Parks & Recreation Committee <br /> Meeting Minutes 03-03-10 <br /> Music in the Parks Pro�ram <br /> Ms. Stephan received the following email correspondence from Ms. Kathi LaValle. She is <br /> unable to attend this meeting, but wanted her request brought to the committee for discussion. <br /> Does Centerville plan to offer music in the park again this year? I play with the Centennial <br /> Communiry Band, which is 35 member concert band in Circle Pines and they have asked me to <br /> contact you about performing a concert. Would this be a possibility? The Centennial Communiry <br /> Band plays classical concert music. I am not sure about how they would fit. The leader asked me to <br /> check with you. They usually play parks for about $300 to be donated to the fund that goes for buying <br /> additional percussion instruments, or music. We've played at Blaine Ciry Hall Park a couple of times <br /> for that amount. (But I think they would play for less) It's really a very good band. Maybe they would <br /> have to set up in the parking lot? It may not work. Let me know what you think...I can ask the band <br /> leader. <br /> The committee is interested in this option as well as the other bands affiliated with Ms. LaValle that <br /> played in the parks last year. They would like Ms. LaValle to attend the next meeting if possible to <br /> discuss dates, bands, availability and costs. <br /> The committee would like to use the $1,500 donation from American Family Insurance for the Music <br /> in the Parks Program in 2010.
