PRESENTATION:  Mr. Otto Meijer, Wolcott Lions Club President, spoke to the Board about
MR. OTTO MEIJER  using the Middle School tennis court as the site for the skate park in Wolcott. Mr. Meijer mentioned that if the skate park is not popular in the future, the site could be used again as a tennis court, since the skate park is portable. Money would be collected for a lock, and for the continuation of fencing around the site. State funds would be requested for supervision. The club is checking into insurance for the park. As a result of the families surveyed, it was found that playground equipment would be desirable. Younger siblings could play on playground equipment while their older brothers/sisters were skating. Use of the school for restrooms is a possibility, or a portable toilet may be provided. Mr. Meijer introduced Mr. Don Camp who mentioned that he would work with the Funeral Director next door to ensure that the skate park was not open at the time of funerals. It was mentioned that Mayor John Munson and other village representatives approve of this proposal, as well as the Leavenworth Alumni Association. The school contact for this project will be Robert Magin, Business Administrator.
