00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:24.079
me know. She's not sure what she >> Okay. Um then we are still waiting to hear um Katherine Latro should be there. She's working on the lieutenant governor. The governor already declined. So, the lieutenant governor might um show up and if so, she'll read the

46
00:12:24.079 --> 00:12:38.880
proclamation. If not, we can have representative Lato read it. Um not quite sure on Senator Fernandees yet. We do have a representative. We made a request to the um veterans affairs office, but the uh veterans uh agent to

47
00:12:38.880 --> 00:12:55.279
speak. Um the new um state agent is not available, but they are sending someone from their office, so they'll speak something. They'll do a small speech um during the dedication part of it. >> Great. >> So that's what we have planned right now. >> Will, what do you have up for us for the

48
00:12:55.279 --> 00:13:10.800
videography? >> Okay. Yeah, I just want to request that when you guys start planning the seating setup and and set up for the areas in the on the town green, can you guys

49
00:13:10.800 --> 00:13:28.160
try to get the the podium like and like have a section right in front of the podiums kernled off for the camera so it's direct onto people's faces. >> Okay. Um, how about how about like a a few days before if we meet out there and

50
00:13:28.160 --> 00:13:43.519
you kind of give us an idea of what you need, >> would that work? >> Uh, that will probably work. I just need somehow to get down there because I have a broken foot. >> No broken toe. >> Broken toe. So, that will work. I just

51
00:13:43.519 --> 00:14:00.000
have to plan around it. >> Okay. We'll try to give you enough uh time frame so you can get there. Okay. >> Okay. Also, as I was at if do we have a rain date for it? >> Not for the proclamation, though. >> Okay. Do we know what will happen if it

52
00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:16.800
rains? >> Um, we're still going to go forward with it. Um, we do have the small gazebo there. We'll see. We'll see if there's um any tents or anything, but um the craft fair portion of it, we would be able to use the bail house. Correct. >> Uh yeah, I was just thinking that. Yeah,

53
00:14:16.800 --> 00:14:32.880
we should. Yeah. >> And you'll have a tent there. And then we we'll have a large tent on the Bill House lawn already. So that will cover some of the event. >> Okay. If so, if it does rain, can we try to get like a one of those big blue tents that we sometimes use for for a

54
00:14:32.880 --> 00:14:49.440
couple things so we can just put it over the camera setup? >> Um like a pop-up tent. Um yeah, I believe we have a couple that we could uh figure out and get one for you. Sure. >> We have we have one for merch. So, if it rains, I won't set up a merch table and you can use mine.

55
00:14:49.440 --> 00:15:07.440
>> Okay. >> Thank you. >> You're welcome. >> All right. Um, so quick question. We need to request um a police detail. Um, I honestly don't know. There could be

56
00:15:07.440 --> 00:15:25.279
200. There could be 500 people show up to this. Do we think that we need to request to shut down Green Street? June 97 a Saturday and the actual ceremonies at 1:00. >> So yeah, we got to get in there now.

57
00:15:25.279 --> 00:15:46.480
>> We didn't shut it down for the artfully. So yeah, >> and it's our own street. Yeah, that's an you think that's an easy >> I just have to get permission from the we may have to pay for >> do we have a meeting before then the 23rd >> and we can can we shut it down

58
00:15:46.480 --> 00:16:02.320
>> more than that and just permission or >> um >> we'd have to get several details >> it would just be up to the chiefs >> they would request no I mean >> I'll talk to them and see what they think >> it's a hight traffic area but people can

59
00:16:02.320 --> 00:16:18.160
go down to center and around if that down to library. You don't have all the way to summer. >> No, just to the library >> center to to main street. Yeah. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> I mean, is that something that you needed to have a vote on if if we were going to do it? Should we put a vote in

60
00:16:18.160 --> 00:16:33.759
place? That way if it's needed, at least you have it. >> If you want, you can put me on the agenda. >> Yeah. Uh, also a crazy request, but will we be able to close the will we still have the font

61
00:16:33.759 --> 00:16:50.399
school parking lot open just so people if people have wheelchairs they can use that parking lot to get across the street? >> Yeah, people will be able to park and stuff. They just will we probably will limit parking right next to the green itself. >> Okay. And as of as of right now, the font

62
00:16:50.399 --> 00:17:07.199
isn't being used, so you should be able to use it. As of right now, nothing's booked. >> Oh, okay. Thank you. >> Do you want me to make that motion, John? >> Just so you have the vote here. >> Vote here. Um >> to shut down. >> Why don't we um Yeah, a vote to request

63
00:17:07.199 --> 00:17:23.839
to the selectman. Sure. >> Yeah. So, I'd like to make a motion for a vote to for the selectman to shut down Green Street um pending police chiefs >> from the it will be from whatever that road is by the library.

64
00:17:23.839 --> 00:17:38.240
>> I was trying to remember that off the top of my head too. >> Second. >> Uh any discussion? >> From cross to Maine, Green Street from cross >> that runs from Maine to cross. >> Yeah. I didn't think it was center, but

65
00:17:38.240 --> 00:17:53.360
I Yeah. Okay. >> No, I always make those two up. All right. Um, so no discussion. Uh, all in favor? >> I I >> uh hold on, guys. Just to >> What's up, Will?

