We
did
at
our
just
to
kind
of
recap,
for
you
there's
going
to
be
a
little
bit
of
that
going
on
during
this
meeting
and
our
last
one
we
did.
Youth
fees
was
our
big
initiative
so
I'll
hit
on
that
a
little
bit
later,
but
we
voted
on
our
youth
fees
to
go
ahead
and
reduce
those
costs.
Moving
forward
to
play
all
you,
sports
across
the
board,
came
out
to
300
and
now
moving
forward.
It's
going
to
be
150..
B
This
initiative
was
to
try
to
increase
participation.
Participation
by
20
was
our
overall
goal,
so
we
got
that
taken
care
of
and
now
for
this
meeting
moving
forward
for
2022,
we
want
to
look
at
our
facility
fees,
so
our
crystal
beach
swimming
pool,
sunrise,
golf
course,
and
then
our
river
city,
campground,
are
our
main
three
big
ones
here.
So
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
start
this
off
with
sunrise,
so
met
with
the
golf
board
twice
since
our
last
park
board
meeting
the
golf
board
has
gone
ahead
and
recommended
to
the
park
board.
B
The
following
fees
for
2022
this
would
be
for
our
season
pass
structure
is
to
keep
it
the
same
as
it
is
in
2021.
So
what
that
is,
is
adult
season
passes.
750
spouse,
500
college
250,
and
this
is
with
a
valid
student
id
and
driver's
license
and
high
school
100
similar
scenario
and
then
corps
sticker
625.
B
B
So
we'll
just
kind
of
do
this
facility
by
facility
we'll
start
with
sunrise.
I
guess
I'd
like
to
open
that
up
to
the
board.
If
you
have
any
discussion
on
this,
like
I
said
this
is
this
has
been
an
initiative
that
we've
been
working
on
for
quite
a
while
and
now
with
the
the
building
of
the
golf
board
and
everything
that
they've
been
doing
to
try
to
work
on
the
facility
and
the
operational
standpoint
of
the
golf
course.
E
F
I
guess
this
would
be
a
great
time
too,
for
our
golf
cart,
roger
if
you
have
any
insights
into
anything
yeah
at
those
rates.
Part
of
what
the
golf
board
has
discussed
is
it
gives
me
a
lot
of
room
to
to
give
group
pricing
to
negotiate
some
pricing
with
some
other
people
had
a
group.
I
think
they
brought
this
up
on
me
before
a
golf
now
group
came
in
out
of
louisville
said
75
followers
on
facebook,
the
bogey
brothers,
he
said
he's
got
30
guys,
usually
travel.
F
F
If
I
start
at
45,
35
looks
pretty
attractive
on
golf
now
for
for
regular
rates,
also
throwing
in
some
other
lead
rates
that
we've
been
talking
about
with
the
golf
board
20
to
25,
or
something
like
that
to
to
get
some
of
the
manufacturer,
leagues
and
things
out
there
like
that.
So
I
think
there
was
a
little
bit
of
sticker
shock
with
the
45
this
year,
caused
a
little
bit
of
our
pull
back
and
play
comparable
to
the
market.
I
came
from.
F
F
For
some
reason
we
haven't
really.
You
know
taken
advantage
of
it
in
madison
other
than
maybe
the
sticker
shot,
and
also
a
lot
of
the
other
tools
we're
doing
getting
online
presence
building
the
website
getting
on
golf
now
trying
to
let
some
people
outside
of
our
community
know
we're
here
to
come
in
and
play
so
any
other
questions
anybody
might
have
for
me.
G
F
F
F
F
It
takes
a
lot
of
hands-on
experience
somewhat
of
my
ages
and
it's
natural.
You
know
the
social
media
thing,
but
it's
great
for
business
and
the
girls
have
put
on
some
posts
already
that
I've
noticed
have
gotten
some
attention
and
some
follows
out
there.
So
that's
that's
another
avenue
of
social
media
that
that
I'm
using
to
attempt
to.
E
Bill
we
comment
that
we
went
from
having
no
social
media
presence
to
golf
now,
a
great
website
and,
and
then
now
a
facebook
presence.
So
as
roger
was
saying,
part
of
this
is
an
intentional
process
to
build
that
awareness
and
also
expand
our
market,
our
market
from
just
madison
to
everywhere,
frankly
particularly
regionally,
and
it's
going
to
take
some
time
to
cultivate
that
market
share,
but
we're
definitely
heading
in
the
right
right
direction.
E
At
the
last
parks
board
meeting,
we
gave
more
of
a
comprehensive
overview
of
the
improvements
in
the
financial
operations
at
sunrise,
even
though
we
haven't
eliminated
100
of
the
deficit,
we've
eliminated
half
of
the
deficit
and
made
tremendous
progress
and
lots
of
very,
very
specific
things
that
were
our
goals
for
2021.
