At last Monday's city council meeting, [music] council agreed with the staff's recommendation to change the name of our future community center from what it has been, the Chinhassen Bluffs Community Center, to what it will be going forward, which is just the Chinhassen Community Center. It's the same plan. It's the same vision now with just fewer words on the sign. >> [music] >> The decision was based on resident feedback and a desire for a simpler, more intuitive name that more clearly reflects it [music] as Chanhasson's main community-owned community center. We have two new videos that we [music] hope you'll check out. The next edition of our wreck report goes behind the scenes of the city's ice rink operations. And our next the local video brings you inside [music] Hackamore Brewing. I know it's only February, but it's not too early to plan your summer. We still [music] have openings to reserve our picnic shelters for this coming summer. Don't forget about our ski and [music] snowboarding trip to Wild Mountain on February 27th for sixth, 7th, and eighth graders. Don't forget if you have an old cell phone that you're looking to get rid of, recycle them here at City Hall. And last but not least, don't forget about Febfest. That's right, Patrick. I'm out here at Lake Ann where the ice is solid for this Saturday's Febfest [music] and I'm brushing up on my fishing lingo for the ice fishing contest. Okay, so I'm going to want to [music] drop a glow jig tipped with a fathead down to about 18 ft. Uh, watch [music] your flasher light up for cruising walleye while casually debating whether to dead stick a second rod on a nearby tip up just in case a northern decides to cruise [music] the edge. Pretty good for an amateur, eh? And don't forget that we'll have bonfires, s'mores, [music] wagon rides, snowshoeing, skating, snow gaug, door prizes, and plenty of free family fun all around Lake Anne. Back to you, Patrick. That's it for now. We will check in with you next week when Drew will probably have a fishing story that just gets bigger and bigger every time he tells it.