66
00:17:53.360 --> 00:18:09.120
>> Just to make a amendment to that motion. The street right by the library is considered cross street. Center Street comes out right next to All right. Thank you.

67
00:18:09.120 --> 00:18:34.799
>> Okay. I just want to make sure that you guys realize that that's Cross Street, not Zinder Street. >> Yes. Thank you. >> Okay. >> Um, as far as the Revolutionary War um reenactors, um, they've gone blank. I've reached out to them several times. They

68
00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:50.080
said they were going to try to find people. I've sent out two more emails and haven't heard yet. >> So, um, >> sorry, what's that for? >> The Revolutionary War, uh, reenactors >> for both the parade and for, um, like standby at the memorial.

69
00:18:50.080 --> 00:19:05.840
>> Do we want to try to get some other type of re I know it's not the same time period, but um, like the World War II reenactors in town or something. Do we want to have them or do we just want to just do the dedication? kind of feel like >> I don't think the time frame difference

70
00:19:05.840 --> 00:19:22.320
would make sense. Yeah. >> And it's specifically Yeah. No, that's what I think. Yeah, I think it's okay not to. >> Um I will try to see if there was another I know it's short term now, but see if there's another group um but this other group stopped communicating back. So >> that's stupid.

71
00:19:22.320 --> 00:19:39.200
>> I wonder if it's because it's so close to July 4th and the two >> they had initially said that they um they sometimes have difficulties getting >> people. So, um, that's how we left it and I reached out twice asking and nothing back. So, >> okay.

72
00:19:39.200 --> 00:19:56.080
>> Anybody have anything else for the proclamation day? >> Do we need to talk about live music for the proclamation day? We're working on it. >> Oh, that's right. We still didn't What do we want to do for the end? Do did we >> I think we talked about having a DJ after the pro after the service. Um, and

73
00:19:56.080 --> 00:20:12.000
we did I think that was I think that's a great idea. We just don't know who >> you have in mind or if not we up to the one that we use for the gala and that they're going to be using for the um oh home day if they're available. >> Yeah, that'd be great. Okay. >> Yeah. Do we need to preemptively vote to

74
00:20:12.000 --> 00:20:26.480
hire them and pay them? >> Uh we do have one more meeting. So, let me see if he's available. We can vote for that. >> Okay, that's fine. >> For the payment. >> Okay. And then we're talking to Pete Aldridge and Angel Vendetti to play in

75
00:20:26.480 --> 00:20:42.240
before from like 11 to 1. >> Yeah. >> Um and then we'll no music from during the ceremony and then the DJ can play from 2 to 3. >> Yeah. 2 to 4 whatever. Like Yeah. >> Yeah. Like if it >> I know everything's listing three but if

76
00:20:42.240 --> 00:20:58.159
it mingles a little bit later people leave then. >> Right. Who who was the live music before? Pete Eldridge said he was interested and um Tom Vendetti had already asked Angel, his daughter, who plays with Matt York, who's a local uh

77
00:20:58.159 --> 00:21:14.000
uh musician. Okay. >> And um so I have to I haven't talked to them myself. I just know back when we were going to do this as part of the art festival, he talked to her. She said yes. And then he went back after her to say, "Wait, they're going to do it now on Proclamation Day." Okay. >> And I have to follow up there. Um, I'm

78
00:21:14.000 --> 00:21:30.080
also wondering now that I say all that out loud, if it makes sense to bring in the DJ earlier because hiring a DJ just to play for an hour feels like a little like what if we had them play and then he took over like before, you know, they each did like a 30 minute set or something. I don't know.

79
00:21:30.080 --> 00:21:46.240
>> Yeah, I could check >> because he might also be like, I don't play for just an hour. I'm gonna I need to set up for a couple hours. So maybe he can set up at 11 start us off and then he takes a break while Pete plays and then Angel play. I don't know. >> Okay. >> I just It feels weird to have a a whole DJ come set up just for an hour.

80
00:21:46.240 --> 00:22:01.840
>> Yes. >> And sound system microphones. >> Yeah. We've got um we have uh we have a sound system. I just need the person who normally helps us with that in the church has been ill and so I haven't reached out to her to ask for her help.

81
00:22:01.840 --> 00:22:16.799
But we are our June 14th service is on the lawn with that sound system. So I'll know definitely by then and it should work. It does work. The DJ is available. He brings his own sound system and he has um access for microphones because we

82
00:22:16.799 --> 00:22:34.159
did have live instead. >> Yeah, let's do that. Thank you, John. Because my person I have not engaged her to help with this and I don't think I'd be able to. Okay. >> So, if if the DJ can provide the sound, that's so much better. Okay, good. >> Excuse me, John.

83
00:22:34.159 --> 00:22:49.600
>> Yes, Will. Go ahead. Also, if we do need microphones, I can probably borrow a couple more from Pack TV. >> Okay. >> Yeah, because I know we have a a case that we can carry microphones with. So,

84
00:22:49.600 --> 00:23:06.240
I can probably bring couple down from Pack TV with the camera equipment as well and couple extra c and couple extra cables. >> And if you guys can provide the speakers, that's best bet for me.