So
we're
going
to
build
on
that
in
202..
F
One
of
the
other
unique
things
about
coming
into
this
job
and
matt
told
me
when
I
first
started
if
I
might
come
into
a
blank
slate
really
I'm
the
third
golf
pro
at
sunrise.
The
first
two
were
sub-contractors,
so
this
is
beyond
a
bike
site.
They
didn't
even
have
slack
the
city's
never
run
the
golf
course
before.
So
we
didn't
have
procedures
for
selling
gift
shipments
or
there's
there's
been
a
lot
of
work
through
the
process.
So
it's
I
mean
we're
working
on
mission
city.
F
I
mean
ground
routes
and
I've
been
in
a
facility
where
we
we,
I
saw
it
as
a
corn
field.
We
grew
up
as
logos
everything
like
that,
but
we
still
had
some
infrastructure
in
place
when
we
went
into
that
operation.
We
had
bookkeeping
behind
us
and
things
like
that,
so
the
sunrise
as
it
is
today
it's
a
work
in
progress.
That's
that
everything
is
good.
The
procedures
we're
using
and
selling
memberships
and
pricing
and
everything.
F
B
I
guess
my
first
question
would
be:
would
you
like
to
do
this
on
a
facility
per
facility
basis,
so
we
can
vote
at
the
end
of
each
facility
as
a
lump
sum
at
the
end,
like
I
said,
we're
going
to
break
it
down
and
do
three
facilities
so,
of
course,
a
week
sunrise
golf
course
in
the
campground
I'll.
Leave
that
to
your
discretion,
how
you
like
to
do
that.
B
So
next
we'll
go
ahead
into
crystal
beach
swimming
pool,
so
before
2021,
what
we
did
is
we
did
away
with
our
overall
season
pass
structure.
We
did
still
offer
one
for
our
seniors,
so
this
is
another
one
that
was
65
and
up,
and
our
overall
recommendation
is
to
keep
the
rates
the
same
and
I'll
break
down.
What
those
rates
are.
B
We
saw
just
over
13
000
swimmers
here
this
past
season
that
was
on
par
with
what
we
had
the
year
before,
even
when
we
did
have
a
season
pass
structure
previously
over
all
this,
eliminating
this
I've
been
in
contact
with
our
with
the
parks
director
for
north
vernon.
They
did
a
similar
structure
around
the
same
time
that
we
did
and
there's
numerous
benefits
that
you
see
to
that.
You
don't
see
as
much
of
it
treated
as
a
daycare
service.
B
Our
life
coach,
don't
have
to
put
up
with
you
know
a
40
babysitter
for
the
week.
That's
that's
pretty
cheap
as
far
as
that
goes
so
you're,
not
seeing
as
much
of
issues
with
the
behavioral
problems
and
things
like
that
and
then
you're,
seeing
a
lot
more
emphasis
on
the
on
the
revenue
side
for
us
we're
much
closer
to
breaking.
Even
we
just
need
to
kind
of
hone
in
a
little
bit
on
our
overhead
with
that,
which
is
something
we
already
have
a
plan
in
place
moving
forward
for
2022..
B
But
I
think
this
is
kind
of
the
common
thing
that
we're
seeing
now
across
swimming
pools,
they're
very,
very
expensive
to
maintain
just
like
golf
courses,
there's
a
lot
that
goes.
It
goes
into
it
with
the
overall
maintenance
with
the
chemicals
staffing
it
you've
got
to
have
adequate
amount
there
to
keep
eyes
on
everybody,
and
so
I
mean,
thankfully,
with
the
staffing
that
we've
had.
We
haven't
had
any
issues
or
any
drownings
anything
like
that,
although
we've
had
to
see
our
guards
in
action
and
they
do
a
fantastic
job.
B
So
our
recommendation
to
the
board
then
would
be
to
keep
race
for
crystal
beach.
The
same
moving
forward
for
2022.
and
just
as
a
reminder
crystal
beach
is
currently
under
renovations.
Currently
plain
anticipation
for
finishing
those
is
about
middle
of
may
and
we
are
still
planning
on
reopening
memorial
day.
E
B
E
B
The
campground
so
campground
this
past
year,
we
saw
just
shy
of
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
of
profits
here
for
the
first
time
in
our
history.
So
to
give
you
a
little
bit
of
background
previous
year
incomes,
I
look
all
the
way
back
to
2014,
bringing
in
just
over
fifty
seven
thousand
dollars,
and
now
you
move
ahead.
In
2021
income
we
saw
over
128
000,
so
profiting
nearly
six
figures.
B
There
has
been
a
phenomenal
effort
from
our
entire
team,
especially
doug
buckler,
our
new
campground
attendant
we
brought
on
leading
into
this
year.
