To: Community Recreation Board Members
From: Michele Bergh
RE: Lions Club Project
As mentioned at the April 16th Community Recreation Board meeting, the Elk River
City Council has now approved the Conditional Use Permit for the Lions' Club
project in Lions Park. This project is an addition to the existing shelter, which will
include a community room, offices for Community Recreation, and an office for the
Lions. If all goes well, the facility will be complete and ready to occupy this fall.

Staff Report
May 2001
Summer Programming and Staff
We have received many compliments on our summer schedule and have several full classes. As of May
8th, we have taken 894 registrations. About half of this is for t-ball classes. The registrations are pretty
well distributed amongst the various classes offered. Some of our pee wee classes, our tennis classes,
and our gymnastics classes are full.
I am continuing to work on staffing for the summer. I don't anticipate needing to hire many new staff
members this year.
Computers/Technology
We are experiencing some problems with our computers. We currently have 4 people accessing the
registration software and have found this bogs the system and slows down everyone's computers. We
are working on adding memory to the computers and have cut down to having two people taking
registrations at a time. We have a limited amount of money available in the budget and will be using it
to upgrade what we have as much as possible to help with this problem. We are really happy with the
software and find that it works well with our needs otherwise.
Field Reservations
We become quite overwhelmed for a couple of weeks every year with field reservations and, once the
initial schedule is complete, things become much more manageable. This year was a slightly bigger
struggle with the late winter. People were very anxious to get out and start practicing and we asked
them not to use the fields to give them time to heal after the long winter. Unfortunately, many of the
coaches do not respect this request and a few of the fields were tore up. All Girls Softball and TRSA
reservations have been taken care of for the season. The second half of the season needs to be scheduled
yet for Youth Baseball practices. This will be done in a couple of weeks.
