tle. Janet Thompson, Merrill Girls Head Tennis
Varsity Coach, will be teaching the camp. Any
questions regarding the camp call Janet at 715536-4618.
Make tennis a part of your summer! Learn
basic stroke fundamentals and then work on
improving them through lots of different drills,
games, and fun competitions.
It’s great to see kids start to play tennis.
My goal is to instill in them a love of the game
that lasts a lifetime. I wanted to offer a program
that runs throughout most of the summer. I am
hoping that the option of one or two mornings
a week will work well with families’ schedules, vacations, etc. We will have a number of
assistants helping out and that will enable us
to divide up participants into groups based on
playing experience. Those that need to learn
the basics can spend more time doing that, and
those who have been playing for a while will
be part of more advanced activities. In addition,
for kids age ten and under we will use smaller
and lighter racquets and balls that are larger and
bounce more slowly. That equipment makes
learning so much easier. I’m hoping that all of
the kids in the program will then get out and
play with friends and their families. I would
love to see lots of people out on the courts all
summer long!

ensure the safety of the kids. If you are willing to volunteer please call Dawn at 715-5367313. WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!

Senior Strength Group Exercise
Senior Strength group exercise class will be held at the
MARC on six Tuesday mornings starting May 5 and running through June 9. Sessions are from 9:00 – 9:45 a.m.
This total-body conditioning class takes you through a variety of exercises designed to increase muscular strength
and range of movement which will make it easier for you
to keep doing the things you like to do. While many of our
exercises are done seated, we do spend some time on our
feet with our chair for balance support. All of this stretching and weightlifting is done to familiar music, so it’s fun,
and it’s totally okay to sing along if you want. This class is
designed primarily for active older adults, but is also a great
class for people who are just starting to exercise, regardless
of their age.
Please bring a set of light hand weights or water bottles
that you can get your hands around.
Most people choose something in the 2-5 pound range.
You will also need to bring an elastic tubing resistance band
with handles. (The yellow one available at Wal-Mart is a
good choice.)
The Thera-Band you got at physical therapy can be
substituted for the resistance band. Bring what you’ve got,
after the first class you’ll know if it works for you or not.
Our leader is Jane Francoeur, a certified group exercise
instructor with over five years of experience working with
older adults. Jane understands that visiting is an important
part of why you go to a class, so she’s always there 15 minutes before class time to make it easier for you to catch up
with your friends and classmates.
The fee for each class is $4.00. If you like, you can
purchase a punch card for all six classes for $22.50.

MERRILL PARK AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT
AND THE MERRILL POLICE DEPARTMENT
RECEIVE A GRANT FROM “COPS AND KIDS FOUNDATION”
Foundation, Inc. Bob Kraemer wrote in his
mission statement that he learned the best
way to change the public’s perspective is to
start with the children, that is why he created several community service programs
aimed at kids.
Each year the Merrill Park and Recreation Department has about 150 kids
involved in the Summer Playground Program and we feel incorporating Badges
and Bulls Eye and Gutter Buster, will be a
great opportunity to get both organizations
and the kids working together as a team.
The Merrill Park and Recreation Department and The Merrill Police Department
were awarded a three year grant through
the Cops and Kids Foundation. Lincoln
Lanes, Lincoln County Sportsman Club,
Wendorf Bus and a few other organizations will be helping out with sponsoring
the program.
the Badges and Bulls Eye program and the
Gutter Busters program. Badges and Bulls
Eyes is a program designed to teach kids
archery. This program gets kids active in
a fun and unique manner. Archery teaches kids discipline, safety, and patience all
while having fun and interacting with cops.
Gutter Busters is designed to teach kids
bowling. The idea is to challenge kids and
teach them the meaning of sportsmanship,
integrity, and respect for others. Bowling is
a relatively inexpensive and widely available activity that provides kids with a positive alternative to getting in trouble.
The mission of the Cops and Kids
Foundation is to break down barriers, and
teach police officers and citizens to trust
and depend on each other. Citizens and
the police have the same goals….we both
want safe neighborhoods and a better place
to live. President of the Cops and Kids
In February of 2015, Dawn Smith,
Administrative Assistant for the Merrill
Park and Recreation Department, came
across the Cops and Kids Foundation. After reviewing the Cops and Kids Foundation goals and missions Smith decided this
would be the perfect fit for the Merrill Park
and Recreation Department and The Merrill Police Department. Police Chief Ken
Neff agreed that this would be the perfect
way for the Merrill Police Department
to get actively involved with the Merrill
Park and Recreation Department and also
a great opportunity to show kids that police officers are here to be friends with the
youth and serve as positive role models.
The goal is also to improve the image of
uniformed officers in the eyes of kids, parents and the community.
Two of the programs that the departments will be working together on will be
