skills learned in the previous class. A student who does not possess the

of the other students as well as his or her own, and will not be allowed 

to continue. 

Students may register for only one session of classes at a time. 

Student must be finished with half of their current course to 

register for future classes and must have a recommendation from 

their instructor to advance.

aquatic class fills. You will be contacted by staff if openings occur due 

to cancellations, or if new classes are added.

New! Older Active Adults Water/Swim Lessons 

Do you have a fear of water? Wouldn’t dare to think of putting 

your face under? Perhaps you have grandkids now and would like 

to be able to enjoy water play with them. This class is designed to 

help you conquer your fear and learn to be comfortable in such 

situations. Instructor Debbie Zarling is an aquatic therapist who 

has taught children and adults at Courage Center for 15 years. 

She looks forward to the opportunity to work again with adults 

to enhance their enjoyment of the water. Water can bring people 

together socially and also for a good physical work out, whether 

just walking or actually learning how to swim.

(952) 933-2452 www.mini-hops.com 

Recreation Services has teamed up with Mini-Hops Gymnastics 

to provide a series of youth tumbling and gymnastics activities for 

the toddler and pre-school aged child. All classes are conducted 

at Mini-Hops. Visit their website, or call for map and driving 

instructions. 

Mini-Hops is a non-profit, parent-supported organization 

celebrating 35 years of providing an opportunity for children 

in our community to participate, learn and enjoy the skills of 

gymnastics in a safe, wholesome, family friendly environment. At 

the same time, Mini-Hops provides an avenue for gymnasts with 

high athletic aspirations to grow in a program where they can 

achieve their maximum potential. 

The goal of the pre-school gymnastics program at Mini- 

Hops is to provide your child with a positive, nurturing, safe 

and energetic learning experience. We aim to build strength, 

flexibility, endurance and self-confidence while having fun— 

giving children a jump on life through gymnastics. 

Almost Me (Ages 2 ½ –3 ½ Years): This class introduces the 

structure of preschool in very small increments and begins 

preparing children for their next steps of independence. A parent 

still accompanies their child and continues to use this class as 

a special bonding time. At the same time, we help to foster 

independence by offering fun and challenging activities the child 

can accomplish all by themselves. 40 minutes, Ratio 6:1 

Lil Hoppers (Ages 3½ –4 ½ Years): This class is designed for 

development of gymnastics, hand-eye coordination, ball-handling 

skills, movement to music, and overall fitness, using large and 

small motor equipment where students learn and have FUN. 

These Lil’ Hoppers learn by achieving skills, which in turn fosters 

self-esteem. Developing healthy learning attitudes is vital during 

their formative preschool years. 60 minutes, Ratio 6:1 

Mini-Hops charges an annual registration fee that will be due 

on the first day of class at Mini-Hops. For more details contact

Baseball Clinics 

Developmental Baseball Clinics— 

Hitting, Fielding and Pitching (Pitching 

for baseball only) 

Players—here is your opportunity to improve 

your skills, gain confidence and have some fun 

leading into the spring season. Each of these 

4-week clinics focus on specific skill sets: hitting, 

pitching, or fielding. Hitting clinics offer an 

excellent 5:1 player to instructor ratio, while 

pitching and fielding clinics offer a 5:1 ratio of 

professional & confidence-building instruction. 

It is our experience and belief that a player needs 

individual attention to significantly improve, 

which empowers a player to have more fun at the 

ballpark. 

Practice with a purpose – Certified Pine Tar 

Academy instructors lead each clinic with a stated 

goal to simply stay loose, have fun, and get better 

one opportunity at a time. Students are given 

ample opportunity to actively engage in the 

learning process with the approach that practice 

makes permanent…not perfect! Instructors create 

a positive learning environment while students 

learn the value of hard work, failing productively, 

and the importance of focusing in the moment 

illustrated in a baseball context. These are 

habits that will help players strive for excellence 

whether at the ballpark or in the classroom. 

This developmental process takes place under 

the watchful eye of instructors with extensive 

experience playing and coaching at all levels. 

The 4-week hitting, fielding and/or pitching 

clinics are geared towards players ages 7–13, 

while Pine Tar Academy offers other group and 

individual activities for players of all ages (please 

call or email baseball office for details.) Each 

clinic runs 4 consecutive weeks and has a limit 

of 10 students, giving players the individual 

attention required for improvement. Hitting 

& pitching clinics are offered multiple nights/ 

times as listed below. Clinics are 50 minutes long 

with an additional 10 minutes of open batting 

cage time (a player favorite) to show off their 

developing skills! Register today–clinics fill fast!

Garden Plots 

Land has been set aside for residents of Hopkins and Minnetonka for the sole purpose of 

gardening. The cities disc the land in the spring and stake the corners of each plot approximately 

the middle of May. Register early as these sites fill quickly! For both cities, plots go on sale March 

5 for residents. Non-residents may purchase any remaining plots starting March 12. Registration 

is in-person on a first-come, first-serve basis. Proof of residency is required of new registrants. 

Limit two plots per household. For more information, call (952) 939-8203. 

Note: Minnetonka gardeners who puchased a plot last year and already established proof of 

residency, may register by phone and pay with Visa, Master Card or Discover. When calling, you 

must know which plot you want (see map below) and be prepared with a second or third choice. 

Attention Gardeners! 

With the high demand for garden plots, gardeners agree to plant and properly maintain the 

reserved plot (adequately watered, foliage properly maintained, reasonably free of weeds). Anyone 

who does not keep a well-maintained garden will not be allowed to reserve a plot for the 2014 

season. 

The city of Minnetonka garden site is located at Excelsior Boulevard and Clear Spring Road. Minnetonka plots are 

leased in-person in the Recreation Department at Minnetonka City Hall or by calling (952) 939-8203.x 20’ plot 

Minnetonka garden plots are reserved for $25 per plot
