The Ice Skating Institute (ISI) is
a complete graded program of lessons
with a high standard for correctness.
The ISI Testing Program makes every
effort for skaters to earn badges. We
will test only those skaters ready to
pass, sb as to make it a positive
environment for learning. As of now,
test day will be at the end of each
session. With the transition from one
testing program to the other we want
to take it a step at a time. Keep in
mind that it is not uncommon for a
skater to repeat a level before
mastering all the skills required.
Skates and Skating Attire
Staff recommends boots of
leather rather than vinyl or molded
plastics. Blades should be properly

Holz Farm
Visit Historic Holz Farm
Take a nostalgic walk into the
past at Holz Farm, a 1940's era family
farm acquired by the City of Eagan in
1995 to preserve the rich farming
history of the era. The farm is
located in the southeast corner of
Eagan, alongside Holz Lake, at 4665
Manor Drive. Currently, the eight
acres owned by the City are used for
educational, historical and
entertainment activities. In 1996,
efforts began to restore the house,
barn and outbuildings to reflect the
1940's era.
The Friends of the Farm, a non-
profit group, was formed to expedite
progress with fundraising, restoration,
and programming at Holz Farm.
Membership information is available

Seniors
Eagan Seniors
There are more than 6,000
people over the age of 55 here in
Eagan, according to the 2000 census
information. That makes up almost
10% of Eagan's total population, and
that number is expected to increase
over the next several years. ,
If you are one of the 6,000 plus
in this age range and haven't
participated in one of the many
programs sponsored by the Eagan
Parks and Recreation Department,
why not give it a try this season? The
following pages offer a small sample
of the programs offered, but more
detailed information comes out every
two months, free of charge, in the
News From the Front Porch. To have your
name added to the mailing list, simply
call Eagan and Recreation at
651 - 681 -4660. If you don't find what
you're looking for, please let us know.
City staff wants to create an
atmosphere where you can participate
in things that interest you, whether it's
a day trip; vacation, educational
experience, fitness opportunity, social
activity, a night on the town or
anything else. But your help is needed.
Only with your active participation
can Eagan create a "senior program"
that everyone can be proud to be a
part of as the senior population
continues to grow.
See page 31 for information about
Senior Golf League opportunities on
Tuesday and Thursday mornings
this summer!

The pavilions will accommodate groups as large as 150 people. Picnic
necessities such as water and electricity are available at each pavilion. Restroom

creates the feeling of being close to the trees and the water of Schwanz Lake.
The Thomas Lake pavilion features similar openness and the room to
spread out. The feeling of seclusion is surprising in our suburban setting.
The Blackhawk Park pavilion overlooks Blackhawk Lake and provides
excellent views of the Minnesota River Valley. Open space for picnic games,
walking trails, and a large fire ring are features of this facility.
