PARKS AND REC REPORT BY TODD KJELLAND

"I Will Survive" is more than just a Gloria Gaynor disco song. It is an
anthem to anyone that has lived through life's struggles, challenges and
North Dakota winters.
It has been a year since I made the migration home to Park River and
"I DID SURVIVE". Spring is hinting at a comeback and the circle has
been completed.
With spring comes the planning for Baseball, Softball, Tennis, Soccer
and splashing in the Les Kelly Memorial Pool.
Baseball and Softball sign ups for all ages are scheduled for April 4,
5pm - 7pm at the PR Community Room at 514 Briggs Ave.
A Park River Baseball Booster organizational meeting is scheduled for
March 29th at 7pm at the PR Community Room. All interested in helping
support Park River Baseball are encouraged to come with ideas to
continue to rebuild a strong youth baseball program.
Tennis and Soccer are two new programs being looked at for this
upcoming SUltrier season. More information will be available at PR-
Parks.com
