Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council Monday, July 18, 2016 Page 6 I also wanted to commend Lieutenant Brothers, Firefighter Johnson, Firefighter Taddeo and Firefighter Zimmerman for their performance at the mutual aid fire on Saturday morning. They were all very professional and very utilized at the fire. They all did a really good job. I am proud of them. Council President Saponaro stated, excellent. Congratulations guys. William Thomas (Parks and Recreation) - On Sunday, July 10th, we held the 27th Annual Debbie Hudacko Memorial Hatrick Run. The hatrick is a 5-mile run that starts and ends at Parkview Pool and goes into North Chagrin Reservation and back to the pool. Once we complete that, we start on SK which is a 3.1 mile run that starts and ends on the Greenway Trail. The SK crosses Beta Drive. Then we conclude with a 2 mile run also on the Greenway Trail and finally our 2 mile walk. The runs equal 10.1 miles and we had more individuals running those three events than the past 3 years that we have done this. Through the efforts of Rich's Police Department staff who protect the runners at major intersections also motorcycles leading as well as following up in the rear, they did an exceptional job again this year. Thank you Rich. Along with the Police Department, we had the Community Emergency Response Team better known as CERT that guards our runners. I wanted to recognize the 7 individuals from CERT, Jerry Banks, Ginny Callen, Joanie Gottschling, Pat Gregoric, Karen Goda, Santosh Kolure and Theresa Whitehead. I thank them for all they do to support us. We also had Progressive's security blocking off their driveways as well as individuals from their security department making sure no one came in and out of those driveways. Also Interact Club, which was formerly Key Club, high school students helping out. I wanted to publicly thank our sponsors, Willoughby Supply, Mayfield Physical Therapy, Yours Truly, Heinen's, Parker and Streem Orthodontics, Megan Ursic Dentistry, Pizzaz Restaurants, Micelli's Fine Cheese and Health 360. I wanted to report to you about our pool. This past June, we had 6,662 individuals come through our turnstiles. Just through July 17th, we had 4,488 individuals come through. This has been a very good summer. Pretty dry and warm and hot. I wanted to let you know that in 2015, we had 3,313 individuals for June and 4,249 for 2014. We had an actual 10 days extra because they closed school on May 26th so we were able to get a jump on participation. I really thought that would be a problem this year but it's really worked out well that we have gathered over 2,000 members since the previous 2 years. Finally, we have our FalUWinter Parks and Recreation brochure that we are finalizing. That will go out in mid-August to the entire school district.
