the city and also at the pool will be $1.00 each. Tickets sold
last year will be honored this year.
Permission was given for a non-drinking motorcycle group to camp at
Riverside Park on June 18th, 19th and 20th and the Yellowstone
Bowmen will be having a tournament there on June 4th and 5th. The
charge is $3.50 per unit for any group involving over 10 units.
Ann Easton reported concerning the summer recreation program.
Several activities are being planned. She will have registration
held in the school either the first week in June or the last week
in May. She will take care of advertising the registration.
Swimming lessons will begin after July 4th.
Jim reported on the installation of a water fountain near the
shelter in Thomson Park as well as a new frost-free pipe for
filling the ice skating rink.
A ruling on the $11,000 being carried on the books for new park
development in existing parks reveals that we may use those funds
for new development in existing parks. Members of the committee
are reviewing each park and will come up with a priority list for
best utilization of the fund.
Discussion was held on the condition of the tennis courts. Members
felt that we shouldn't keep pouring money into filling the cracks.
Finding funds for building new courts was discussed and we will
check with Cenex and Burlington to see if any grants could be
applied to this project. Dave was going to contact the school to
see if they would participate in a resurfacing project for the
tennis courts. At this point the courts are almost unusable.
Students on the tennis team from the high school are being bussed
to Billings to practice because our courts are deemed dangerous.
Respe tfully submitted,
Donna Kilpatrick, Chairman