85
00:23:06.240 --> 00:23:21.919
What's that? A speaker? >> Yeah, like the speaker system that we use for Memorial Day. >> Yeah. Um, well, we're hoping the DJ will have that. And if not, then we'll be using that one that we use on Memorial Day. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> I have some updates about parade as

86
00:23:21.919 --> 00:23:37.919
well. And >> yeah, we're going to talk about that in a minute. >> Yep. >> Uh, anybody else have anything on the proclamation? Um, just for the flyer, I'm also going to add the merchandise to the bottom because I think if we can keep putting it out there about the merchandise with some pictures and stuff

87
00:23:37.919 --> 00:23:54.320
so I know what I sent you for a flyer that I'm going to post on Facebook and all that junk, but I'm going to add the merchandise also at the bottom and and the link and the QR code. >> That's it. >> Ashley, will you send that to me too? Because I haven't put the flyer on the Facebook event and I would like to.

It's It's no big deal. It's just a flyer, so it's fine. >> All right. >> All right. Well, what's up, buddy?

96
00:26:02.400 --> 00:26:19.039
detours details and everything like that. Um we're in the process. Letters are going out to local fire departments, local uh towns, the Kingston's in the immediate area from say Michigan down to New Jersey. We're not going to go any further than that just because of the short time and invite all of them um if

97
00:26:19.039 --> 00:26:34.640
any of them want to participate with a vehicle or march. Um we've got everything else going with inviting different people. Um we have our uh registration and waiver form up now. Um I don't know if Colleen talked to you or not. Either she or you can put that on

98
00:26:34.640 --> 00:26:50.640
the town site. >> It might be already. Y and then um >> if I don't know if everyone got a chance to take a look at the poster that was created. Um so we have the parade poster. So that will start going up and we can get that on Facebook. >> Um >> do I send this to Colleen? >> Well,

99
00:26:50.640 --> 00:27:07.440
>> that's the application to be in a float. >> I already have it and it should be on the website, I think. Oh, you mean Oh, that >> it's filled out. I want to submit. >> I want to submit. >> So, yes. So, everything everything's online and if anyone wants to do it on paper, you can bring it right to >> And where is she?

100
00:27:07.440 --> 00:27:23.440
>> She's uh the secretary at Title. >> Okay. Well, we did discuss actually know some people don't mind. So, nope, that's you can bring it right to her. Y >> perfect. Um, we are >> we have a five. Do you have a mailbox at town hall too?

101
00:27:23.440 --> 00:27:39.600

102
00:27:39.600 --> 00:27:56.640
going to um do a limit right now of 20 floats just to see where we're going to be at. Um and everything is going to be shut down as of June 30th. So, we have a month for people to register >> just so that we're aware of that. >> Okay. >> Um

103
00:27:56.640 --> 00:28:11.840
questions. >> Ready? >> Ready. So at the department head meeting it was mentioned you know any department that wants to do a float and they're like how do we do a they have no idea like is there like guidelines >> is there someplace they can go do you have like a resource that they can go

104
00:28:11.840 --> 00:28:27.840
like I have ideas but I didn't want to >> so what what we're going to tell the general public but it's going to be a little bit different because you should be able to use town vehicles. I know Sean wants to put a lot of vehicles in. So, if he's willing to, he could pull something. But you're the whoever's submitting it going to have to find

105
00:28:27.840 --> 00:28:44.640
their own trailer or flat end and then design whatever they want. They just have to let us know what the design is so we can approve it because there are some we kind of based it off of the fourth from the 4th of July. Yeah. >> So, there are some guidelines. Um, >> political stuff and things like that that we're not going to allow. But other than that, >> and on the application, right?

106
00:28:44.640 --> 00:29:01.039
>> Yes, it's it's on there. Yep. It's there's you have to um Yeah, because there's actually something you have to check off and sign everything. So, she may have you fill that out. >> Some more stuff. Yeah, because I didn't that's all I got. I >> Yeah. All right. So, um >> So, again, it's it's a um not just an application, but it's a waiver, too. So,

107
00:29:01.039 --> 00:29:16.159
you just sign up and agree to everything. So, >> maybe I should go see her then. >> Either way, >> you want me to Well, you go for it. I I'd rather you get to quickly. >> So, yeah. So, um, everyone else going to have to find their own vehicles and

108
00:29:16.159 --> 00:29:33.279
stuff like that, but town vehicles, um, are invite inviting every department to participate. So, any of the town agencies that want to do that if they want to check with Sean or whoever else has a vehicle that, um, if he's willing to pull some stuff and um, the different town groups can do floats.

