PARKS AND REC REPORT BY TODD KJELLAND
WWW. PR-PARKS. COM
Back to school, BACK to school, BACK TO SCHOOL. What does
that mean for a parks and rec guy? It means transition. Moving from a
non-stop agenda to a manageable one. Another week and all will seem
so quiet, cahn and lonely.
The summer can be hectic with day to day operations with the pool,
baseball, softball, volleyball, 4th of July, combined with camps for tennis,
basketball, baseball, volleyball and gymnastics to name a few. The
feeling of August is mixed for lne. On one hand it is relief, but on the
other it is simply a process of grief. An emotion that is a natural healing
process/br loss. A few weeks of withdrawl on the mower to collect my
thoughts of what has passed. I will miss all the familiar daily faces as they
leave to explore a new life experience called collage or back to their
thmiliar school routines.
August does bring the smell of football to the warm din air though.
Perhaps that is only an analogy only an ex-tbotball player can grasp,
perhaps the smell of harvest is more widely accepted terminology. Either
way, the cooler nights bring relief" and a new energy to the possibilities
of what the rest of the year may bring.
At Parks and Rec this means Pop Warner Football, the rite of passage
of 5th and 6th graders to experience the full contact sport known as
American football. Full pads like the players on TV, real one on one
tackling and touchdowns is the moment that all kids dream perfecting
the touchdown victory dance.
Sunday August 26th at 7pm will be a mandatory parent and coaches
meeting at city hall to discuss the rules and format of this season's Pop
Warner Program. Sign-ups and equipment distribution will tbllow the
meeting. This year's success depends strongly on parent participation
with coaching practices and game days. if you would like to volunteer
your time as a coach please contact Todd at prparksandrec@live.com
