<br />. <br /> <br />- <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />~ <br />~HILLS <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />Agenda Item No. 3.B <br /> <br />July 23,2003 <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />Aaron Parrish - Director of Community Services <br /> <br />CC: <br /> <br />Thomas J. Moore - Director of Operations and Maintenance <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />Michelle Olson - Recreation Program Supervisor -tJl!) <br /> <br />SUBJECT: "Celebrating Arden Hills - Beach Barbecue" <br /> <br />Backl!round <br />Earlier this year, the City Council made the decision to continue what was formerly called "Day <br />in the Park" as an annual event. Despite the weather issues, the 2003 "Celebrating Arden Hills - <br />Beach Barbecue" was indeed a success! As a follow up to the event, I would like the City <br />Council to discuss a couple of items regarding this annual event. <br /> <br />. How should this event be planned, organized, and carried out? The event <br />committee members continue to dwindle. This year's committee was a small <br />group of seven residents (including the Mayor and her son), one council liaison, <br />and one staff liaison. Do we want to attempt to recruit members for this <br />committee or has this changed to a staff driven event? If the City Council wants <br />this to be a staff driven event, how will that be handled? <br /> <br />. Is the Council comfortable with the current scope of the event? Do we want <br />to continue a catered theme dinner? What did you like about the event? What <br />didn't you like? Is there anything different that Council would like to try for the <br />future? <br /> <br />Recommendation <br />Staff is looking for feedback on this year's event and would also like to be provided direction on <br />how the event is organized, planned, and carried out for the future. <br />