109
00:29:33.279 --> 00:29:52.080
you agent. >> Love to, but >> am I jumping the gun if I ask you what the route is? Is that something you're going to discuss later? >> Nope. The we have the route. Um, and I'm just waiting for it's in the final permitting process from the state. Um, worst case scenario, we can shorten it

110
00:29:52.080 --> 00:30:08.080
up a little bit, but it it everything seems to be going good right now. So, it's going to be very similar to the Memorial Day parade, but just try not do the little side streets. So, we're going to start off at the elementary school on Hilltop. >> Go down Main Street. >> Um go up up Main Street towards Summer,

111
00:30:08.080 --> 00:30:22.320
but then we're going to turn stay on Main Street. >> Um go right up to Tourist Corner and then take a right at Tourist Corner and go right in front of the townhouse >> for people that don't don't know who Tourist Corner is. >> 27. >> Thank you. >> The corner right up here. >> Yeah. >> Oh, okay.

112
00:30:22.320 --> 00:30:38.399
>> Yes. Um sorry. Um Yes. So, L 27106 where that all intersects up here. Um it'll turn come right in front of the townhouse early bird. >> Yeah. Yeah. Okay. >> I didn't realize corners right past. >> Oh, really? Oh, >> that's a real towny thing. And it's going to end here.

113
00:30:38.399 --> 00:30:54.960
>> Uh so it'll end here. So any of the marching bands will um turn or any group that's marching will turn in here >> and we'll have buses. They'll get busted back to the start. Any floats vehicles will continue down summer street and they'll have police at the end that will help disperse them off. >> Okay.

114
00:30:54.960 --> 00:31:10.159
So, as far as far as the flyer's concerned, I know you mentioned Hilltop Avenue. Do you want me to mention elementary school? Because you just said it started. I just wanted that clarified because on the fly. >> Um, >> no, that's fine because you did say um entering up Brook Street, so we can disperse people from there.

115
00:31:10.159 --> 00:31:26.480
>> Okay. So, how it is is fine. You don't want any more specific. Okay. >> Yes. Yeah. Because I I don't want people showing up early and just parking at the elementary school because we're going to have different groups there to assign different >> Yeah. Elementary school is where people are who are in the parade are meeting up, right? Not

116
00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:44.399
>> Yeah. But we're going to have everyone come in through Brook Street so that we can like if you're a float, you're going to this parking lot. If you're imagine standing on this lot. So, >> 11 a.m. >> Yeah. Because that's why when we said the lineup location and times, it's enter in off Brook Street and then 9:00

117
00:31:44.399 --> 00:32:04.880
am the floats if we'll arrive and 10 a.m. the marchers arrive. That's still right. >> Yeah. Yeah. Okay. >> So, as of right now, um we possibly have two maybe three floats from the um Thanksgiving Day parade. There is a um a

118
00:32:04.880 --> 00:32:20.880
Mayflower float >> um that um is part of our history. So, we'll possibly use that one. Um the Thanksgiving parade committee is building a new float with the independence on it. Um, so that that will be in operate before it goes into

119
00:32:20.880 --> 00:32:37.600
the Thanksgiving. >> And there's another float. >> That's going to be cool. >> I think it will, will Yeah. >> Um, and then there's going to there's they have another one um for Native Americans, but we're um reaching out uh in discussions with the um I don't know

120
00:32:37.600 --> 00:32:53.200
if anyone's aware, but um the Wanoic Indians bought some land in Kingston, so there is now tribal land in Kingston. >> Route 80. Yes. So, we're talking with them to see if they want to participate. So, if they're going to participate, we probably won't use that float. Boom. Um, so, but we have those floats right now.

121
00:32:53.200 --> 00:33:08.640
We have um two bands committed. So, actually, if I could have somebody make a motion, please. Um, >> both bands charge $1,800. So, I need uh that 26 >> 36

122
00:33:08.640 --> 00:33:25.440
we spent commit $3,600 to paying the two marching bands for the parade. Second. Right. Any discussion? >> Excuse me. >> All in favor? >> Question. >> I >> question for the microphone. >> Um, what's that? Will

123
00:33:25.440 --> 00:33:41.039
>> uh which bands will be the agenda says man marching band which will be $2,000 just to >> Yeah, that changed. We we um did some negotiating with them and stuff so it changed.

124
00:33:41.039 --> 00:33:59.600
>> So it is man at 1,800. began in 1800 and the Taton City band at 1800. >> Oh yeah. >> And that's who we used for Memorial Day. >> Yeah, they were great. >> Can I just make it Can I just request to speak on the uh for update on virtual

125
00:33:59.600 --> 00:34:14.800
videoing that parade >> for the videography? >> Yes. >> Yeah. Go ahead. Uh, can I'm just wondering, can you guys possibly get me the height of the flood just so I can

126
00:34:14.800 --> 00:34:32.800
plan around that as well? >> Uh, we'll be able to um the beginning of July because we we won't know that until after um June 30th when everyone submits. >> But yeah, we can definitely do that. >> Okay. because I know it might be difficult as

127
00:34:32.800 --> 00:34:49.599
if I do use a like a telescoping armor that might be difficult. >> Okay. >> Yeah. But also, can you guys get me the location of a possible setup for the town where I can set up? I don't know

128
00:34:49.599 --> 00:35:07.040
where I can set up. >> I thought we had talked about right out here on the on the uh lawn for the town hall. Right. similar to what? >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Okay. Because my my question is I know you guys might be having a bleacher

129
00:35:07.040 --> 00:35:21.839
setup. Will will that be in front of the town hall? >> I don't know if we're going to do that. We we're still we're going to decide that at our next meeting. Um but it looks like we're probably not going to have a bleacher set up. >> Okay.

