minutes of recreation commission meeting ~ Sept. 6, 1967 continued.
Mr. Dan Stapay, dist. 834 recreation director then explained his anticipated pr8gram.
He explained that he was just getting started & was addressing all groups who were
interested in listenjing. He felt .that some direction should be given to the
developement of recreation in this area to bring it up to its potential, and that
a long range study was needed. He was informed that several studiea were already
available. .
He stated that, in general, if the school district controlled any activity
on facilities provided by the city, the district would provide supervision and
staffing. The city would maintain the facility. He indicated the desire for close
cooperation between his department and the city recreation commission . For
example: if the city would provide a wanning house at the Staples field rink, the
school district would provide supervision of said house and free-skating activities
on the. rink.
e
Mr. Stapay also requested that the city furnish & maintain a speed-skating track
and an adjacent free-skating area on Lily Lake in addition to the hockey rink.
The school district would provide supervision; and, if possible, a free-skating
area on McKusick Lake. He also inquired about a community room for meetings of
recreational groups, & was informed the city had no such facility at present.
Also he requested the use of the playground facilities at Pioneer Park for summer
supervised recreation programs. The city recreation supervisor informed him that
there would be no problem there.
, -
Mr. Stapay also indicated that he would like to form a district-wide recreation
commission to adIise his office & to publicize the district's programs. Mr. Stapay
was thanked for his comments ~his presence at the meeting.
