ADULT ACTIVITIES <br />Lifestyle Educational Classes <br />This category relates to classes added because of our overall new <br />program of Healthy People Lifestyle Program. These classes include <br />the stop smoking, stress management, sport injuries, weight control <br />and others which are more educational versus the physical classes <br />which are also part of the overall program. These figures are also <br />just the registrations through the New Brighton Department even though <br />the programs. were offered in combination with Mounds View. This program <br />is going through some changes and staff of both cities is presently <br />reviewing what directions we should continue. <br />Basketball <br />This league takes in teams whose members live or work in New Brighton, <br />Aiounds View and St. Anthony. Since there is a limit on facilities <br />available, there is a limit on the number of participants. We did <br />drop one team for the 1983-84 season. Our maximum is 12 teams. We <br />have also combined efforts with Mounds View - they offer the 3 man <br />basketball and we run the 5 man basketball. We do know that for the <br />1984-85 season we will be at the maximum. <br />Softball <br />Softball demand is constantly increasing from year to year.. We did <br />• increase our Thursday night use of fields to the maximum because <br />there was the demand. But due to the limitation on our facilities <br />it will be a difficulty to meet the demands. This past summer was also.. <br />one of the worst for rain outs, although that did not alter our <br />participation numbers, it did alter the quality of their satisfaction. <br />Fall Softball <br />In _1983 there was an overwhelming increase of interest for fall softball. <br />This year we lost some men's teams but a women's league was offered <br />which kept the numbers for the 2 years the same. <br />Volleyball <br />This has been a pretty steady number because the number of teams in <br />each league offered has pretty much. remained consistent over the <br />years. The volleyball clinics have helped increase the number of <br />participants over last year. In addition, the Olympics has had the <br />effect of creating more demand for power-refereed volleyball, because <br />of this we have more women's teams in our league and will be offering <br />a second night of co-rec power volleyball since we've. reached our <br />maximum for the one night. <br />• <br />
