead from
the previous season to 12:30 - R:30 p.m. The yuartl
staff was more closely supervised this past year and an
afternoon "on call" system was implemented, to minimize
excess staff on slow days. All stafE hired were certi-
fied in both American Red Cross advanced lifesaving
and water safety instruction. Staff's skills were
reviewed and tested prioc to the season's onset. The
staff was required to wear red one piece swimsui[s
w�ile on duty and had the option to wear red guard
jackets, white visors, or red guar�l t-shirts. T�is
uniform dress code made the staff much more visible in
t�e public's eye. Three staff ineetings and two news-
lettecs, given throughout the summec months, kept the
guard stafE updated on ongoing changes or concerns.
T�e camaraderie among the staff was very high and a
contributing factor was the group effort at the 3rd
Annual St. Paul Lifeguard Olympics, wnile competing in
lifeguard oriented skills tests, the Mounds View staff
placed 2nd overall, and brought home an impressive
trophy. The staff is already [alking of "yoing for [he
gold" in 1985.
Safety record
Lakeside Park Beach closed i[s season with a perfec[
record with no major acciden[s (defined as an accident
t�at would required hospitalization or stitches). The
beach front was treated with the c�emical copper sul-
fate twice this season, on June 4 and 5, and on July 2
and 3. This resulted in no siynificant cases of swim-
meCS itCh being Ceported to the yuard staff or [he
SpCiny Lake Park anA Mounds View Park anct Recreation
Departments.
Physical struc[ure improvements
S�e beach house was repainted, as wece all the park
grounds tables and trash cans. The parking lot rule
board received a new sheet of plexi-ylass as [he old
sheet had crackeA anA Aarkened. The lifeguard stand
rule boards were updated and repain[ed. The slide
platform was covered wi[h a layec of non-skid, plastic
carpet, and the waterfront marker bouys were anchored
to the lfieline a[ eyual increments. Flowers were
planted near Lhe beach �ouse. and the yrounds were con-
stantly kept tidy, as a result nf a routine maintenance
scheAule.

D. Beach attendance
An attendance count at t�e beacn was taken twice a day
at 3:00 and 7:00 p.m „ to determine t�e approximate
number of bat�ers usi�g the waterfront Aaily. Thie
count reflects t�e actual number of people in the water
only, as it is difEicult to be accurate in counting t�e
number of people occupying [he beachfront or
picnic/playground area. T�e J.O.P.H.F..R. formula was
used:
1. Take an estimate of the midday croad (3:00 p.m.)
and multiply it by 2-1/2.
2. Take an estimate of the evening crowtl (7:00 p.m.)
3nd multiply by 1-1/2.
3. Add these two figures together, fcr an
approximate daily total.
She averaye daily number of people in che water was
recorded as Eollows:
June .......... 259 people
July ........ 366 people
August�........ 299 people
As any type of patron count has not been used at [his
beach previously, it will be necessary to compare the
1984 year with that of [he summer of 1985.

IZZ. COORDINATION WITHIN THE MOUNDS VIEW tiCHOOL DISTRICT
i�e availability of a specialized Ayuatics Director within
t�e tlistrict provided a focal poin[ for area organiaati�ns
to lean on. Several of [he feature� �E this coordinaGion
angle are highlighted below.
A. Combined aAvertisin : The Mounds View Community
E ucat on Bu lettn and School Talk publications both
� displayed an easy to read master scnedule of [he
CAippewa, Highview and Edgewood Pool seasonal proyrams
anA class offerings. These handy sales pieces were
made poasiDle through the Ayuatic Director efforts.
-6-
B. Multi-community in-se[vice tcaining: Shoreview, New
Brighton, and Mounds View Park and Recreation Depart-
ments jointly participated in a skills update and
review seminar to ensure t�e highest quality of life-
guard and teaching staff for each municipality. The
combined effort produced a camaraderie among local
beach and pool staffs; and provided a less expensive
training, per staff inember, in a more professional man-
ner.