We
did
move
to
an
online
platform,
so
previously
in
2020,
you'd
have
to
call
the
campground
attendant
call
the
parks
office
to
be
able
to
do
a
reservation,
and
then
it
was
written
down
in
a
notebook
and
that's
how
the
entire
booking
system
was
kept
tracked
up.
So
moving
into
2021
was
when
we
moved
everything
parts
related
onto
rec
desk.
B
So
that's
how
we
did
all
of
our
platforms,
so
you
could
go
on
there
and
reserve
it
yourself.
You
could
call
us
call.
Doug
and
we'd
have
everything
hooked
on
that
engine,
although
it
was
great
for
for
keeping
track
of
it
a
little
having
a
little
bit
more
organized,
it
was
a
little
less
user
friendly
than
we
had
anticipated.
So
what
we
did
again
catching
you
guys
up
on
this
is
we've
moved
to
astro
and
they
are
on
the
reserve
america
platform.
So
that
is
the
number
one
campground
software
in
america.
B
It's
what
all
the
state
parks
use,
such
as
clifton
falls.
That's
going
to
make
us
much
much
more
accessible
reserve.
America
alone
says
that,
though,
that
will
increase
your
reservation
by
up
to
20
once
you
move
to
that
online
platform,
because
just
like
golf
now
does
for
sunrise,
it
makes
you
much
much
easier
to
find
and
reservations
booking
your
your
nights.
It's
going
to
take
just
a
fraction
of
the
time,
much
more
user-friendly.
B
B
So
that
is
where
we've,
where
we've
been,
and
what
we're
trying
to
do
with
all
this
is
just
continue
to
do
the
best
we
can
to
try
to
increase
our
volume
there,
our
overall
occupancy
and
give
our
community
and
those
that
come
visit
from
out
of
town
the
best
product
that
we
can.
So
our
recommendation.
B
B
And
then,
in
conjunction
with
that,
also
we're
recommending
to
do
a
premium
weekend
increase.
So
just
as
you
would
go
to
a
hotel
and
you
see
that
rates
are
going
to
be
different
for
the
supply
and
demand
of
whether
it's
a
festival
weekend
or
what
you
have
it.
You're
going
to
see
rates
are
going
to
go
up
because
of
that
too,
so
we've
determined
there
are
seven
premium
weekends
in
2022,
and
so
on
top
of
these
rate
increases.
A
H
A
And
walking
you
know
there
was
there
were
a
lot
of
extra
things
in
those
campgrounds,
but
it
was
not
a
waterfront
view
either.
You
know,
so
I'm
not
an
experienced
camper
per
se,
I'm
not
in
any
way
giving
that
impression
to
anyone,
but
I'm
just
I'm,
I'm
just
saying
you
feel
like
it's
valid
and
that
you'll
still
be
able
to
turn
a
good
profit
even
with
raising
the
rates.
You
feel
good.
You've
chased
that,
according
to
similar
campgrounds
like
ours,
so.
B
We've
done
some
comparisons
with
that,
and
something
that
I
don't
think
I
mentioned
is
that
we
only
operated
about
35
percent
capacity
here
this
past
year
and
was
still
able
to
turn
a
hundred
thousand
dollars.
So
if
we're
able
to
do
a
fraction
of
what
reserve
america
claims
that
we're
capable
of
going
up
to
20
in
terms
of
a
reservation,
I
don't
see
any
reason
why
we
can't
continue
this
trend,
especially.
A
A
E
Here's
here's
kind
of
the
matt
and
I
were
discussing
it
every
year
that
we
don't
increase
our
rates.
We
erode
the
value
of
the
rate
because
of
inflation
and
right
now
we're
at
almost
a
10
annual
inflation
rate.
Just
the
10
percent
keeps
us
even
okay.
The
premium
weekend
is
here's
a
good
comparison
carlo,
which
is
on
the
weekend.
Let's
say:
river
fest
or
regatta
weekend.
H
E
H
E
E
That's
required
to
make
the
upgrades
and
maintain
that
particular
park
asset
and
it'll
happen
incrementally
over
time
that,
because
we,
if
we
just,
are
guilty
across
the
city
and
governments
in
particular
of
not
raising
rates
very
frequently,
then
the
value
of
that
that
that
user
fee
gets
quickly
eroded
by
inflation
and
right
now,
for
example,
as
you
might,
you
know,
on
council
you're,
seeing
what
we're
talking
about
our
waterway
project.
You
know
the
last
time
we
raised
water
race
was
14
years
ago,
and
and
inflation
over
that
14-year
period
has
accumulated
to
33.
G
Have
feedback
on
what
carl
said
if
you've
been
on
one
camping
trip,
it's
one
more
that
I'm
bet
on,
so
I'm
not
as
worried
about
that.
