Page 3 of 3 program at Island Lake. Also, it should be noted that the we did not hold any winter after school programs in 2022 as they did not meet the minimum requirement of six participants. For ice skating, we had 17 participants this past winter. Staff would recommend we forego the classes this winter that we cannot effectively plan for, such as, before and after school programming at Valentine Hills and skating lessons but we would continue with the outside instructor led classes. We would also not plan on holding events, such as, gingerbread house decorating, letters to Santa, or breakfast with Santa. For reference Attachment B and Attachment C give a listing of the classes from November through March, Attachment B is classes that were held while Attachment C is classes that were cancelled likely due to low enrollment but could have been for other reasons. Please be aware that it is likely the November and March months might be picking up fall and spring classes, winter classes typically start in December, January, or February. Once Staff is able to make decisions regarding programming, or Council gives sufficient direction, we can craft the Winter Recreation Guide. Depending on offerings, we may make this Winter Rec Guide a smaller insert into the newsletter or it could be a standalone mailing. Budget Impact There will be a budget impact on the General Fund as all Recreation revenues and expenditures flow throw the General Fund, but exact impacts will not be known until decisions are made on programming. It should be noted that winter programming does not represent a significant portion of the budget, as most programming happens in the summer months.
