Dunbar stressed keeping an open dialog with the school. Sweeney said we do use the school facilities extensively for programs especially at Bluffview. He said at the end of each school year he works with the athletic director to set up use of the buildings. They have always had access but last year we had a problem with the weight room use. The school did offer to pay someone to man the weight room but they lost considerable money on it and questioned if they will do it again.
Security is also a problem.
Johnson mentioned the softball programs and asked if they had a large adult participation. Sweeney said yes. Johnson felt the city could do a lot more to improve the softball field to make it more attractive. He suggested we put in an automatic watering system and some type of dugouts. He also suggested using the broadcast booth for a storage.
