<br />The things the committee would like to do differently in 2007 would be: 1) Pre-sell banners to <br />businesses to hang in the big top. The circus recommended selling six 4' x 6' banners at $100 each. <br />Waste Management supplied the committee with a banner, which was hung at no charge, in exchange <br />for garbage service. The ticket outlets were given the option of hanging banners as a courtesy for <br />being ticket outlets, but none of the outlets supplied the committee with banners. The committee did <br />not have the time or the resources to pursue this as an additional fundraiser. 2) The pre-sale tickets <br />would be pushed harder as that is where the larger percentage of the proceeds came from; the ticket <br />outlets would also sell tickets the night before as late as possible. City Hall and outlets received many <br />calls after the tickets were picked up at 6:00 p.m. the night prior to the circus and the committee felt <br />the opportunity was missed to sell more pre-sale tickets. Committee Member Seeley suggested <br />including the time and date on the tickets and/or posters as to when the last pre-sale tickets are <br />available. 3) Post parking options clearly. Once the parking lot at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park was <br />full, the traffic was being directed to go around to Centerville Road and come in on the gravel road, <br />parking on the grass. It would have been easier to have this posted at the entrance to the gravel road. <br />4) Staff suggested it would be easier if the circus would take a check from the City of Centerville <br />opposed to only accepting cash. <br /> <br />Motion was made by Committee Member Seeley, seconded by Committee Member Pen to <br />recommend to City Council that the Kelly Miller Circus be secured for 2007, giving Committee <br />Member Amundsen the authority to select the date with the circus representative. All in favor. <br />Motion passed unanimously. <br /> <br />20f2 <br />
