Student Open Gym Activity - Traci Warnberg-Lemm and Heidi Geiss
presented information on the after school program that takes place in the
concession lobby area on Mondays & Wednesdays from 3 -5 pm. Good
relationships are being established and the number of kids participating in the 3-5
free student open gym has increased dramatically. Youth First is also currently
working on resources to fund another court for middle school students during the
06-07 school year.
The ACC has received a few phone calls and emails from parents of students
expressing concern over the number of students and other activities that have
happened during this open gym. Erick requested that Traci present information
as to the cost that would be involved in having Youth First in the building Monday
- Thursday to help structure activities. Erick will also proceed with hiring a ACC
Staff person for supervision in the gym. In the mean time, ACC staff will visit the
Field House more frequently and ensure only middle school and HS students
from the Andover area are present during this free open gym.
Mr. Durand left at 9 pm.
A request was made by Mr. Kellogg to look at concession sales during the
student open gym. Erick distributed a handout indicating these totals.
