RYAA's president, Rich Quaal was expected to be <br />present to speak to the expected trends in youth athletics. At this point Mr. Quaal had not yet <br />joined the meeting. <br /> <br />Mr. Boos stated that Mr. Quaal was not confident of all the numbers presented and that is why <br />the projections were stamped "draft." He questioned if the projections are based on the current <br />or projected increase in population. <br /> <br />Commissioner Droegemueller indicated the Ramsey baseball team has been combined with teams <br />from Anoka and Andover and games are spread throughout the three communities. The reason <br />for this effort was due to the fact that there were not enough recruits fi.om Ramsey last year. He <br />stated the combined city teams will travel to other cities to play. <br /> <br />Commissioner Droegemueller also stated the numbers shown were for the City of Ramsey only <br />but there will be more than just Ramsey teams represented. <br /> <br />Mr. Quaal joined the meeting and Chair Cook asked if the children fi.om the Anoka and Andover <br />baseball teams were being included in the numbers. <br /> <br />Mr. Quaal stated they were not but he felt the numbers are fairly accurate. <br /> <br />Chair Cook asked how much the total number will change if the other teams are taken into <br />consideration. <br /> <br />Mr. Quaal indicated he was not sure but this years' total participation is approximately 1020. <br /> <br />Mr. Boos commented that the number of teams playing changes through out the week. <br /> <br />Park and Recreation Commission/September 10, 1998 <br /> Page 2 of 8 <br /> <br /> <br />
