crowds of 200 - 250 people for every show. Come out and seeing what is causing all the excitement. In January and February of 2012, the Centerville Parks and Recreation Committee will once again hold a skating party at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park. On at least one of the two occasions, there will also be a free hay ride. Almost all events are accompanied by popcorn and hot chocolate. Park Programs are managed by Centerville's all volunteer Parks and Recreation Committee. There are volunteer opportunities for individuals or organizations that desire to see Centerville thrive by providing park amenities and programs alike. Come and join the Committee or perhaps your organization would like to take ownership of a community project. Over the past two years, the City has benefited from three Eagle Scout projects. These projects have installed bird houses, planted trees and installed the new City flag pole and veterans memorial at Comer Stone Park. We also want to add trail signs and park benches between the county trail and Centerville Lake. The goal is to make modest park improvements without using tax dollars. Perhaps a garden club, master gardener, church group, Boy Scout or Girl Scout troop could adopt a park and keep it clean and weeded. Those interested in volunteering should contact Pat Branch, the Parks and Recreation Committee Chairperson. (pbranch @centervillemn.com)
