SUB J: Park Pride Day
Chanhassen's Annual Park Pride Day was Saturday, April 27. A total of 5 girl scout and
brownie troops participated. Meadow Green, Rice Marsh Lake. Hidden Valley Trail,
Chanhassen Pond, and Powerhill Park were all cleaned. The groups picked up enough
garbage to fill the back of a city dump truck. Mayor Chmiel really made the day by
crowning every child with a participant medal. The kids were very excited and felt good
about their accomplishment. The medals are fun and should be continued. A total of 50-
75 kids and parents participated. A picnic lunch which included hot dogs, chips, and pop
was served to everyone. Arbor month hats, t-shirts, and sweatshirts were raffled off,
which added to the excitement.
Park Pride Day is a fun event that helps beautify the city parks. The program should
continue again next year. My recommendation is to shift the coordination from the Park
and Recreation Department to Jill Sinclair, our environmental specialist. Jill coordinates
many activities that day and it seems like a natural fit. I would certainly assist in
coordinating the first year to make the transition easier. The decision can be made before
the city starts its 1997 budget preparation.
The participants enjoyed themselves again this year, for this worthwhile event.
