• Staff Report
April 2000
Staffing
We have hired a new staff person to replace Dan in the office. Her name is Darci Stiff. She is new to
the area and has many years of office experience as well as experience dealing with the public. She
started on Monday, April 10 and is working 5 hours a day, 4 days a week and will be working programs
for us as well. She is doing wonderfully and we are happy to have her here. We have also filled both
positions at Emporium and I am confident that we have hired two very good people for the positions.
Summer Programs
Summer programming is just about complete. The brochure is at the printer now and we are working on
a flyer for the schools. We have also incluo;d a 1-page insert into the Elk River Current about our
upcoming programs. We are looking at possible adding another basketball camp for elementary age
kids as well as the cheerleading program. We've had wonderful feedback about the cheerleading
program but are having difficulty finding someone to run it. We are going to keep trying and see if we
can't get something set up before school is out so we can do some special marketing.
Emporium
We have concerts booked every weekend, except the holiday weekends, between now and the end of
July. We try to keep them on Fridays as it is easier to staff and twice a week would be too much if we
• did it all the time but they are starting to ask about Saturdays since the Fridays are filled. As the weather
becomes warmer, we are having more kids hang out outside which is a challenge to deal with. They are
generally well behaved but it does get louder when more of them are hanging around outside.
Web Site
We are almost done putting our summer programs on our web site. I would encourage you to visit it if
you haven't recently. We have completely redone the appearance of it and I think it looks really nice.
People will be able to view all of our programs, print out registration forms, and get other information
about Community Recreation and youth associations. Since November, when we started our web site;
we have had over 300 people look at it. We've had about 30 people look at it in the last two weeks so I
believe it will be well used this summer.
Youth Associations
We are very busy working with the youth associations to coordinate field needs. We will be scheduling
practices and games for softball, baseball and soccer. This will be somewhere around 200 coaches that
we will need to schedule fields for. Our office is working with the associations to figure out the best
procedure to follow for the practices so that it is easy for everyone to follow. We are planning to issue
permits to each coach so that they will have documentation showing that they have the field reserved.
Skate Park
There has been some renewed interest in the skate park here in Elk River so we are working on getting
that up and running again. There are some ramps that have been completed that some students are
. interested in placing on the site but we need to wait for information from our insurance carrier.
Lutheran Brotherhood has also contacted us about possibly donating $500 to help develop the park.
Update on Field Reservation Policy
I am working with the City of Elk River attorney to develop a policy. He will forward me something as
soon as it is complete. I believe we will need to wait until next year to implement this policy if we make
the change as the season will be too far along this year before we get have a new policy finalized.
