7. Make markers and signs for all kilometer and mile marks for races and for the community to use so they will <br />know how far they have walked or jogged. Also prepare a large map to be posted at the course for use by the <br />public. <br />8. Build a temporary fence along the parking lot to keep snowmobiles and four wheelers from going on the land. <br />YEAR TWO GOALS 2012-2013 is <br />1. Run an electric line from the present box on the property to the finish line area. <br />2. Bring in gravel to upgrade and improve the parking lot for teams and officials. <br />3. Build a finish structure. <br />4. Move the old portable press box building ( 8 feet by 24 feet) at the U to the finish line area. <br />5. Start putting split rail fence along the finish and starting area to keep spectators back from the runners/skiers. <br />6. Plant small pine and poplar trees along various areas of the course. <br />7. Mow an area near the finish line for team tents. <br />YEAR THREE GOALS 2013-2014 <br />1. Host the first college and high school races. <br />2. Meet with U coaches on a plan to bring the Griak Invitational to the course in 2014. <br />3. Host the Roy Griak Invitational at the course. (fall of 2014) <br />4. Mow an area near the pond on the southeast portion of the property so spectators and the public can use it for <br />picnics and a gathering place during events. <br />5. Begin grading the hillside on the north end of the course that spectators can use to get an optimal view of the <br />races. <br />YEAR FOUR GOALS 2014-2015 <br />1. Have the initial investment of $30,000 paid off. <br />2. Continue to improve the course with projects such as building a shed for ATVs and equipment to be used at the <br />course. <br />3. Start raising funds to expand and pave the parking lot areas as well as other projects that seem appropriate for <br />the enhancement of the facility. <br />HOWWILL THIS PROJECT BE FUNDED? <br />1. The initial investment of $30,000 will be funded with a short term loan from Gary and Suzy Wilson and the initial <br />gift of $5,000 from the Women's CC/Track Booster Club at the University of Minnesota. <br />2. The ongoing funds will be raised through a fund raising campaign by Gary and Suzy Wilson and Dave and Patti <br />Percival. <br />A brochure and a web page will be produced on the project. Then various volunteers will create and implement <br />ideas on how to raise funds such as the sale of commemorative bricks. These bricks would be used to line the <br />finish line area. <br />3. Funds will also be raised by renting the facility for various meets and activities. We would propose that half of <br />the funds raised would go back into the loan payoff and improvements to the course and the related facilities. <br />The other half would go back to the City of Hugo. <br />4. Gifts in Kind will be requested from various companies in the Twin Cities, friends of Gary and Dave, alums from <br />the U of M, as well as individuals from the surrounding communities that might have a vested interest in the <br />development of this property. <br />
