Pazks & Recreation Committee Meeting Minutes 07-06-11 maintenance and a total reconstruction would be needed. The committee discussed the submitted bids and felt that Court Surfaces & Repair would provide a more extensive resurfacing procedure than Lee's Sport Surfacing. Motion was made by Committee Member Amundsen, seconded by Chairperson Branch to recommend to City Council acceptance of the submitted bid from Court Surfaces & Repair, Inc. for $3,690 to resurface the tennis court at Eagle Park. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously. Movies in the Park — Select Movies & Eauiument Committee Member Peterson felt the committee should attempt to find a sponsorship for Movies in the Park to help offset costs of a higher lens projector. With the projector used last fall it was difficult to see anything on the screen until the sun actually went down and this could be improved on with a different projector. Committee Member Peterson is also trying to figure out how to have the movie in the hockey rink as sitting in the grass was undesirable. The movie in 2010 was projected onto the warming house overhang. The cost will be reduced this year because of the purchase of the PA system, only some of the equipment will need to be rented. The movie itself is the most expensive part. Chairperson Peterson suggested letting Creative Kids pick out the movie(s). Bulletin Board Color for Kiosk Mr. Greg Burmeister, Trail Project Manager, asked that the committee look at colors for the kiosk cork I board and make a recommendation. Ms. Stephan had inquired as to whether the color will fade in the sun and it will, so this affected the choice the committee made. Instead of going with a darker color, they selected light blue which should fade less and somewhat matches the color on the City Logo. Ms. Stephen will pass this information on to Mr. Burmeister. Festival of the Lakes 8K Run/Walk/Skate I Free Comfort Yoga as Part of Fete des Lacs was added to the agenda as information to the committee. !, Ms. Thia Casanova will be offering a free yoga session in Hidden Spring Park from 3— 4 p.m. on Saturday, July 30�' and would like to be included in any advertising that is done for Fete des Lacs events. Chairperson Branch stated it was too late too include this item in the adds which will go in the paper as the final copy has been sent already, but there are other venues such as the web site. Fire Department Waffle Breakfast Fund Raiser was added to the agenda for consideration in adding to the Fete des Lacs advertising also. The Fire Department Committee responsible for the open house and associated events being held on Saturday, July 30�` is also meeting Wednesday, July 6th so a schedule of their events will not be available until Thursday, July 7�'.