130
00:35:21.839 --> 00:35:38.160
At the least, can we try to put the the bands pulling in the second entrance on the side of >> We'll have all the marching bands pulling the second entrance so that if anyone's on the front lawn, they can see the whole parade before it disperses.

131
00:35:38.160 --> 00:35:54.160
>> Okay. >> Okay. >> Yep. And >> while we're also talking about bands, Silverlake obviously reached out. I put in quite a few phone calls. Um Kelly got back to me today. she should have an answer about Silver Lake as far as their marching band. I mentioned obviously

132
00:35:54.160 --> 00:36:11.119
it's during the summer. Um but she said by the end of Friday or at the most next week by Tuesday she'll have an answer and she's going to see how many kids will be able to do it and then she'll send back an email >> uh Kelly Dasqua

133
00:36:11.119 --> 00:36:27.520
>> Pasqua does amendment. >> Okay. And then um uh Erin, Erin's the main secretary who connected us together. So Erin Lynon um so and then she CCed Greg on there as well. Um Greg does more of

134
00:36:27.520 --> 00:36:44.720
the band, but we're all on the same page. We're just waiting on an answer back. >> Okay. >> Yep. >> Okay. So, I'm just still planning to have will will the bands stop in front of

135
00:36:44.720 --> 00:37:00.800
town hall to play a bit and then continue? Um, not sure. Um, we haven't gotten to that point yet, but um, let's see. Our next, if you're around, will our next meeting

136
00:37:00.800 --> 00:37:15.839
for the parade is on the 15th at the fire station at 4:15. Um, so why don't we save the planning for that for the um working group if you if you're able to make that. Okay. >> Okay. So, >> can somebody contact me with the

137
00:37:15.839 --> 00:37:32.000
information as I might need to figure out a ride for the 15th? >> Yes, I can get I can send an email to you. >> Okay. I just don't know if it is a violation of open meeting. So, >> yeah. Well, that's the working group. So, we don't have to um >> it's not

138
00:37:32.000 --> 00:37:49.280
>> we don't need to we're not violating those laws. >> Okay. I just wanted to make sure. Thanks for getting the confirmation. >> Thank you. All right. So, moving on. Let's see. Um I think that's pretty much all we have. >> Question on the patch. Did we get a new

139
00:37:49.280 --> 00:38:04.320
invoice in regards to the patch and the um sales tax? Uh she was going >> she knew she knew about she answered about it but I don't think we got one yet. No. >> Okay. Well, >> she was going to put in an email to John

140
00:38:04.320 --> 00:38:19.839
Bartlett which is how I how I refrained it and then I had wrote or excuse me I had left a phone call for Pam that I would call her tomorrow morning and um I would be like politely be like haven't seen it. Just checking. Did you send it?

141
00:38:19.839 --> 00:38:35.520
And she'll probably I I politely I mean politely. I mean, I know she's but it's like by now by now um as of Mon, excuse me, last week on Thursday. >> Yeah. Oh, she's wonderful on last week. But she said she's got a lot of orders.

142
00:38:35.520 --> 00:38:50.720
So, she said last week on Thursday she was going to get us a proof and I think she just got tied up. So, I was, you know, figured give her some leeway and then tomorrow I put in a phone call saying, "Can I have the proof and can I have the minus sales tax?" >> Yeah, >> I know. But also on the um it's not for

143
00:38:50.720 --> 00:39:07.280
the Kingston 300 the order. So, can she change that 300 versus girl? Was it Girl Scouts? >> I think she was doing that. >> She already Yeah, that was already mentioned that it was transferred over to Kingston 300. >> Yeah. Yep. >> Thank you. >> Not a problem

144
00:39:07.280 --> 00:39:23.440
>> because that was one that was one of the things as awkward as this might make it is um Girl Scouts, I don't know, as far as Boy Scouts, I did send out an email to them as well. Um obviously you guys are foot in the bill. However, if there's some contribution that the service unit or whatnot can make, I know

145
00:39:23.440 --> 00:39:39.440
this is awkward turtle, but if we can give something because money just doesn't appear out of thin air. So, if there's something we can do on our end, like if we need 60 patches, we could come to terms to give you some money for those patches, >> right? >> So, okay. >> Not to not to be the elephant in the room, but we want to give something for

146
00:39:39.440 --> 00:39:54.880
it. We just don't, you know. >> Yeah, >> that's great. That's very kind. >> Thank you. >> Um, hold on a second. Well, um Ashley, just to go backwards a little bit, um >> with food trucks, had you heard from um

147
00:39:54.880 --> 00:40:11.119
someone had heard about a couple of the dessert trucks. Was that you? >> Um there was a Nothing specific cuz my list, the ones you gave me, all gave me the X, so they were already booked. >> I don't know why that date so popular. They just said catering or whatever.

148
00:40:11.119 --> 00:40:26.160
Nothing specific, but it's just the weirdest day. Um, there was one dessert truck, there was a taco truck, and another that I was given reference to this morning, and I put in a phone call, and I'm gonna recall them tomorrow. So, I haven't heard anything specific yet,

149
00:40:26.160 --> 00:40:42.800
but um I was curious if the vendor list I mean, it's supposed to go to all Massachusetts. Did you guys get any hits? >> Like two or three stuff, >> okay. >> Okay. >> But I can reach out. Do we want some like beyond food like candy, ice cream,

150
00:40:42.800 --> 00:40:58.560
whatever trucks or >> Well, uh before you got on, we did vote. Um we're doing a shaved ice truck. Um >> shaved ice. Okay. >> We're going to um we're going to foot the bill for that just to give out to everybody. Um we voted on that. Um so everything else will come in and just do their normal business.

151
00:40:58.560 --> 00:41:14.079
>> Yeah. >> So the shaved ice is complimentary for Captain Obvious. >> Okay. >> Yeah. And while we're back on proclamation day, very very briefly, I've got eight vendors paid, but we have room for up to like 25. So if you know anyone who wants to owns a table,

152
00:41:14.079 --> 00:41:29.040
>> 50 bucks. >> Okay. >> So there's a number of more people have reached out, but only eight have paid thus far. And the due date to pay is like June 20th. So if you know anyone who might want to sell whatever they make at a table, have them email me. >> Okay.

153
00:41:29.040 --> 00:41:45.040
>> Eight vendors paid. Um, and we have room for like 20 I mean up to 25ish. So eight's pretty good, but I would like us to get up to closer to 15 to 20. So yeah, I'm going to keep spreading that flyer online. But if you know, you all know people who want to >> buy the table.

154
00:41:45.040 --> 00:42:00.319
>> Deadline was what? >> June 20th to pay, but the sooner they email me, the better just so they can get their information. >> Okay. Once once the flyer I have goes to Jana and she proves and goes um if you can give me critiques or whatever you need on it cuz I did make sure to put

155
00:42:00.319 --> 00:42:16.480
your email on there as far as the vendor side and then I was going to spam it between Marshfield da da da da da. So I mean >> great. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's awesome. >> Okay. >> Thank you. >> Um and just on a side note too for the proclamation day and stuff um there is

156
00:42:16.480 --> 00:42:32.800
an Eagle Scout from town a scout that's working on his Eagle project. So, he's going to um clean the um old burial ground. >> Um once we put the um the stone in, he's going to do a small garden around it and a small walkway in front.

157
00:42:32.800 --> 00:42:48.240
>> He's also going to approach the select about putting like a bench in the far part of the cemetery um section. So, um there is an eagle scout work for his eagle that's doing some of that project. >> Awesome. >> So, um Sean Turner was asking about Orio ground if we were using that at all. Is

158
00:42:48.240 --> 00:43:03.440
that where the memorial's going? No, the memorial is going on the town green. >> Okay. Because he was asking, does he need to mow beforeation day? The old burial ground. >> Yeah, I I'll touch base. I know they mow the day. >> They just mowed, right? >> Either today or yesterday. I can't remember. Yes. >> Well, it's two different

159
00:43:03.440 --> 00:43:18.720
>> Sean only they only do the old burial grounds and then the contractor does the green. >> The green, >> right? So, it's like two. >> Yeah. So, we can reach out to see if we can get done that Thursday and Friday. Okay. >> Y >> Great Eagle project. >> Yes. Very good. All

160
00:43:18.720 --> 00:43:33.920
right. So, anybody have anything else for the parade? >> I do. >> What's that? Well, >> just to confirm, the meeting is in the working group meeting in June 15th. >> June 15th at 4:15 at the fire station. Yep.

161
00:43:33.920 --> 00:43:50.240
>> Okay. Also, is there anybody planning to maybe plant new grass in the old burial ground? >> Um, I don't that's not for this meeting. I'm not sure. Um, okay. We don't take care of that. We don't we

162
00:43:50.240 --> 00:44:06.560
>> Okay. >> All right. So, nothing else on the parade. Uh, we'll move on to old home day. Um, I know Mike wasn't able to be here. Um, Joe, do you have anything or I know >> you Mike, myself, and Joseph are um we're we're just in the midst of planning

163
00:44:06.560 --> 00:44:23.359
everything now. Um, I know Mike has reached out to some of some vendors waiting to hear back on stuff. Um, so that's where we're at. We, you know, we've kind of got our idea for different games and

164
00:44:23.359 --> 00:44:40.240
whatnot and other other things that we're not ready to put out there just yet until until we know for sure because it it should be fun, but we don't want to disappoint either. Yeah. >> Um, we were talking about like one of them, I don't know if you ever seen it, they

165
00:44:40.240 --> 00:44:55.520
do a golf ball drop and that used to bring they bring a helicopter in. We're thinking about maybe the fire truck drops it. >> Um, that's one one thing, you know, that's usually a lot of fun. We we did that in um actually Andrea had done it in Whitman for baseball years ago. The

166
00:44:55.520 --> 00:45:11.760
helicopter came in, flew around at some time flying for like 20 minutes. they put a >> right >> a stick in the ground and let the balls go on the closest one two wins or if you want to do 10 different winners, it's the closest 10 to a win. >> So, it was a lot of fun. >> So, we're thinking with the with the fire truck, you know, that way it brings

167
00:45:11.760 --> 00:45:26.880
the Kingston part in. >> Um, that's one of them. And we have what's known as the Meadow Muffin. >> Um, you set up a grid of about a 100 squares. People purchase a ticket per each square and you have a cow come in.

