Park and Recreation Commission Update
The primary items on the Park and Recreation Commission agenda of June 11, 2003 were
approval of major park uses for Hillside, Lions and Woodland Trails Parks.
There is a unique event coming to the City of Elk River in August. On August 3, 2003 the
Twin Cities Unicycle Club will be hosting the North American Unicycling Championships
and Hillside City Park will be the site of the Mountain Unicycling Competition. This was
approved by the Commission with a deposit of $500 and a fee of $3.00 per rider not to
exceed $500.
The other major park uses include a Back-to-School Concert at Lions Park and fundraiser
for Tom Thompson at Woodland Trails Park on July 12, 2003.
The Commission also approved the final playground plan for Highlands West Park. Staff
anticipates that this playground will be installed mid to late August.