But
how
does
it
compare
to
down
the
road
and
vv
or
or
all
the
campgrounds?
You
see
price
price
wise
to
what
we're
charging
to
what's
similar,
and
I
agree
the
river
is
a
big
draw.
You
know
the
downtown's
a
big
draw,
so
I
think
that
is
madison's
appeal,
but
but
how
does
it
compare
within
that
area?
G
E
E
E
E
Thing
they
will
pay
if
we
do
something
for
them.
Also,
two
years
ago
we
had
zero
money
in
the
bank
for
improvements
just
two
years
ago,
and
because
of
the
strategy
we've
had
now,
we
have
almost
a
hundred
fifty
thousand
dollars
organically
created
that
stays
at
the
campground
and
now,
with
national
park.
Planning
processes
going
on,
it
will
include.
D
We
love
it
downtown,
that's
been
nice
if
we
had
full
hookup,
you
know
if
we
had
the
sewer
water
again
and
the
electricity
would
be
a
great
thing
to
do,
but
I
think,
since
we
don't
have
the
full
hookup
we're
the
prices
now
that
we
have,
I
think,
we're
very
competitive.
Going
a
little
higher,
especially
on
the
holidays,
might
be
a
tough
thing.
You
know
we
talked
about
oops
we're
doing
this
chat,
sometimes
there'll
35
there.
We
really
try
to
find
ways
to
encourage
people.
We're
talking
to
clifty.
D
Ask
you
phil,
send
people
our
way
just
to
fill
the
park
up
a
little
bit
because
it's
a
phenomenal
thing.
But
since
we
haven't
seen
anything,
the
grass
looks
good.
We
have
a
firewood
outlet
and
things
like
that-
that's
great,
but
when
it
comes
to
people
coming
in
with
huge
rvs
expecting
things
especially
wi-fi
the
right
decks
move
is
great,
because
that
was
the
toughest
thing.
People
want
to
have
a
lot
of
people
down.
There
get
reservations,
get
so
complicated,
so
now
a
reserve
america
is
going
to
be
wonderful.
D
I
think,
but
I'd
caution
going
too
fast
on
certain
things.
Until
you
see
some
action
done,
some
things
taking
place.
Maybe
we
have
things
I
don't
know
about
coming
up
before
camping
season,
but
I
think
we're
getting
to
a
point
where
we're
pretty
high
on
things,
but
until
we
see
some,
maybe
full
hookups
other
things
that
might
be
might
be
able
to
offer
to
get
those
prices.
A
So
we
have
a
big
bathroom
project.
Is
that
right
for
the
campground,
and
is
that
in
theory
supposed
to
be
done
before
next
season?
Yes,
okay,
and
so
are
we
expanding
those
bathrooms?
Are
we
just
overhauling
them,
giving
them
a
look?
Making
them
more
accessible?
I
think,
is
the
easiest
way
to
put
it
repositioning
the
way
the
showers
are
and
making
it
more
accessible
for
all
to
try
to
get
in
there,
because,
right
now
you
could
not
fit
say
a
wheelchair
in
there
without
having
to
pick
it
up
and
just
expanding
the
overall.
B
The
width
that
you
have
to
be
able
to
try
to
get
there
and
fit
more
people
in
next.
Currently,
they
are
not
in
the
best
shape
that
are
severely
severely
outdated
and
are
there
any
other
projects
besides
the
bathroom,
that's
the
one
that
we
were
focusing
on
for
this
year.
Obviously,
that
has
been
mentioned
about
the
sewer.
Hookup
capabilities
would
be
a
phenomenal
one
to
try
to
undertake
that
which
is
going
to
be
a
much
more
expensive
and
expensive
one,
so
that.
E
Would
be
the
big
outstanding?
One
is
the
bathrooms.
Those
are
archaic
and
need
to
be
modern,
obviously
other
things
that
are
easier.
I
bet
I
think
they're
impactful
is
beautification,
keeping
it
clean
means
and
then
also
arranging
special
events
special
kind
of
weekend
events,
not
only
the
ones
that
are
being
sponsored
around
the
community
by
bmi
or
jcbt
or
other
organizations.
But
you
know
the
halloween
festival
that
we
had
at
the
campground
was
really
phenomenal.
B
And
what's
our
government
we've
got
for
2021?
We
had
170
users
signed
up
for
the
dog
park.
We
moved
that
to
request,
just
as
we
did
and
everything
else
with
our
our
programming
takes
twenty
dollars,
and
that
is
for
the
full
calendar
year,
and
then
you,
if
you
do
that
and
then
you
go
ahead
and
upload
your
shop,
verification
records
for
your
dogs,
and
then
you
have
access
we'll
give
you
the
code
to
that.
That's
where
you
can
use
it.
