own success. But they could not have made that move without the support and endorsement of this committee. By my count over 200 people each week came out to watch their show. Their success reflects well on the City of Centerville. To summarize for 2011we will finish the year well within budget. My congratulations to each of you on a job very well done. Flagpole at Cornerstone Park See Appearance above. Veteran's Memorial Plaque The Committee considered a sample of a Veteran's Memorial Plaque Committee Member Haiden supplied the committee for their review. While on a business trip, Committee Member Mark Haiden found a Veterans Memorial with the follow inscription. "In Grateful Recognition of all who have honorably served in the Armed Fores of the United States of America." No motion was made or seconded, however, the committee is considering using this inscription on a plague to be installed at the base of the new city flagpole Budget Discussion There was a long discussion on the status of the Parks and Recreation budget. That discussion is summarized as follows: Fete des Lacs Park and Rec events The committee had a lengthy discussion regarding what project(s) the committee would like to fund with the revenue from the 2011 Festival of the Lakes 8K events. The committee has a Park Reserve fun with a $2,500 donation from Dead Broke Saddle Club for a sand volleyball court. This project is estimated to cost approximately $10,000. Committee Member Seeley made a motion to request City Council allocate $2,500 of the revenue for the sand volleyball court and request the remaining balance of $1,666 be put into a new line called Park Project Fund to potentially be used for items such as trail signage and lighting for the flag pole in Cornerstone Park. This motion failed for a lack of a second. The committee felt the revenue needed to be specifically earmarked for a project and requested City Council allocate the entire amount to the sand volleyball court. This will bring the balance in the account to $6,166. The committee will then request additional funding from Dead Broke Saddle Club. Motion was made by Committee Member Peterson, seconded by Committee Member Haiden to recommend to City Council allocate the $3,666 Revenue from the 2011 Festival of the Lakes 8K events to the Park Reserve Fund for the sand volleyball court.
