Recreation Commission Meeting <br />June 5, 2006 <br />Page Six <br /> <br />talked with people and there is no advertising. There must be something put up on the marquee in <br />front of City Hall or at the Park. Ms. Drenski said there was a higher attendance this year – over <br />1,000 people for the weekend. Ms. Jones said that if people don’t walk into the Rec Department, they <br />will not see it. It was out of this world. This year Jeff Marshall danced with his wife this year. Ms. <br />Drenski asked when Ms. Jones went; she replied she attended the 8:00 p.m. on Saturday. Ms. Drenski <br />asked Ms. Jones if Jeff did his jump; Ms. Jones said somewhat of a jump. Ms. Drenski said that Jeff <br />could do a split jump where he touches his toes with his legs straight out. Ms. Jones said the cutest <br />act was the Mini-Mouse/Mickey Mouse kids who skated slowly. It was so funny. When the encore <br />came, all the kids skated all the way down and around; one little kid got smart and went straight <br />across. Anyway, Ms. Jones said, the Commission missed out on a good thing. <br /> <br />North Olmsted Community Council <br /> <br />Ms. Jones stated that the North Olmsted Community Council gave money to put into the Endowment <br />Capital Fund for electricity at the Pavilion, and as soon as the electrician finds time to do it, it will be <br />done. Also, the benches were ordered. Sixty benches will be used at Homecoming around the rides. <br />When they are not being used there, they will be placed around the park. The cost was less than <br />$14,000 for everything. <br /> <br />Restrooms <br /> <br />Ms. Jones said that Ted (DiSalvo) reported that the bathrooms at the park will not happen until next <br />year. Is this correct, Paul? Mr. Barker said he wasn’t sure. The way the funding works is that if it <br />has to go to bid, so it will travel into next year. When the restrooms are hooked up, Community <br />Council will be able to run water to the Pavilion. <br /> <br />Playground Equipment <br /> <br />Mr. Baxter asked about the playground equipment. Ms. Jones said that Mr. DiSalvo said it would be <br />coming soon. Ms. Jones said that Ted was at the Community Council meeting to thank us. Ms. <br />Drenski said she was under the impression the playground equipment was going to be installed by fall. <br /> <br />VISITOR’S OPPORTUNITY TO ADDRESS COMMISSION <br /> <br />Mr. Sanborn arrived late (approximately 7:30 p.m.) to the meeting for observance purposes; he will be <br />mailed a copy of the June Minutes for his information. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Recreation Commission Meeting <br />Page 6 <br /> <br />
