Walker, CMC, Village Clerk MEMORANDUM t O: DENNIS KELLY, VILLAGE MANAGER date: 4-17-89 fro m :MARK HGDGKINS, RECREATION DIRECTGR S U ~J @ C t: July 4th Activities After talking to former Mayor Mundt and the former`Village Manager Ray Howland, I was instructed to formulate hth of July activities with the surrounding communities for two reasons. First, the site of our previous celebrations will be under construction, and secondly, the quality of fireworks in the past couple of years has been lacking. Let me explain where we are at the present time. I have met twice ~~ with the Palm Beach Gardens and Gardens Mall officials. The plans are for a full day of activities including a Biathalon, Volleyball Tournament, Fashion Show, Boat Show, Food Booths, Game Booths, Children's Games, Bands and other entertainment. The theme of the celebration is a family picnic type format. The cost of the fireworks is going to be divided between the three involved and will be well below the $10,000 we have budgeted.- The cost of the other activities will dlso be.:split and will be kept well under budget. We have also obtained a few corporate sponsors to defray the costs. Some of those included are Deep Rock Water, William Thies ans Sons :of Palm Beach, and Pepsi Cola. WRMF will play music coordinating ' 'with the fireworks. Door prizes will be given out to residents of North Palm Beach and Palm Beach Gardens only. The Village Council will be invited to_attend the opening ceremonies at approximately noon, along with other dignitaries. I believe this program will be a definite asset to this Village. ~~ tea, 9 ~ ~ Y• 9 Y'~- r~a~woaks /U-S7Z-o9 •3r93Z .. - qct Accau.,;~s l~n /0 -~7z-OY3.3`IY?0 a~ loe~~: w~,.ro,c~n,6gN~s a~~N usEd.N ~~s~ Hf-I aF SuLy Cl%~C, ~o'- ~'~z-oy3 ';35293 ~b~ vvv.zs 2~FaESdMawt~ .._ - ~I~ - ~-'./~-
