Minutes of Regular Parks and Recreation Committee Meeting <br /> • Page 2 <br /> clean-up has been so minimal, suggested perhaps the Parks Committee meet <br /> and concentrate on cleaning one park. <br /> It was determined that Buckley will set up a plan for Arbor Day, and <br /> notify the committee; may possibly cancel the regular April meeting of <br /> this committee on April 26, meeting at a park instead on Saturday, April <br /> 30. An agenda will be sent you when his plan is complete. <br /> Spring Program Report <br /> Buckley reported all adult softball leagues full; about nine or ten teams <br /> were turned away because of lack of space. <br /> All coaches of youth sports are being asked to attend a training course <br /> leading to certification with the National Youth Sports Coaches <br /> Association, the cost of which will be paid by fees received from <br /> participants. Coaches will be asked to sign the "Code of Ethics" pledge <br /> sponsored by this organization. <br /> Miscellaneous/New Business <br /> Buckley stated that he is moving the summer instructional soccer program <br /> to Cummings Park hockey rink area. In past seasons the program was <br /> scheduled at Hazelnut Park hockey area. The reason for changing the <br /> location is: <br /> - the low area at Hazelnut is a sheltered area from the wind - this is <br /> • most desirable during the winter, but a real disadvantage during the <br /> hot summer months. <br /> - the hockey area at Cummings is more accessible for participants and <br /> parents. <br /> Adjournment <br /> The meeting was adjourned at 9:01 p.m. <br /> Submitted by Shirley Marshall <br /> NOTIFICATION OF THE NEXT MEETING DATE WILL BE SENT BY JOIN BUCKLEY. <br />
