Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council Monday, October 17, 2016 Page 6 Spanish lessons. Most of these were requested from the results of the senior survey. There will be a Lunch N Learn program on Wednesday, October 26rh about how hearing loss affects our mental health. It is being sponsored by Zounds Hearing. The Second Annual Mayfield Art Show was held from October 9th through the 16th at Mayfield Library. Thank you Bill for allowing us to use your building. Parks and Recreation Board- We had a meeting on Wednesday, September 21St at 7:00 p.m. in the new Community Room. We reviewed the Debbie Hudacko run and walk, the summer camp and Parkview Pool season this past summer. Youth Halloween party is this Saturday, October 22nd from 1:30-3:00: The Commmittee members agreed to move it to the Civic Center instead of the new Community Room. They thought the Civic Center would be more suitable for kids with refreshments and food as well as hanging decorations and the games. We will keep the new Community Room in good shape. My only concern is parking. We have to deal with Heinen's on a Saturday afternoon. The Committee members discussed how to control the size of the party and who should be able to attend. They agreed to offer the party for Mayfield Village residents and their families only. They must pre-register in advance through the Parks and Recreation Department. This was a result of our Easter Party where we had about 200 individuals who attended. That was 150 more than we anticipated. I think we have about 25 registered right now. We made the decision at the time, we only had one family registered, I made the administrative decision to make a hard copy and take it over to Center School where most of our Mayfield Village students are. Hopefully we don't have another 200 people showing up for the Halloween Party this Saturday. The next meeting is this Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. Coanrnission on Aging -They met last Thursday, October 13th. Discussion was held about the Senior Fair which was very well attended, current classes and trips, Lunch N Learn, Lunch N Movie and the HARP Safe Driving Class. We had a large number taking that class. Plans are underway for annual Holiday Party on December 9th. The Commission members were updated on the snow removal. We have 220 registered. At this point we do not know opt-outs. With regard to the leaf-raking program, 12 people have applied. We are working on getting individuals to help out. If anybody wants to volunteer, contact Donna at the Senior Services Department. Discussion was also held about the Mayfield Art Show and the Watercolor Artist Student's Art Show. There were 140 total entries but they only accepted 40. Our own Flo Smith's watercolor class actually took first, second and third place in the Art Show. I commend the class. Stacy O'Brien of the Community Partnership on Aging updated members about what they will be doing as a result of the first phase of the Innovation Grant they received. She also reported on the Medicare Open Enrollment Program, a day of scary movies on October 24th at the Civic Center and the Chili Cook-Off on November St" at the Lyndhurst Community Center. The next meeting will be held on Thursday, January 12th at 11:00 a.m. in the Community Room.