Aquatic refecence personnel: During [he past year, new
American Red Cross materials and techniques have been
presen[ed to the S�oreview and New Briyhton Park and
Recreation pool directors, keeping both agencies
abreas[ of ongoing American Red Cross changes. In ad-
dition, this centralized aqua[ic informa[ion source was
available for the general public.
D. Mounds View Swim Club and Northern Shores Masters Swim
Team: The Aquatic Director position has provided t�e
area age group swim club and adult swim team with a
centralized channel for their aquatic scheduling and
concerns.
E. Mounds View Divina Club (Maduca's Maniacs): Assistance
and direction was provided for a new approacn in adver-
tising and enlarging the local diving club.
Specialized aquatic �rogram ativertising: The local
Sho[eview, Mounds View and New Brighton Park and Rec-
reation Departmeni advertising of specialized aquatic
proyrams was coocdinated [hrough the Ayuatic Direc[oc
position, ii.e. adapted aquatics, scuba diving, basic
rescue and water safety, arthritic exercise and Edge-
wood's daytime pool schedule).
IV. SUMMARY OF THE AQUATICS REPORT
In the first full year of the Aquatic Director position,
many positive changes have occurred. The local pool and
beach program were each evaluated, revised, updated and
implemented to lay the foundation for the highest quality
oE aquatic program possible. The result has been a drama-
tic increase in t�e pool participation figures, a sizable
increase in the amount of revenue generaGed, which follows
wit� a notable inccease i� t�e reusable funds. T�e beac�
atmosphere has been grea[ly upyraded and professionalized.
Two unsuccessful ventures included the locker room floor
pain[ing and the art�ritic exercise program. The company
responsible for the selection and application of the Eloor
paini will be testing more appropriate applications in tes[
patches antl will be following up with a new floor applica-
tion, free of charge. (T�e oriyinal coating did not remain
secure under shower water pressure and floor scrubbing).
And the arthritic exercise program was off to a slow start,
due to lack of specific advertising Isenior ci[izen centers
and local doctors offices), cold weather, and cold pool
water. Further promotion and warmer pool wa[er will be
recommended in the warmer sp[ing and summec mon[hs.

1981 FORL�STRY PRO(:RAM SIIMMARY
�"� W7CH F.LM DISEAFE• OAR WILT AND HA2ARbbUS iRRE RF.MOVALS
The year 19A4 was one of increases in bnt� Dutch elm disease
and oak x+ilt. Dead and Aying etms removed numbered one hun-
Ared twenty (120); forty (40) or 33 percent, were Chinese or
Siberian elms. Twenty-two 122) woodpiles were found to con-
tain elm or diseased red oak wood and promptly removed.
The annual elm loss rate increased from last year's .7(1 per-
cent to 1.36 percent. This is near.ly a two-fold increase in
elm removals. Most municipalities saw a comparable rate of
increase. Resea[Chers have pointed to better win[er survival
(�eavy snow conditionsl by the elm bark beetles as a pcincipal
reason for the increases. Additionally, a possible mutation
of the disease itself is being studied.
Non-diseased trees removed Erom parks and boulevards numbereA
six. Foremost among these trees was a 41" diameter cottonwood
removed from Silver View Park.
Trenching as a means of oak wilt control was not utilized in
Mounds View in 1984 for reasons of inechanical breakdown and
lack of crew (autumn).
NORWAY MAPLE WINTER KSLf.
Extreme weather conditions in the fall and early winter of
1983 leA to serious death and dieback in many of the Ci[y's
Nocway maple and w�ite ash varieties. Bspecially hard �i[
were the newly plaoted trees in parks and public areas.
Eighty-four (84) of these trees were removed from City packs.
