We had a great summer full of activities this year. The weather cooperated for the most
part this summer as only a couple of cancellations were necessary.
Some of the highlights this summer included the following: Summer Playground
Program - 292 participants, Tot Lot Program - 164 participants, Tennis Lessons - 95
participants, and two adult trips - 53 participants. The numbers were higher this year for
our Summer Playground program and the Tot Lot program. These programs should
continue to grow as the community keeps getting bigger.
The last of our summer activities, Youth Day Camps, began last week and concludes this
week out at Cleary Lake Regional Park. Once again we have full camps for each session.
The other week long camp offered to area youth was a Theater <:::amp. This ran during
the first week of August and attracted 20 participants who had the chance to "create a
play" and present it to their parents. This was the third year this program was offered and
it continues to fill up year after year. Next year, we may look at the possibility of offering
two theater camps.
In addition to the above mentioned programs, the Parks and Recreation Department also
helped out with the Lakefront Day Festival held on August 5th. The summer playground
leaders coordinated the childrens games before and after the parade. There were
approximately 450 kids who participated in one or more of the games offered.

The lifeguards and beach attendants at Sand Point and Watzls beaches will continue to
work through the last weekend in August. This summer has been quite a busy one for the
beach staff. Parking revenue is above normal as is concession revenue due to the hot
weather experienced this summer. Along with the "daily users" of the beach, many group
picnics have been held out at the beaches. Some of the typical group users include:
birthday parties, company picnics, family reunions, class reunions, and general family get
togethers.

The prep work is well underway for the 1995/96 Dance season which will begin in
mid-September. A new three year lease is being negotiated with Priordale Mall which
would keep the program in its same location. The roof and air conditioning concerns
have or will be taken care of prior to the start of the season.
In addition, a new dance floor will be constructed in the studio to give the dancers and
instructors a more suitable surface to dance. This particular floor consists of a
multi-purpose vinyl floor covering that sits on a wood sub-floor. Our dance program
director recommended the floor that is being installed. The nice thing about this
particular floor is that it is portable. Therefor, if and when the program were to ever
change locations, the floor could be taken with.
