Parks & Recreation Committee Meeting Minutes April 2, 2008 drop them off at the new public works building. He would provide a gate opener to access the dumpster. Summer Programs Included in the packet was a flyer from the YMCA for the summer programs. Ms. Liz Guimont dropped off 1,500 copies to be included in the next utility bill and be distributed to local businesses. Ollie & Company, Skate Board Competition In discussing the Ollie & Company events, Council Member Lee reported he had talked to Mr. Keiselhorst regarding having Ollie & Company as a Fete des Lacs event and Mr. Keiselhorst agreed it would be great to have an event specifically focused on the teenagers, but the Centerville Lions probably cannot finance the event. The June event is connected to Fete des Lacs also in that the Battle of the Bands would be a pre-elimination for the Fete des Lacs Battle of the Bands. Council Member Lee is willing to use his PA equipment for the June event at no cost. Committee Member Lee has worked up a design for fliers/posters and Vice-Chairperson Amundsen has worked on a design for the T-shirts. The committee felt that this is an important event for the youth of the community and would like City Council to consider reallocating some of the funds that would have been spent on the parade to cover the expenses of both Ollie & Company events. Motion was made by Committee Member Selander, seconded by Committee Member Haiden, to recommend to City Council the funding of a June 2008 Ollie & Company/Battle of the Bands event and a Fete des Lacs Ollie & Company event by reallocating some of the Fete des Lacs Parade funds, not to exceed $2,000 total for both eventsAll in favor.
