SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The Parks and Recreation Department would like to submit a grant request of up to $500 to the McCall Progressive Club to help replace old and outdated youth Nordic ski equipment that
was obtained used from Gravity Sports over 15 years ago. The equipment, which included classic skis, boots and poles, was used in the 2017/2018 winter season by:
Boy Scout Troops- annual jamboree in McCall
McCall Winter Sports Club
McCall Daycare- winter fieldtrips to Ponderosa State Park
Council Elementary School- Annual ski/snowshoe field trip at state park
Loaner Equipment Program- Approx. 20 times a season
Twenty-four (24) complete sets were donated to Council School District after their annual field trip to McCall in March. Currently, there are 10 sets remaining. The department would
like to purchase fifteen sets (120-160cm skis, boots and poles) of rental gear from one of our local sports dealers in McCall; an estimated total cost of $3105. The requested funds
will be added to the funds ($2585) recently requested from the McCall-Donnelly Education Foundation, resulting in minimal ($20) or no matching funds needed from the City of McCall.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve submittal of a McCall Progressive Club Grant application for purchase of youth Nordic ski equipment and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