B
B
So
that's
we've
had
internal
discussions
about
that
on
the
fees
if
there
should
be
a
fee
associated
with
that.
Is
it
more
of
a
quality-like
thing,
currently
the
main
component
that
I
think
the
reason
that
there
is
a
fee
is
for
that
shot,
verification,
because
you
have
to
pay
that
fee
amount
and
then
have
the
shots
uploaded
before
you
can
finalize
all
the
systems
where
we'll
give
you
that
code,
because
it
is
a
punch
code
to
get
in
and
then
punch
code
to
get
out
of
that
facility.
So
that's
kind
of
where
we're.
E
E
D
E
Where
you
hey,
here's
your
higher
rate,
but
you
also
get
access
to
the
dog
park
on
the
weekend
when
you're
here
or
something
like
that,
along
with
yeah,
with
that,
I
have
that
large
area
down
in
the
bottom,
where
we
park
vehicles
and
it's
like
a
lot
of
people-
want
to
take
their
dogs
down
here
and
let
them
run
and
stuff.
Well,
that's
still
part
of
the
thing,
there's
kids
and
stuff,
so
I
have
to
make
sure
they
don't
let
their
dogs
loose
down
there.
E
B
E
E
E
H
E
G
A
E
E
E
B
So
the
first
question
would
be
do
monday.
The
first
monday
of
the
month
still
work
for
everybody,
and
the
second
thing
is:
we
move
dates.
We
moved
the
time
to
6
30
to
accommodate
before
gail's
falling,
who
didn't
get
off
work
until
later.
So
the
second
question
would
be:
what
is
the
earliest
time
the
board
you'd
be
available
to
me.
E
With
him,
the
only
the
only
comment
board
I
would
I
would
mention,
is
you
know
if
you
move
it
early
and
it's
before
the
end
of
a
typical
work
day?
It
might,
I
think
we
have
a
lot
of
public
participation,
but
it
might
include
more
public
participation.
I
mean
moving
up
to
5.
30
would
seem
like
a
reasonable
thing.
Maybe
you
all
consider
consider
that,
rather
than
prior
to
the
end
of
the
work
day,
the.
G
H
B
One
note
from
our
planning
office
that
has
to
do
with
our
master
park
plan,
so
we
do
need
to
have
public
input
sessions,
so
we
had
one
of
these
a
few
months
back
and
we
need
to
have
another
one
sometime
in
in
january,
very
beginning
of
february
so
report.
If
you
could
shoot
me,
a
text,
email
call
anything
about
dates
that
you
would
be.
B
I
don't
know,
what's
easier
for
you
either
available
or
not
available
for
the
next
30
days
or
so
that
we
can
maybe
get
together
be
in
the
evening,
so
that
we
can
have
public
input
there
to
discuss
the
needs
that
once
kind
of
analysis
over
all
the
parks
department
and
what
we
need
to
include
in
that
five-year
master
plan
moving
forward.
We
have
gotten
through
a
good
chunk
of
that,
but
the
overall
final
draft
is
due
april
15th
for
our.
A
B
H
A
C
I
Hello
board
so
for
our
new
members,
typically
I'll,
give
in-depth
analysis
on
whatever
programs
we're
running
at
the
current
time.
Right
now,
we've
just
got
our
pickleball
and
various
exercise
classes
going
down
at
the
brown
gym
and
then
also
with
youth
programming.
Our
youth
basketball
registration
is
live
for
both
boys
and
girls
and
that's
grades.
Fourth,
through
eighth
right
now
we
have
enough
boys
signed
up
for
two
teams,
but
we
definitely
need
some
more
girls
to
sign
up.
I
know:
sonny
boyer
wants
the
girls
coach
at
the
high
school.
I
So
with
the
passing
of
carol,
brown
carol
was
participating
in
a
lot
of
our
programs
here,
the
city,
her
family
left
us
a
generous,
generous
donation
of
eight
thousand
dollars,
and
they
wanted
that
to
we
wanted
to.
They
wanted
us
to
put
that
towards
a
parks
project.
So
I
thought
you
know
what
better
way
to
put
that
back
into
the
the
parks
other
than
you
know
kiwanis
park,
which
is
where
we
play
our
women's
softball
league.
I
So
that's
kind
of
what
I've
got
for
you
all
today
on
the
board.
If
he
wants
to
work
here,
we
go
and
it's
kind
of
just
spotlighting
kiwanis
park
and
kind
of
just
the
the
rough
ideas
that
I
that
I
had
that
I
wanted
to
to
do
with
it.
So
first
off
for
the
proposed
press
box
upgrades
our
dimensions
are
20
feet
by
10
feet
by
15.,
and
I
wanted
to.
