8~GLE WATERSKI SHOWS City of Centerville Parks & Recreation Committee 1880 Main Street Centerville, MN 55038 Dear Members, On behalf of Bald Eagle Water Ski Shows I would like to thank you for taking the time to meet with us during your.1ast meeting. It was very gracious of you, on such short notice, to allow us to present our ideas for consideration in the planning process for the new 1601 Lamott Park. We enjoy being part of the community through our weekly ski shows and practices at our home site at Waterworks on Centerville Lake and would like to explore every opportunity to continue to grow with the community. Our team is open to all regardless of age or skiing ability and we are hoping to attract even more members from the 'local area. Last year we had a great tumout for our leam-to-ski clinic prior to our Fete des Lacs ski show and many expressed interested in - membership for this year. We know there are some challenges and unknowns at this point, but we would like the chance to work with you to investigate the feasibility of our proposal. Two of the concerns expressed at the meeting were the type of dock and water depth. In regards to the dock, the club would be responsible for putting.it out in the spring and removing it In the fall. We also think that we can incorporate a removable or retracting section at shore and signage into the dock design to prevent unauthorized use. The water depth issue could possibly be overcome by adding dock sections, but additional evaluation will be needed to determine if it is feasible in this area of the lake. Again we thank you for your time and service to the community. We look forward to following up with you at your convenience. Please feel free to contact me with any questions at one of the numbers listed below. Sincerely, Mark R Spitzmueller President Bald Eagle Water Ski Shows, Inc. Hm. 651-222-3492 Cell 651-308-35n /Lj~
