To introduce myself, I am the Recreation Services Manager for Saint Paul Parks and Recreation. Over the past few days, a number of individuals have forwarded me postings from this discussion group. Your comments are timely, as our Recreation Center staff are currently conducting community meetings, which we have institutionalized and now conduct twice per year. Eliciting feedback like that contained in your postings is the purpose of the community meetings.