I
I
don't
know
if
you
guys
have
gone
down
to
kiwanis
at
all
anytime
recently,
but
the
press
box
itself
is
that
same
green,
that
we've
used
on
all
of
our
other
press
boxes
at
our
various
facilities,
and
it
is
almost
two
tone
right
now.
The
top
part
of
it
is
lighter
than
the
bottom
part
of
it,
and
so
I
figured
you
know.
Let's,
let's
give
that
a
facelift,
so
I
wanted
to
sherwin-williams
just
to
kind
of
see
how
much
we
would
need
for
a
building
of
that
size.
I
So
we
need
nine
gallons
per
coat
for
the
pottery
blue,
which
is
that
blue
there
that's
what
I
would
want
the
base
color
to
be,
and
then
we
would
need
two
gallons
per
coat
for
the
oxford
white,
which
would
be
the
the
white
lettering
that
says
kiwanis
park
on
the
back
side
of
the
press
box,
and
then
I
threw
the
showstopper
red
in
there.
We
would
need
one
gallon
per
cup
for
the
showstopper
red
and
that
would
be
the
trim
that
goes
around
kiwanis
park.
I
I
Why
not
give
it
a
little
bit
of
a
patriotic
feel
and
give
it
a
little
bit
of
a
facelift
that
way,
so
that
would
be
for
the
press
box
next,
I
would
like
to
put
a
black
chain
leak
fence
in.
I
think
you
know
man.
I've
talked
about
this.
We
think
that
black
chain
leaked
fences.
You
know
really
make
an
area
look
clean.
I
again,
I
don't
know
if
you've
seen
kiwanis's
fence,
but
it
is
it's.
I
They
would
give
us
6
800
for
5
feet
of
fencing
or
500
feet
of
fencing
and
that's
a
kit.
We
would
have
to
install
and
assemble
that
so
the
cost
of
that
is
going
to
go
up
a
little
bit
more
and
then
carroll
county
fence.
They
are
the
people
who
made
john
paul
park,
look
really
nice
and
they
did
that
for
it
for
roughly
eight
thousand
dollars.
So
I'm
expecting.
I
I
was
unable
to
get
them
in
for
a
quote
before
I
presented
this,
but
I'm
expecting
that
work
down
at
kiwanis
to
be
fairly
similar.
It
may
be
a
little
bit
more
than
what
it
was
at
john
paul,
but
they
did
a
great
job
and
I
think
they'd
be
another
another
good
company
to
go
for
in
order
to
put
that
fencing
in.
A
I
There's
there's
areas
that
are
just
an
eyesore
I'd
say
it's
suitable
for
play.
I
don't
think
it
would
fall
in
on
anybody.
I
mean
it's
it's
you
know
so
tall
during
the
various
weather
and
everything
that
we've
gotten
here
in
the
past,
but
I
definitely
think
at
least
just
maybe
just
painting
it
just
doing
something.
To
give
it
a
little
bit
more
of
a
pop
would
be
nice
yeah.
E
Carl
I'll
just
mention
too,
that
we're
doing
a
2.8
million
dollar
renovation
of
crystal
beach
and
that's
going
to
include
removing
the
chain-link
fence
that
right
now
encloses
crystal
beach
and
it's
going
to
be
replaced
with
a
nice
black
aluminum
fence.
So
what
chad
is
talking
about
will
certainly
look
more
consistent
with
the
improvements
that
are
happening
right
across
the
street
and
then
and
then
just
issa
there
as
part
of
our
destination.
Madison
economic
development
plans
we're
going
to
be
making
new
improvements
to
bicentennial
park
as
well.
I
We
tried
opening
registration
for
women's
softball
quite
a
few
times
last
summer
and
didn't
get
any
traction
on
that.
So
I'd
like
to
think
this
is
a
build
it
and
they
will
come
approach
to
that
facility
and
if
you
look
at
it
too,
we
at
that
you
know,
let's
just
say
fast
forward
to
summer
of
2022,
we
will
have
rucker
sports,
complex,
john
paul
park
and
kiwanis
that
we
could
all
host.
You
know
youth
travel,
baseball
or
softball
tournaments
at
so
that
could
really
expand.
You
know
our
tourism
here
in
madison.
G
The
fences
and,
I
think,
pretty
bad
shape
in
there.
I
think
the
other
thing
to
that
and
I've.
You
know
we
I've
got
young
kids
so
that
we've
used
the
complex
we've
used
cool
on
us
to
try
to
find
fields
to
practice
on
keeping
them
up.
You
know
that
that's
gotten
run
down
a
little
bit
at
times,
but
it's
something
that
we've
got
to
maintain
and
I
think
the
fence
will
pop
the
people
will
notice
the
fence.
I
do
think
it's,
it's
probably
not
unsafe,
but
it's
not
good
at
all.
