Call to order at 7:00 pm and establishment of quorum. Park Board members present were Jon Hendrix, Erin Coger, Rachel Lyon and Kelly Bailey. Maurice Schwanke, Becky Glover, Erik Alvarez and James Parkman were also present. 2. Placement of Ducks Since we do not know if ducks can survive due to the presence of bobcats, we thought it would be alright to let Jon's wife put some ducks out in Natural Springs to see what happens to them. If they survive then we can address other issues at a later time. 3. Smartscape Garden located at Slatyer Creek Park Becky knows some ladies who might like to work on that project. She will contact them. 4. Community Garden The Park Board would like the Community Garden Issue put it on the website to see how many people would be interested. More research needs to be done in these areas: How many people do we need to get started? What do we need to do to prepare the soil and provide water? Is there a way to lock the garden? What happens if someone forgets to turn the water off? Can we use the well that is nearby? How do we keep people from 4 wheeling all over the garden area? Would the school agriculture department be willing to start the community garden? 5. Softball The Park Board recommends the use of certified umpires to avoid older players being able to intimidate young inexperienced umpires. There will be six teams per day. Men will play on Tuesdays and Thursdays and Co-ed will play on Mondays and Wednesdays. If each teams plays twice there will be 30 games. Teams should be responsible for trash pick-up. We will raise the price to $350.00 per team to cover maintenance costs. June 6 is the first game. We are still open to accepting bids for concessions. 6. Minutes Erin motioned to accept the minutes of March 21, 2011. Jon made a motion to second. The motion carried. 7. Adjourn — Erin made a motion to adjourn. Jon seconded. Motion carried. Meeting adjourned at 8:22 p.m. Rachel Lyon, Secr ary ATTEST:
