 <br />The planning meeting with all departments, including Lex Media, but not the Fire <br /> <br />Department, was held last week. There are no major changes for Patriots’ Day. <br /> <br />Dick Crogan contacted Lee Ann Swanson at LHS to ask for six to twelve student <br /> <br />volunteers for the day. (Students will earn community service hours.) The committee <br />discussed where the students might be assigned, and suggestions were made as to <br />other groups we might contact for volunteers. <br /> <br />Sondra Lucente will call Mahoney’s Garden Center as to their participation. <br /> <br /> <br />The Munroe Center for the Arts is interested in participating. <br /> <br /> <br />Linda Dixon recommended wider use of the committee website for next year, <br /> <br />including online registrations. Suzie will talk with Candy McLaughlin, Assistant to the <br />Town Manager, about possibilities for expanding the capabilities of the committee <br />website. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Suzie Barry will contact Candy about posting the banner bearer form this year for online sign up. <br /> <br /> Since the Dana Home has closed, a suggestion was made to move the “All Bands Play <br /> <br />Here” sign from the Dana Home site to a point forward, closer to St. Brigid’s. <br /> <br />Paul Jenkins asked if money is available in the budget to accommodate including trucks <br /> <br />in the afternoon parade again this year. <br /> <br />Motions were made and unanimously accepted to <br /> <br />accept the applications received from the no cost groups as participants. <br /> <br /> <br />accept the applications received from the groups for pay at either the same fee as last <br /> <br />year or less. <br /> <br />Additional discussion <br /> <br />Suzie Barry and Bob Tracey will contact the groups requesting more money. <br /> <br /> <br />We will accept the Mt. Pleasant Area High School Band, Mt. Pleasant, PA, application to <br /> <br />march and see about paying them. <br /> <br />Jim Shaw reports that the Reminisents is definitely interested in participating. The John <br /> <br />Penney Band is also interested, but the group needs a driver. Paul Jenkins will see if he <br />can arrange for this. <br /> <br />The LHS Band application was submitted without a fee request. The committee <br /> <br />discussed increasing last year’s amount a little more. Suzie Barry will speak with Jeff <br />Leonard. <br /> <br />Meeting adjourned at 8:40 pm. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Sandy Podgorski <br />
