10.2. SR 08-07-2017 EOty1� ,.,�� Request for Action River To Item Number Mayor and City Council 10.2 Agenda Section Meeting Date Prepared by Work Session August 7, 2017 Cal Portner, City Administrator Item Description Reviewed by Recreation Programming Reviewed by Action Requested Receive information and provide feedback as necessary. Background/Discussion Staff has had conversations regarding recreation programming. There are a number of other entities providing youth, teen, and adult recreation options in our area. A few of the questions staff would like to get feedback include: What are the council's vision and goals for programming? What areas are we missing? Are there activities we should provide? Are we duplicating efforts? Would the council be interested in a more entrepreneurial approach to programming? Significant changes to programming will take significant time as seasons of play are typically planned 3-6 months in advance.

Our top three strategic projects include: construction to expand and improve Rivers Edge Commons Park; preparing for the grand opening this fall of the William H. Houlton Conservation Area; and, completing the community center feasibility study to evaluate our recreation facilities. I wish to focus attention on the feasibility study that is now being developed by JLG Architects. The feasibility study started in January of 2016 with community engagement sessions and a public meeting in February to gather additional input from the community regarding our existing facilities and future needs. We have been evaluating the Activity Center (55+), the Ice Arena and Lions Park Center to determine if they should be renovated, replaced or consolidated into a centrally-located facility. Our facilities have been in use for roughly 20 to 40 years and the rapidly escalating costs of operations, major systems repairs and replacement have called for a review of our community facilities. Please look to May 2016 when recommendations on our community recreation facilities is scheduled to be made to City Council. 3 Table of Contents 763.635.1150 www.ElkRiverMN.gov/Register Youth Programs Adult Programs General Parks and Rec Office Closed Monday, May 30 Monday, July 4 Monday, Sept 5 Check us out on 2016 Sponsors Sincere appreciation is extended to the individuals, businesses and organizations that have graciously given sponsorships to benefit Elk River Parks and Recreation participants.

SNAG is simple, effective, inexpensive, and- most of all, fun. The program is designed specifically for newcomers: kids of all ages who have had very little or no exposure to golf. SNAG uses special equipment, all provided by the instructor, to teach the fundamentals of golf in any open space! Starting New at Golf can be intimidating, a bagful of clubs, hard, little balls, holes that seem a mile away, scary! SNAG takes all of that away, SNAG teaches you the basics, and gets you ready for the golf course. Learn to roll (putt), chip, pitch, and launch (drive) before you take on an actual golf course! Instructor Doug Dahl, is a Master Golf Teaching Professional, USGFT Certified, and has taught professionally since 2003 Girls Slow Pitch Softball Girls Slow Pitch Softball is an in- house program that recognizes many girls choose this program for the opportunity to play with friends.

EARLY CHILDHOOD FAMILY EDUCATION (ECFF) FOR FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN BIRTH TO BEFORE KINDERGARTEN & y lb DISCUSSIONS ECFE is based on the idea that the family provides a child's first and most significant learning environment and parents are a child's first and most important teachers. Parents shape a child's development and set the stage for future learning and growth. That's why ECFE offers a variety of classes that provide information, encouragement and support for children AND their parents. » ECFE offers hands-on learning opportunities for you to explore new experiences, meet other families, and grow and learn together with your child. » ECFE serves all families in the ISD 728 with children age birth to Kindergarten. » All ECFE instructing staff have, at minimum, a four-year degree plus teaching licensure in Parent Education, Early Childhood Education or Early Childhood Family Education and provide the quality education parents expect. ► WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE COME TO ECFE PARENT/CHILD ACTIVITIES? » Staff will greet you and the room will be set up with age-appropriate activities. » Usually there are three parts to the sessions: time together for parents and children, parent discussion time and children's activity and exploration time. » Non -separating classes are classes where the parent discussion is in the room with the children. » Separating classes are classes where the parents move to a different room and children remain in their classroom for activities. ► WHAT ARE THE ACTIVITIES? » Activities will be set up in the classroom. There will be a variety of activities depending on the ages of the children. » You and your child can choose what you want to try; we encourage you to "take your child's lead" and enjoy the special time together. » At times we will do group activities with all parents and children. 01 WHAT HAPPENS DURING PARENT DISCUSSION TIME? While your child participates in the children's time in the ECFE classroom with the Early Childhood Educator, you'll meet with parents and the ECFE Parent Educator. » Parent discussion will be in the children's room for parents with young children; it will be in another room for parents with older children. » It's a comfortable situation where you'll be able to talk about the joys and concerns of parenting. You'll be able to take time to look at and consider many ideas. Research tells us that getting information and support for our role as parents is one of the most important things we can do for ourselves and our children! ► WHAT HAPPENS DURING THE CHILDREN'S TIME AND HOW WILL PARENTS BE INVOLVED? » The children participate in activities in the classroom when moms, dads or caregivers participate in the discussion. » The Early Childhood Educator prepares the room and activities gauged for the children's ages. » Both teacher -led and child -initiated activities are planned. » In some classes, parents take turns working with the teacher in the classroom. This provides an opportunity for parents to observe children's time and how their child responds. It also provides an opportunity to learn more about children's development and behavior. It's a chance to get involved and have fun! If you need more information, or would like to visit one of our ECFE classrooms and meet an Early Childhood or Parent Educator, contact the ECFE office at 763-241-3524 to schedule an appointment.

It is a certified outdoor classroom space devoted to reconnecting children with the natural world through developmentally appropriate nature education. There is a growing nature deficit occurring with children today. It is believed that in today's scheduled, indoor, and screen - heavy environments children are not getting enough interaction with the outdoors. By providing a complete mix of activities, children with a variety of needs and learning styles are engaged. Research has shown that high-energy children tend to be more focused when taught in an outdoor natural setting as all their senses are being stimulated. It takes many volunteers to help maintain our beautiful and lush gardens at the Nature Explore Center. From Spring through Fall, volunteers gather several times a month to weed, trim and clean up the gardens. Call our coordinator, Liz, today at 612-578-0357 or stop in our office to sign up to be a volunteer! EARTH DAY CELEBRATION Celebrate Earth Day by taking care of a piece of our earth!

Knowledgeable instructors will focus on technique, flexibility and safe use of the 1 -meter board. On -deck video feedback allows the coach and diver to review and critique all aspects of a dive. Divers must be able to swim 10 yards repetitively.

Individuals, including the over 65 crowd, with the most steps from each of the 24 participating communities, also have the opportunity to be on field before a Twins home game during the 2017 season. As a Step To It participant, you will keep an ongoing total of the steps you take during the challenge. Using a conversion chart from the website, other activities such as biking, skateboarding, Tai Chi, or even just mowing the lawn can count toward overall steps. The website allows you to record your steps online or your step totals can be called in or faxed. Best of all, it is free! This challenge is for Hennepin County; however, if you don't live in Hennepin County and want to participate, you can still register under the City of Rogers. Register by going to the Step To It Challenge website at www.steptoit.org. School challenges are also eligible to have the Twins' mascot TC come to their school.