Nhat could be termed a lack of "hardiness" was generally
responsible for the damage. An unusually mild fall, coupled
with a early and severe winter did not allow t�e trees proper
preparation Eor dormancy. The result was tne death of the
trees "living" combium layer, lack of nutrient and water
translocation anA a visible cracking �r sl��ughiny of the
tree's bark. Often t�ese visible symptoms, especially in [ne
case of partial damage, were not evident until grow[h had com-
menced in t�e spring. Partially dameyed trees, thouyh snme-
w�at disfigured, �atl healthy foliaye, come oE these witl
recover in due time; others wi I1 start a slow cycle of de-
cline.
T[ees on private pcoperty displayed the same inciAence of dam-
age wit� most older trees surviving and most younger trees
9eVeCly damaged o[ Aead. All [otalleAr one hunAred tvelve
(112)treea vere removed from parks hecauac nf tne ahove men-
tioned damage, va�dalism and root failure.
��
OTHER TREE DISEASES
Tree diseases of shade and ornamental trees had an average ..
year in Mounds View. oak anthracnose was presen[ but not �
nearly as damaging as in previous years. Fireblight. apple
scab/rust and verticillium wilt were not present in any great
amount.
Uncommon diseases seen in 1984 included cytospe�a on blue
spruce IAead and dyiny lower branches) and powdery mildew on
floweri�y crabapple.
Much oE the severe winter damaye was mistaken for tree disease
in t�e case of mountain ash, white ash and Norway maple.
DAMAGING TREE INSECTS
Most populations of tree-damaging insects were down in 1984.
Cankerwrm and linden looper activity in the spring was barely
noticeaAle. The more common of the gall problems seemed less
significant as well. Only long spruce cone gall showed any
increase over previous years (on Colorado blue spruce and
Douglas fir).
Fall webworm was again present, but in no great numbers. it
does, however, appear to be more widespread than in [he past.
Other insects promptiog citizea concern aece the imported wil-
low leaf beetle, rose chafer beetle, jackpine sawfly, as�
plant buy and the birch leaf miner.
GYPSY MOTH
By far, t�e one greatest potential threat to all trees in
Mounds View is the gypsy moth. T�is insect, an efficient
defoliator in the larval stage, shows a preference to eating
oak foliage, but will feed on any tree species including pine
and spruce.
For t�e second consecutive year, multiple catches of the adult
ma16 moth have turned up in State anA Fedecal attractant traps
in [he Rnollwood Drive/WOOdale Drive area. A thoroug� foot
seare� for eyg masses in the area by five Ftate/Federal ccews
yieldetl no results. Thus, the source oE inEec[i�n is still
unknown.
Egg masses were found in three ot�er commu�ities in the fall
of 1984. T�ese will all Ae aerial sprayed in the sprinq of
1985. As no masses or other life stages of the moth were
found in Mounds View, no spraying will be done here.
Increasetl trapping will take place in 19R5 with hopes of pin-
pointing the infection source by fall.
JOINT POWERS PRUGRAM
T�e joint powers agreement for focestry services between tne
�� Cities of New Briy�ton and Mounds View has completeA its
foucth year. The final breakdown of time and eyuipment usaye
�ad Mountls View owiny New Briyhton the equivalent of about two
weeks forester's time Eoc equipment usaye and lahor. T�e im-
balanca was to 6e made up by early January when tne usual 6n/
40 alloCation Of time (M,W,F - New RTighton, T,Th - M�unds
Viev) will resume.
CONTRACTED RF.MOVAL OF TREES
Precision Tree Service, the 1984 tree removal rontractor, re-
moved eig�ty-nine 189) diseasetl elm and oak [rees. Six !61
potentially hazardous trees were also removed. Tne averaye
removal cost for diseased trees was 589.12 compareA to 588.32
last year.
TRE6 AND SHRUB PLANTING ON PUBLIC LAND
One hundced twenty-seven (1271 new trees were planted in
Mounds View Parks in 1984. A total of nineteen (191 diEferent
species was represented. Nine (9) trees were dunateA to the
parks by residents.; five (5) oE these were spruce trees be-
taeen 7 feet and 10 feet tall. Most of the above treey were
planted in SLlver View and City Hall Parks.