168
00:45:26.880 --> 00:45:42.800
You make sure it's wellfed and it's business um and it puts it down. So, those are a couple of them. Um we're working on, you know, different vendors obviously have to make sure that it's approved by the town that we can do this to. Um

169
00:45:42.800 --> 00:45:59.119
>> but yeah, those are all the different things that we're working on. The food trucks obviously. >> Okay. >> I know Mike has spoke to 42nd Brewery. >> Yep. >> Um so, yeah, we're we're in the process. >> Okay. >> And I know we'll be reaching out for help eventually. It's just trying to get

170
00:45:59.119 --> 00:46:15.280
all the ideas on paper and at least start reaching out to make sure we have things. >> Um along with that, um for the fireworks, um I did put out, um three requests for quotes. Um the Paratnico is a company that I had originally talked

171
00:46:15.280 --> 00:46:31.359
to. They gave us some ideas. Um and then I sent it out to two other uh companies, uh Central Main and then American Something Fireworks. They have them in the emails if anyone wants to know. Um they both sent um it was early May. They both sent questions. I replied questions

172
00:46:31.359 --> 00:46:48.000
the answers back to them um on May 13th. So that was three weeks ago. I have not heard from um either of them since. >> So um I think with the 3-week time period, we can go ahead and make a decision. Um if everyone likes what they've seen with um the pyro technical,

173
00:46:48.000 --> 00:47:03.599
if anyone wants to take a look at it, it's um 20 to 22 minutes. There's over 43,000 shots. Um, it is it includes $10 million of general liability insurance, their trained technicians, all transportation costs, stuff. We have to

174
00:47:03.599 --> 00:47:18.640
pay for the details for the fire department to be on scene. Whenever the fireworks arrive on scene, that has to be the fire department there all the way through the shooting. They go and confirm everything was shot. If anything wasn't shot out, the fire department still has to stay there until they dispose of the leftover shots. Um and

175
00:47:18.640 --> 00:47:33.760
then um all the other permits and stuff other than the fire department permit which I believe um speaking of the chief is going to wave. >> So Oh, good. >> Yeah. Um I just have to double check on that. Um and then it will also be choreographed to music. So with that um

176
00:47:33.760 --> 00:47:50.079
the electronic fireworks production is 32,500 and to have it scripted to music which will work with um you guys getting Steve to do the DJ. for the work with Steve. That will be another uh $2,500 for a total of $3500 uh $35,000

177
00:47:50.079 --> 00:48:05.839
for the fireworks. Um as long as we get approval at town meeting, we have $40,000 request for the Samson fund. So that will cover um that is for the fireworks that will cover the fireworks and the fire department detail. So, um,

178
00:48:05.839 --> 00:48:21.440
if there's someone, um, if anyone has any discussion on this or not, if someone wants to make a motion that we use, uh, Pyro Techchnico, um, for the amount of $35,000, >> I move we hire Pyro Pyro Technico. >> Yes.

179
00:48:21.440 --> 00:48:37.280
>> For $35,000 >> for the fireworks for old home day. >> Okay. Is there a second? >> Second. >> And any discussion? >> Question. >> Uh, hold on, Bill. Well, we're in the middle of a motion. >> Oh, sorry. >> Yep. >> My bad.

180
00:48:37.280 --> 00:48:53.359
>> Any discussion? Hearing none. All in favor? >> I >> All right. Thank you, everyone. >> Who was a second on that? >> Fireworks. >> Will, what do you have? >> Uh, I'm just wondering about the old

181
00:48:53.359 --> 00:49:08.960
home day fireworks celebration. >> Yep. >> Would you guys like that recorded as well? >> Uh, possibly. Yes. >> Yeah. I believe >> you can be near the DJ so you can get the music to go along with it. >> I can I can probably bring a Wait, can

182
00:49:08.960 --> 00:49:24.160
you guys hear me? Yes, you can. >> Yeah. >> So, sorry my m my friend just dispared in the corn on my screen, but I can probably bring a cable in and hook that directly if he is okay with it to his soundboard

183
00:49:24.160 --> 00:49:40.880
to play the the music over the camera as well. >> Okay. As we get closer to that, we can talk about that more and we'll have you talk with the DJ. Okay. >> Okay. Also, if if the Samson fund doesn't get passed

184
00:49:40.880 --> 00:49:57.359
at town meeting this weekend, what will the what will be the issues that we may come across with? >> Uh, we do still we do still have some money right now. We just will have to do more fundraising um after that. That's all. So, we'll we'll discuss that at our

185
00:49:57.359 --> 00:50:11.920
next meeting if it comes to that. >> Let's make sure you go to town meeting and vote for it. >> Okay. I I would be there because I'm running the lights. I should be there about 8 a.m. Um Okay. So, anybody else have anything with old home day?

