AGENDA ITEM <br />Prepared By: Correy Farniok Reviewed By: A. Carlson Approved By: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />1. Purpose. The purpose of this action item is to gain approval to accept a donation from the Orono <br />Rotary and Chunks Automotive Services. <br /> <br />2. Background. For the past three years the police department has partnered with Chunks Automotive <br />Services in Long Lake to host a 16 hour class that teaches many components to firearm safety. This <br />course is the Minnesota DNR approved course for kids to be able to obtain a license to hunt. The <br />program includes safe handling, shooting, transporting and storage of firearms, components of hunting, <br />first aid and orienteering. A large part of the course is having positive mentors in these kids’ lives. <br /> <br />This program is a great collaboration between private business, government and a service club in our <br />community. The Orono Rotary Club has made a donation to the Orono Police Department in the amount <br />of $1090.00 for the purchase of equipment and supplies needed for the class. These items include 3-D <br />targets, tree stands and safety equipment for the students. <br /> <br />The Orono Police Department would also like to thank Mike Personius from Chunks Automotive <br />Services for his time support of the program as a primary instructor of the class. <br /> <br />3. Staff Recommendation. I recommend approval to accept the donation of $1090.00 to support the <br />Firearm Safety Program. <br /> <br /> <br />COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED <br />Motion for approval to accept donations of $1090.00 from the Orono Rotary Club. Thank you to the <br />members of the Orono Rotary Club for your kind and thoughtful donation and thank you to Mike <br />Personius for his donation of time and commitment as instructor for this program. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Item No.: 6 Date: September 27, 2021 <br />Item Description: Approval to Accept Donation – Orono Rotary and Chunks <br />Automotive Services <br />Presenter: Correy Farniok <br />Police Chief <br />Agenda <br />Section: <br />Consent Agenda
