The August meeting of the Blair Park Board was called to order
at 7:30 p.m. by Secretary Trisdale. Members present were Marilyn
Gentry, George Wilson, and Bill Trisdale. Also present was Park
Curator Ralph Steyer and President of the Friends of the Arboretum,
Neil Jensen.
Due to the fact that there was not a quorum present, no items
could be acted upon. The following items were discussed on an
informal basis:
Neil Jensen gave a brief outline of what activities are being
done with the Arboretum. He also stated that if the Park Personnel
has projects they can not get to, they should notify them and they
will find the time if at all possible.

Ralph Steyer reported that he now has a complete inventory of
the park nursery that is destined for the park trails. He also
noted that some carelessness has resulted in some damage to a group
of rhododendrons and one tree (caliper 1 1/2" in size) being mowed
off. Perhaps the person responsible needs to be made aware of said
damage in hopes it does not happen again. Steyer also reported
that the glider swing seat at Lions Park is loose and needs fixed
and there are tables and benches missing from the Harry Arndt
shelter.
The status of the railroad right of way on the northeast side
of the grain elevator was discussed.
Discussion ended at about 8:30 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,
Bill Trisdale
Park Board Secretary
