City Council Agenda Report
City of Scandia
14727 209th St. North
Scandia, MN 55073 (651)433-2274
Action Requested: Review the proposed Summer 2008 Park and Recreation Program
Schedule.
Deadline/Timeline: Brochure will go to the printer in mid-March.
Background: • Recreation Program Coordinator Marty McKelvey has prepared
her proposed 2008 summer program schedule. It was reviewed by
the Park and Recreation Committee at their February 4 meeting.
• We propose to continue the successful partnership with Camp
Lakamaga begun in 2007. The Council will need to approve the
agreement at a future meeting; we expect the terms to be similar to
last year. Program fees will depend to some extent on Lakamaga's
requests,but will cover all out-of-pocket costs.
• Several other programs will be held at the Community Center
(tennis, skateboarding and the popular Clea.t Kits program.)
• Some of the programs that did not receive enough interest last year
(such as golf,biking,and lacrosse)have been dropped.
• In 2007,we offered several adult tours and trips(plays, Twins
game, etc.)which were not successful. This year,the adult
offerings will be the Great Decisions program(a year-long,
montlily program starting in February) and a free"Gazden Show"
which will be held on Saturday, March 29. It will feature local
speakers on a variety of gardening and landscaping topics.
Recommendation: The Council should review and discuss the preliminary program
schedule, and give any direction to staff you may deem appropriate.
