Non-Skier Lesson Participants-
Now that we have snow on the ground, it will help non-skiers get adjusted to having boots & skis on, if they can walk around outdoors with their skis on. This will help them be ready for lessons when they start on Dec. 26.

New Programs-
Beginning on Monday, January 7th, we will offer free TELEMARK skiing lessons, by Al Hagen, and SNOWBOARDING lessons by Sam Luoma.  Bring your equipment and learn from our experts!  More details will be announced later.  Free!

Ski Race Sponsor-
There is an opening for a ski race sponsor for the March 3rd race.  Please call 724-9832 or email Thom Storm if you would like more details.

We are in desperate need of concession stand workers next week. We have 2 hour shifts: 4- 6pm and 6-8pm.
Please sign up on line.

It’s a busy crowd each night with Congdon Park Mite and Squirt hockey playing at Lower Chester this year.
The concession stand is stocked and we are ready for business. If we don’t have volunteers for concessions, we may lose out on that much needed revenue. Please consider signing up for shift or two and we hope to see you at the party tomorrow!

In many Twin Cities’ neighborhoods, residents come together for annual National Night Out block parties. (In fact, in 2011, Minneapolis was tops in NNO participation among cities with populations over 250,000.) All over the city, plans are made, residential block event permits are obtained and crock pots are readied. On that one night a year, neighbors socialize, kids play together, and everyone feels more closely connected.

The plans follow LISC’s Building Sustainable Communities Initiative which is designed to achieve five goals:

• to develop, preserve and invest in housing and other real estate;
• to increase family income and wealth;
• to stimulate economic activity;
• to improve access to quality education; and
• to foster livable, safe, and healthy environments.
• We implement this strategy through the At Home in Duluth Collaborative, 24 neighborhood, non-profit and public sectors working together in the Morgan Park, West Duluth, Lincoln Park and the Hillside neighborhoods. The revised and updated Neighborhood Revitalization Plans will serve as blueprints for developers, residents and the City to tackle projects that have been designated as high priorities through an extensive public process.

Please help us spread the word about the revised plans by sharing this message on Facebook and your website.

We want your input!  The public is invited to a meeting to discuss options to repair, restore and enhance Chester Creek within Chester Bowl. The meeting will be held on Tuesday, December 11th from 7:00-8:30 PM at the Duluth Police Department Conference Room located at 2030 North Arlington Avenue. We encourage you to get involved by attending this meeting and providing comments.

For more information contact Chris Kleist, City of Duluth, or call 218-355-0598.  Comments are preferred via email or in writing and can be submitted to Chris Kleist, City of Duluth at 520 Garfield Avenue, Duluth, MN 55802 or on the Parks and Recreation web site. Comments should be submitted by December 28, 2102.
