The Laurel Volunteer Fire Department has requested that the pool be used on Wednesday, August 27 for wet suit training/rescue. The committee sees no problem with this but Jim will check with the city attorney concerning the need for lifeguards, etc. The area near the batting cage near Athletic Field is in need of weed cutting and cleaning. The summer crew will take care of this. A building planned by the baseball organization in that area will help in the future with such a problem. Jim will talk to the group about clearing away the piles of top soil and scoria, etc. Respectfully submitted, YI? Donna G. Kilpatrick, chairman
