The council unanimously accepted a generous donation of two scoreboards from the Ellerbrooke family (order 26.017) for Ellerbrooke Field, which was named for longtime Parks & Recreation Director Ray Ellerbrooke.
Parks & Recreation staff described the family's long history of giving to fields and facilities, noting past gifts including storage sheds, playground rebuilding and pickleball courts.