G
A
I
B
B
Phil
kane
he's
originally
from
madison
and
graduated
from
shaw
and
he's
been
serving
as
the
president
of
shaw,
pope
john
for
the
past
13
years,
and
previously
he's
worked
at
eli,
lilly,
coach,
basketball
at
various
schools
and
he's
got
three
boys
and
then
carla
krebs,
also
from
madison
graduated
from
madison.
After
a
highly
successful
basketball,
career
and
she's
been
a
teacher
for
31
years
and
is
now
enjoying
her
retirement,
and,
I
think
is
bothering
our
mayor
maryland
city
council,
keeping
him
busy.
So
we're
very
happy
to
have
both
of
you
on
our
board.
B
B
B
Together
a
quick,
little
presentation
of
the
different
duties
responsibilities,
our
overall
board
is
very,
very
new
joe
and
zach
both
joined
on
a
little
over
a
year
ago,
and
then
obviously,
we've
got
two
more
new
members,
so
this
board
hasn't,
although
you've
been
through
a
lot.
You've
already
seen
your
first
fees
being
raised
and
such
there's
going
to
be
a
lot
of
different
things
that
the
board
will
get
to
undertake.
B
That's
one
kind
of
unique
thing
about
our
park
system
is
that
it's
so
comprehensive
and
massive
that
we
have
responsibilities
all
across
the
city
in
different
areas.
So
very
simply,
what
are
the
park
boards
responsibilities
to
formulate
policies
so
establishing
policies
based
on
sound
research
and
thoughtful
considerations
of
the
pros
and
cons
in
both
and
then
adopting
policies
that
are
going
to
allow
our
organization
to
run
it
efficiently
effectively?
Legally
and
ethically,
policies
is
something
coming
in.
B
That's
a
big
initiative
for
us
that,
like
I've,
said
multiple
times,
a
lot
of
things
have
been
done
in
pen
and
paper
and
trying
to
get
things
more
up
to
the
times.
That's
going
to
be
a
common
theme
that
you're
going
to
hear
me
talk
about
so
trying
to
adopt
more
progressive
policies
that
are
going
to
just
kind
of
speed.
Everything
up
make
us
more
efficient,
something
that
I'll
hit
on
here
in
just
a
little
bit.
B
It's
just
about
our
moving
everything
online
at
rec
desk
and
the
number
of
the
sheer
volume
of
transaction
that
we've
undergone
from
that.
That
was
planned,
establishing
services
offer
services
and
a
variety
that
pertain
to
those
of
all
demographics
throughout
the
community.
One
of
the
seminars
that
I
attended
in
nashville
chad.
B
We
got
to
go
to
the
national
park
and
rec
association
conference,
and
this
really
stood
out
to
me.
They
said:
don't
focus
on
offering
spaces,
but
rather
offer
experiences.
We
have
a
number
of
spaces
throughout
the
city
with
our
over
20
parks
that
we
have,
but
then
it
really
hit
home
when
it's
like.
Do
we
actually
offer
experiences
at
each
of
these
locations?
B
So,
that's
something
that
I
think
we're
trying
to
focus
on
a
lot
more
and
that
kind
of
ties
into
my
next
point
of
not
always
being
sport
driven
something
that
chad
has
been
working
on
is
trying
to
find
other
areas
that
we
can
offer
for
youth.
Adult
and
for
seniors
is
not
just
being
your
typical
basketball
baseball
soccer
football.
B
What
else
is
there
that
our
community
wants
there's
a
lot
of
different
things
that
I
mean?
I
know
he's
got
on
this
program,
bad
things
as
far
as
bird
watching,
which
may
sound
you
know
kind
of
silly.
At
first
glance,
we
went
to
a
couple
seminars
about
that,
and
this
is
a
huge
thing
all
throughout
the
country,
especially
in
the
midwest.
B
The
big
thing
for
the
park
board
monitoring
finances,
so
you
guys
have
to
control
the
power
to
go
ahead
and
vote
on
the
fees
throughout
our
entire
park
system.
Monitoring
the
overall
operational
capital,
finances
of
everything,
and
that's
been
a
huge
initiative
of
mayor
courtney's
administration
is
being
fiscally
responsible
in
operating
everything
as
a
business,
but
not
towards
taking
away
from
the
quality
of
life,
but
rather
enhancing
it.
It's
no
secret.
We've
got
deferred
maintenance
throughout
the
cities.
B
One
of
my
first
days
on
with
the
parks
I
went
over
to
the
complex
and
bobo
gets
on
the
tractor
and
before
he
starts
it
up,
he's
got
a
sledge
hammer
and
he's
smacking
the
side
three
times
before
he
gets
to
the
start.
That's
just
one
example
of
when
you
don't
monitor
the
finances.
