r <br /> 17 <br /> 1450 W. HIGHWAY 96. ARDEN HILLS. MINNESOTA 55112 633-56W <br /> January 12 , 1984 <br /> Mr. Mike Heffran <br /> Secretary - General Manager <br /> North Suburban Community Foundation <br /> State Fairgrounds <br /> St. Paul , MN 55108 <br /> Dear Mr. Heffran: <br /> At the January meeting of the Arden Hills' Park and Recreation <br /> Committee , Chairman David Sand informed the group of the North <br /> Suburban Community Foundation 's interest in discovering <br /> potential recreational needs in the suburban area. During the <br /> discussion , the following programs were mentioned: <br /> Swim and Gym Activities for *Handicapped Participants <br /> A group -home for handicapped individuals—is-- located in Arde.A <br /> Hills . These individuals cannot be main-streamed into regular <br /> programs because of their depand for one-on-one supervision. <br /> Financial support for a program for the handicapped is greatly <br /> needed. <br /> Senior Citizens Program <br /> While seniors ' activities are sponsored by the 621 School District <br /> and neighboring communities , Arden Hills ' seniors do not have <br /> a program they can call their own . The organization of a seniors <br /> club would provide an enrichment program for Arden Hills ' seniors. <br /> Seed money is needed for this activity. <br /> Latch Rey Program <br /> There is a need for child care for school-aged children while <br /> their parents are away at work or school. An extended day <br /> program would provide a supportive , safe environment for these <br /> children. Program fees will cover some of the expenses - <br /> additional support will be necessary. <br /> Thank you for your interest and support. <br /> Sincerely , <br /> • Jo n T .
