<br />Meeting Minutes '
<br />3106/02
<br />
<br />each Tuesday, for a (2) hour session.. It may need to be cut to every other
<br />Tuesday for the 2002 program. The (2) hour sessions were too long for some
<br />of the programs and depending on the activity, some sessions wilt" be split into
<br />two (1) hour sessions. This would allow staff to better deal with large
<br />numbers. The canoeing and biking/swimming pro~ ,would remain (2)
<br />hours.
<br />
<br />The committee discussed various ways of recruiting volunteers to possibly
<br />help with this program. Mr. Murowski recommended having a limit on the
<br />amount of children signed up for each session, and charging a nominal fee.
<br />The fee will help offset costs, but also encourage those who sign up to either
<br />attend or to cancel. It became a problem the previous year when 90 children
<br />were signed up for example, and only a few actually attended. It was also
<br />decided that if large groups such as Apple Academy would like to attend, they
<br />would need to prearrange a separate session specifically for their group.
<br />
<br />Ms. Peil will contact Mr. Murowski and ask him to present a program plan
<br />to the committee at the next scheduled meeting. '
<br />
<br />Mr. Walter suggested more activities geared towards older children. Ms.
<br />Seeley suggested with the current interest ~ Peltier Lake and the heron
<br />rookery, a program on the Blue Heron would be interesting.
<br />
<br />The amo1.Ul1: of the fee and how registration will be handled was discussed.
<br />Ms. Peil will get together' with Staff to det~e this after the schedule is set.
<br />
<br />IV. CONSIDERATION OF MINUTES