What
can
happen
when
all
this
deferred
maintenance
starts
to
pile
up
over
time?
B
B
Here
preaching
about
it,
the
next
slide.
I
had
three
points
again,
first
one.
So
it
was.
Why
were
you
chosen
to
represent
our
park
board
number?
One
thing
I
have
is
good
listeners.
I
know
that
sounds
very
simple,
but
you
as
a
board
acting
as
a
resource
as
a
sounding
board
and
as
their
eyes
and
ears
of
the
citizens
of
our
community,
making
sure
that
the
agency
is
meeting
their
needs.
B
If
you
hear
of
something
I
want
you
to
call
me
call
the
parks
office
call
chad,
and
we
will
answer
your
questions
or
we'll
take
care
of
whatever
issue
it
is
then
in
there
that's
one
of
the
big
things
is
you
guys
are
going
to
be
hearing
it
all
now
that
you're
part
of
the
park
board
when
there's
something
that
people
don't
like
they're,
going
to
call
you
and
when
they
do
like
they
probably
won't
tell
you
about
it.
So
you're
going
to
hear
a
lot
of
negative
things.
B
That's
okay!
We
want
to
know
what's
going
on
and
what
people's
concerns
are.
I'm
more
worried
about
the
people
that
have
concerns
and
don't
say
anything
at
all.
I
can't
fix
those
problems,
so
be
active,
be
engaging,
be
listening
and
then
just
let
us
know
so
we
can
take
care
of
it.
The
second
thing,
positive
attitudes
and
open-mindedness,
we're
heading
in
a
fantastic
direction.
A
lot
of
the
stuff
that
we've
been
talking
about
has
been
kind
of
where
we've
been
and
that's
going
to
be
kind
of
what
I
finish
up
with
with
you
guys.
B
It's
taken
a
lot
of
work.
We
have
not
gotten
over
here
overnight
and
there
still
is
honestly
a
whole
lot
of
work
to
be
done.
But
one
thing
we're
trying
to
do
is
be
more
flexible,
be
able
to
adapt
to
the
times
moving
everything
to
an
online
system,
even
though
technology
is
not
always
our
best
friend
kind
of
getting
away
from
the
mentality.
That's
the
way.
B
It's
always
done
so
trying
to
get
away
from
that,
and
just
overall
as
a
board,
as
a
parks
department
being
more
cooperative,
engaging
and
proactive
instead
of
always
reactive
to
every
situation,
and
then
the
last
thing
for
the
side
of
why
you
were
chosen
was
motivated
to
serve
the
community.
I
think
that's
the
ultimate
reason
why
each
of
you
accepted
and
wanted
to
be
a
part
of
this
initiative.
B
Our
job
is
to
deliver
a
high
quality
of
life
to
our
citizens,
so
that
we
have
a
happier
and
more
vibrant
community
that
will
drive
people
who
want
to
be
a
part
of
it
parks,
parks
and
cultural
arts.
Expansion
is
only
going
to
continue
to
help
drive
our
overall
growth
and
not
every
decision.
That's
going
to
be
made
is
going
to
be
happiest
from
the
community
as
a
whole,
but
in
the
end,
it's
always
in
their
best
interest
and
always
because
we're
trying
to
give
back
and
adhere
that
quality
of
life.
B
We
want
to
provide
clean,
safe
and
beautiful
facilities,
amenities
and
green
spaces
to
our
community
and
the
300
000
visitors
that
are
going
to
come
to
jefferson
county.
For
you
guys.
It's
to
see
the
bigger
picture
see
that
the
ideas
and
decisions
made
put
us
one
step
closer
to
the
long-term
goals
that
we
want
to
focus
on.
B
So
that's
where
you
can
kind
of
combine
all
those
elements
together.
I
think
we
can
really
be
a
fantastic
working
board
in
a
parks
department,
making
kind
of
looking
used
and
to
get
all
this
stuff
done.
So
I
had
on
there
that
I
was
going
to
show
you-
and
I
will
send
this
to
you,
but
I
found
from
a
2013
report
what
the
previous
parks,
department
parks,
ford
mission
statement
was,
and
so
I've
got
a
little
bit
of
homework
for
you
three
and
zak
it's.
B
I
want
you
to
consider
what
would
be
an
appropriate
mission
statement
for
our
parks
department
moving
forward
and
I'm
gonna
do
the
same
thing
and
I'd
like
to
reconvene
on
that
topic
of
february's
meeting,
but
really
kind
of
update
it
with
the
times
have
something
that's
going
to
tie
in
with
what
we,
our
overall
master
plan
is
looking
like.
So
that's
another
time
that
we
could
talk
about
that.
But
basically,
where
do
you
guys
want
to
head
to
what
is
our
overall
objective
and
goal
for
this
park?
Commission
for
this
parks
department?