One �untlred five shrubs were pla�ted, most in the anove twu
parks.
1985 TREE AND LANDSCAPE PLANTING
The planting of about two hundred fifty (250) trees and shrubs
is planned for selecteA areas of Silver View anA Ci[y Hall
Park. Additional replacement [rees will be planted at sites
t�at lost trees to winter kill and vandalicm, Twenty (201 to
thirty (30) trees are scheduled to be moved from the nursery
in S�oceview to selected sites in parks.
FORESTRY PROGRAM PUBLIC RELATIONS
One of the most visible cesults of the forestry proyram coulA
be thB Ttee City U.S.A, award wnic� will be accepted by the
City of Mounds View for the thicd time in 1985. This nation-
ally distriDuted award provides recognition Enr the various
City forestry activities. The desired messaye of tne awarA tn
cesidents i8 that Mounds view cares enouyh about i[s urban
Eorest and City parks t�at it operates a proyram of tree
disease control, park tree and landscape plan[ing, anA tree
care.

An April bus tour of urban forestry professionals, pcofessors
and legislative repcesentives included the Artlan Park compost
site and Silver View Park in its itinerary of stops. The
group seemetl quite interesteA in the concept of gmall acreaye,
heavy use neighborhood parks. Specific in[erest seemeA dir-
ected towards Mounds View's tree planting and landecapiny us-
ing small crews and bare root stock.
The First Annual Regional Urban Foces[ry Conference was held
September 20 anA 21 at the University of Minnesn[a LanAscape
Arboretum in Chaska. Various Eorestry officials from ten dif-
ference atates attended. At the reques[ of the conference

NEALTNY PF.OPLE PAOGRAM
RESULTS
The Healthy People wellness program was developed to
conpliment the existing Park and Recreation offerings for
the eitiee of Mounde View and New Brighton. The proqrem
was lnitiated oecember 1983. The program ehue far, was
succeasful to the extent that it served to initiate an
imaqe change toward a more comprehensive 'wellness' concept,
and it generated opportunities for individuals to increase
awareness of good health practices and participate in
positive behavior change activities. An aggressive marketing
strategy served to disseminate quality materials to the
residents, local media and area businesses, churches, and
schools.
The development of program materials, theme, logo and
reward syetem went well. The community needa were assessed
and pilot classes were offered in response to these needa.
The participant responae was 50-708 of offerings being
filled, with a gradual increase over the first three sesaions.
This was consistent with the national statistic that statea;
a new health class o££erings requires three consecutive
offeringe to allow adequate participation io meintain s
proqram. This ia also similiarly related to the three
documented stages of consumer behavior, being; awareness,
peraonal responsibili,y and choice; and action.
� A marketing strategy was implemented with the idea that
"the ability to offer a quality service is simply not enough
to achieve success. Marketing and promotion is required."
(MOdern Marketinq, 1979) The average American is exposed to
over 1,000 ads daily, most of which never break through their
perceptual screens. New ads need to be exposed as many as nine
times for awareness and action to occuz. (USA Today, 1984)
The identified Healthy People population who compiled the
majority of participanis was consistent with the national
siatistic that tells us the trend is for 30-CS year old male
and specifically females and the over 65 year old, who are
increasingly becoming an important consumer segment. (MOd. Mar.)
I would add that the pre-school progzams are well attended also.
liighlights of the program include enthusiastic support
by the participants and individual desire expressed toward
psoitive li£estyle change. Positive response to [he reward
system of point accumulation and t-shirt distribution for
recognition. Znereased awareness of qood health practices by
the staff of the two cities involved, and several articles
covering the program by the Mpls. and St. Paul papers and
'Minneaoia Cities' journal Emphasizing the innovation by a
municipal sector implementfng a wellness proqram. The Healthy
People Wellness Fair in Feb. 1984 pzovided momentum and enthusiasm
� for the program �-
Con't...
