Good Luck to All Participants 415 3rd Street NE Devils Lake, ND 58301 WELCOME FROM THE STAFF & COMMISSIONERS

The Devils Lake Park Board Staff and Commissioners welcome everyone once again to participate in our programs and activities and to make use of our facilities to make your leisure time more enjoyable and relaxing. Our mission is to promote and provide broad-based recreational programs to all the citizens of Devils Lake and the Lake Region area in order to improve the quality of life in our area.

This Activities Booklet contains the majority of our events and programs but more may be added as the year progresses and the need arises. We have tried to keep our activity fees as reasonable as possible and once again this year there are only a few minor fee increases. We will continue to keep our fees as low as possible but there may be a need to increase fees in the future as operating costs continue to increase.

We look forward to this coming year with excitement and enthusiasm as we once again have a number of events scheduled for the coming year. We will be hosting the 13 Year Old East Region Babe Ruth Tournament. We will once again be holding the week long Kids Fishing Camp in August. We continue to host a number of hockey and tournaments during the winter and are hoping to host another state hockey tournament this winter.

We encourage our citizens that have suggestions on improving or adding programs to please come forward with your ideas. We would like to take this opportunity to thank the many businesses, fraternal organizations, clubs, and individuals that support us throughout the year. These groups and individuals make it possible for us to provide the wide range of programs and facilities we offer to the Lake Region and our visitors.

RESIDENT/NON-RESIDENT FEES: The Devils Lake Park Board receives tax dollars only from residents in the city limits of Devils Lake; therefore, a set residential/non-residential fee will be charged for participating in the Devils Lake Park District recreational programs. There will be a maximum of $10.00 charged per activity for non-residents of the Park District.

PAYMENT OF FEES: Fees are to be paid at the time of registration.

REFUNDS: The Devils Lake Park Board has a NO REFUND policy for all programs unless the program is cancelled. Absolutely no refunds once a program begins.

SCHEDULING: The Devils Lake Park Board reserves the right to adjust scheduling, if necessary, based on the availability of instructors, facilities, and number enrolled in program. If program changes are made, those registered will be notified.

INSURANCE: The Devils Lake Park Board does not carry medical or accident insurance for the participants of its programs. The cost of doing so would be so high that fees charged for programs would become prohibitive. We suggest that you review your family’s personal health insurance plan to be sure that it provides you with sufficient coverage. We also recommend that all participants check with family physicians before participating in any program that requires physical exertion.

SCHOLARSHIPS/GRANTS: Youth activity scholarship money for low-income households are available through the Dakota Prairie Community Action Agency, located at 223 4th Street.

Title to the property, real, personal, or mixed shall be held in trust under the terms and conditions provided. Unless otherwise provided, no part of such property or the income from the property shall be diverted or used for any other purpose.
