The booth will have information such as trail maps and programs available. <br />The Good Turn 2010 event will be held April 24 – May 7, 2010 at participating businesses or a drop <br />th <br />off site will be available at St. Genevieve’s Religious Education Center on Saturday, May 8 from 9 <br />a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Mayor Capra said there will not be a Health Fair offered as there was just not <br />enough participation at the last event.

There will be a drawing for Cougar Cash. <br /> <br />Sand Volley Ball Court <br /> <br />The committee is still interested in pursuing the idea of a sand volley ball court at Laurie LaMotte <br />Memorial Park. From the information provided by Committee Member Haiden drainage needs to be <br />planned into system regardless of where it is located. The committee considered Tracie McBride <br />Memorial Park, but this park also has a high water table and they feel a volley ball court would not get <br />as much use at this park. Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park is the sports park. The various open areas <br />of Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park were discussed and the committee would like to ask Mr. Paul <br />Palzer to evaluate whether the north east corner of the park would be suitable. The committee is <br />officially discarding the areas by the hockey rink and near playground. The committee would also <br /> <br />like to know whether the gravel path from Centerville Road can be grassed over once the trail is in. <br /> <br />Liebel Property on Main Street (Capra) <br /> <br /> <br />Mayor Capra continues to research different options for funding of this property. <br /> <br />Schwan’s Super Rink – Skate Nights <br /> <br />Centerville Skate Night has been scheduled at Schwan’s Super Rink for Saturday, September 25, 2010 <br />from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. Ms. Stephan talked to Ms. Jackie Olson, our contact for the event and she said <br />to let her know the beginning of September if the committee would like hospitality (cookies, hot <br />chocolate) and an estimate of how many people will be attending. She also dropped off additional <br />skate passes. It is advertised on the web site to stop by City Hall if you are interested in Free Skate <br />Passes for any Open Skate. <br /> <br />Movies in the Park <br /> <br /> <br />Committee Member Peterson was able to find much better prices on projector rentals; $125 to $250 <br />depending on which company, how bright and shipping costs. One company’s rental was $175 for an <br />evening with a 30% discount if you pick it up and return it, opposed to it being shipped. Movie rental <br />is reasonable at about $75. Committee Member Peterson did not have concrete numbers on a sound <br />system yet. The committee discussed days of the week and times trying to determine what would be <br />the best to offer Movies in the Park. In the summer it doesn’t get dark until late, it would be difficult <br />to offer a children’s movie that didn’t start until it was dark. Committee Member Amundsen said that <br />7 of 8 <br /> <br />
