REVENUE / EXPENSE: Ms. Drenski reported on the revenue and expense for January and February 2012. We are currently waiting for the budget to be approved by council. There are some funds that have not been collected from January and February that will be reported in the March revenue. Adult and Youth programming is the combination of Enrichment and I&T Sports programs that we had in the past. 2012 BUDGET INFORMATION UPDATE: Ms. Drenski stated that since we came in ahead of revenue last year there will be a rollover for 2012 that will help with repairs etc. PROGRAM UPDATE: Ms. Drenski reported that in February we had National Skating Day with more than 500 people in attendance. We also had the John Heil Tennis Tournament the same weekend and that was sold out. The spring and summer newsletter is almost complete and will be mailed out before the first of April.

The Service Department has purchased new equipment so they are able to make the banner for our Easter event whereas last year we made it by hand because it was too expensive to buy. th They will be making our 4 of July banner as well. Summer camp registration opened February stth 1 and is going very well. We are looking for 4 of July participants for the parade, any groups or businesses that would like to join us should contact the Recreation Center. The National Parks and Recreation Association has a company they use for background checks for employee and volunteer applicants.
