The Rosemount Lions Club has requested the City of Rosemount name the park located in Wensmanns 8th

this park much the same way as other groups do through our Adopt -a -Park Program.
The Parks and Recreation Committee has reviewed this request and recommends to City Council to name
the requested park "Lions Park". Mr. Molenda will be present to speak at the meeting to represent the
Rosemount Lions Club.

"Lions Park".

Dear Tim:

P.O. Box 115
Rosemount, Minnesota 55068
I write as Parks Committee Chair for the Rosemount Lions Club. Please accept our sincere
gratitude for all the assistance you and your staff have given us in our attempt to serve the
community and garner new members by creating a "Lions Park ".
At our general membership meeting on November 20, 1995, a resolution was passed requesting
that the City of Rosemount name the park under consideration in the Wensmann 7th Addition
"Lions Park ". We believe that the facilities there will be ones which where we can help the City
effectively maintain. We also believe that park would also be the sight of community and
neighborhood events which would create positive publicity for the Rosemount Lions Club.
We hope that the Parks and Recreation Committee will forward our request to the City Council
for their consideration. As you requested, I will be present at the December 18, 1995 Parks and
Recreation Committee meeting. Once again, thank you for all of your assistance.
Very your'
Michael E. Molen&