� Disappointments included; limited enrollment in the new
, health class offerings. Participant evaluations, however, --,
.,. served to reinforce enthusiasm from those participating, yet
significant revenues were not generated as had been 'hopefully'
speculated. A comprehensive wellnesa program most certainly
encompaeaea all physical activities, more apecifically aerobic
exercise and fiLness. These classes were well attended and
continue to inCrease in participation, similiar to the national
fitnesa trend. The health clasaes seem to follow a seasonal
peak and ebb of enrollment similiar to specific phyeical
activities, yet this distinct pattern 1s not yet clearly defined.
Lack of adequate planning time to initiate a quality
promotional strateqy and lack of adequate monies to match the
goal of aggressive, quality marketinq was seen as a siqnificant
early introduction obstacle. How much momentum was lost, that
cannot be regained is hard to measure, yet it can be assured
some irrepaizable damage in a'tough sell' like behavior chanqe
proqrama, such as wellnese, was done.
Lack of understanding of a futuristic concept, marketing
and creatfve atzategies by key individuals in a conservative
field euch as park and recreation wea certainly a formidable
obatacle. This perhaps contributed to inferior traininq of
inatructore, quality and innovativenese of brochure and other
,.,� marketing strateqies. This fremework could have been aincerely
justified from past experience of what the consumez has wanted
�� os what hae not worked in the community. Perhapa thie perspective
also appliea to wellneas offerings, yet one uniqve distinction
categorizes what motivates people to participate in wellness
clasees and recreation (fun), is often in wellness people are
wotivated by reluetant discipline, deprivation with an underlying
teeling of 'qetting my life together' which is a very 'hard sell'
in any market. The trend is normally to see a person motivated
Snto setion by desiring to repair damaqe, change poor behaviors,
and �euch later they come to realize the much greater motivaior
becowes enhaneed feelinqe of well-being. The big question is
how to motivate people into action considering their thought
pattarns of personal reluotance noL fun, enjoyment like recreation.
These failings need be re-defined from the perspective
of e pilot project of a new concept in a new area, where failings
are only viewed as lmpetus to change atrategies. A dynamic
ongoinq evaluation and assesament of consumer needs assures
eventual progress in any new project.

Puture directions of the Healthy People program may very
well include: 1) a large community Health Fitness Center, well
ettended by ell ages, or 2) a personalized coun�elinq service '
•o people can aupplement their medical care through goal-setting
and educatfon, oz 3) marketi�q of eervfces to the surroundinq
community buaineaeen, churchee, echoole, etc., and lastly,
4) inereased participation by a satiefied conaumer who chooaes
to make qood health and fitnesa a'way of life' and takes pride
in their community and displays a aense of ownership and commitment
to the Healthy People proqram. Ultimately succesa would be
accompliehed if but o�e heart attack is prevented and the quality
of life is Smproved for one individual within the communities of
Mounds View and New Brighton.

Supporting Data Program Resul.ts
�;
The concept of healthier lifestyles is qenerally we11
accepted, yet'hard to sell. People are reluctant to become
involved `in behavior changing activities for a number of
obvious reasons. Thus`the entire concept of viewing wellness
as enhancinq and not deprivation is essential to the success
of the Healthy P�ople �rogram. In mcasurement terms, it is
difficult to measure behavior changes, expecially in a large
municipal segment, with no study control measures. The
or�ly standards in which to compile results would
ve numbers o£ participants in the program.
lthough response of those involved has been favorable,
suggested records to keep over the three year period would
be recommended:
-Revenues from Healthy People classes
-Revenu�s from exercise/fitness classes
-Age, sex of participants in each class
-Receptive populations within the community in which to
provide services, l.e. business, schools, churches
-Compliance rate for participants in an ongoing fitness class ,
(indicating lifestyle behavior changes) °
