Recreation report:

• G. Lloyd, J. Bogaczyk, James Rakoski of STSD met to discuss the bleacher project at Island Park. The "Use Agreement" figures of course are different from previous years due to changing costs. The term would be for five years instead of ten in case more expenses rise. The information has to be reviewed by the School, also.
• R. Kaminski asked that plans be made rather than just everything being hurried through with no previous planning for the park.Where things are now, proposed other sites should be on a map.

Television

K.C.C. report:

• B. Laverty discussed questions directed at last meeting. No policy had been set as to if activity held in building was commercial such as the bands having concert to raise their own funds. No problem he was aware of until the questions were raised. They (bands) were same as anyone else by using, paying fee, etc.
  
  B. Laverty expressed his concerns about the rash of vandalism again at the site. Every time they get things taken care of it seems lately they have to put money out to repair damages. The spotlight is being left on out back even though this may not solve anything. It is a way to try. The window in the girls room room, will be replaced with thermopane.
• Question on insurance if something were to happen when a band played, would they have own insurance? Nothing additional has been asked for if Girl or Boy Scouts or others use the building. The Coal Festival has to obtain insurance for the park when it is open the end of May each year. The coverage for the building could be checked. B. Laverty was advised to use own judgement with the rentals.