186
00:50:11.920 --> 00:50:28.079
>> Hearing nothing. Um anything new on the house courts? >> Uh our graphic designer, Lisa Turkot, is back from Florida. We're going to meet after the 4th of July and start the ticket booklet. So that will be great. And um we're working at the Bradford

187
00:50:28.079 --> 00:50:43.119
Gardens. 26 Garden Club members have been there and it has been at least 175 hours that we've clocked in. I'm applying for a grant so they need that information. Um the only problem is the

188
00:50:43.119 --> 00:50:59.680
fencing is really rotten and ratty looking, but the people that the historical society want to use to replace the fencing can't do it till the fall. So whether it will be done before the house tour or not, I don't know. I hope so, but I don't know. Um, yeah. So,

189
00:50:59.680 --> 00:51:16.160
we're we're moving along. We're okay. Um, I wanted to know when I can ask people what house any of you want to be at as dosens. Do any of you know where you want to be? Do you care? >> Best one. >> The best one. >> Of course.

190
00:51:16.160 --> 00:51:32.880
>> Well, I want the second best one. >> I'm going to need I I'm going to need so many people. So, um, if you all agree, if it doesn't matter to you one way or the other, we'll just let you know. But I want you to be happy where you are. >> And this is on Sunday, October 4th. >> Yes.

191
00:51:32.880 --> 00:51:49.119
>> Okay. What time does it start? >> It starts at 11, which is in the middle of your service. >> I'll be preaching at that. >> But there are two there are two um time slots for >> I'll just do an afternoon. Yeah. So, sign me up for an afternoon slot, obviously. Yeah.

192
00:51:49.119 --> 00:52:04.880
>> Thank you. If you want to. >> Of course, I do. >> Great. Great. I would love to have some of you there, but I do I don't want to make you feel obligated, but I would um I'm going to need a ton of people. So, >> yeah, the cemetery draws and Tom can go walking back back and forth across the window.

193
00:52:04.880 --> 00:52:19.680
>> Maybe I'll just have Tom preach that day and be hanging out in the house. >> Yeah, >> there are some there are some wonderful houses. I'm very excited about it, but I like I said, I just don't want you to be in a house that you're not happy because they're

194
00:52:19.680 --> 00:52:36.319
>> great ones and some not so great on >> greatest. They're all historic, but I I >> We'll see how the last tour is at what time. Well, we're going to start at 11:00 and um I'm hoping that people

195
00:52:36.319 --> 00:52:52.319
won't start the tour till 11:30, but I really think we're going to have to start at 11:00 because I've Tom and John at the cemetery will be at 3:30. >> So, it'll be 11:30 to 3:30 was my initial plan, but um now that we've got

196
00:52:52.319 --> 00:53:07.680
so many sites, >> right, >> we may be starting like at 11. I don't know how homeowners feel about that. So, I I we we'll start talking about it more seriously once we get the booklet going. Um, and I told you I'm putting signs all over town. That's okay. Right in the

197
00:53:07.680 --> 00:53:22.800
ground. >> We had talked about doing lawn signs that were just uh kind of generic Kingston 300 and then get stickers >> for house tours that maybe on one side

198
00:53:22.800 --> 00:53:39.359
we just say like a Kingston 300th event and I don't know. >> Let's work on that. I think my my kids are the techie people in my household and they said that they could set up a specific phone number with information recorded or something so they would call

199
00:53:39.359 --> 00:53:54.640
that number and get the information they need. I don't I don't know. I have to give them because they don't want me using my phone obviously or my email. >> So if they want something that's not you know they said they'd set it up and then take it down afterwards. So maybe is

200
00:53:54.640 --> 00:54:09.839
that the way to do it? creating an email though. Just check with Jan first. Don't create an email >> or a phone number. Awesome. I hadn't >> done that before. Yeah. Just touch base with me. >> Okay. Yeah. I don't care what we do, but I want people to know about it and I

201
00:54:09.839 --> 00:54:24.720
don't think a lot of people even know about it. So, if those >> land signs, whatever you call them, yard signs go in all over the place, they'll know about it. And then if they choose not to participate, that's fine. >> But I do feel strongly, >> you know. >> Yeah. Are you going to have someone

202
00:54:24.720 --> 00:54:40.559
design a flyer? Is the Is your graphic designer going to flyer too? >> Probably. >> That can be posted around town and put on social media and stuff. Wonderful. I'm sure. I'm sure. >> Good. >> He also does the garden club booklet which is like 30 pages. So, you know, she's going to be a little hardressed,

203
00:54:40.559 --> 00:54:56.160
but I'm gonna get as much as I can. >> We also How How available is Danielle to do? >> Danielle did the brochure for the art show and she did a fantastic job. >> Okay. >> Yeah. If you need extra hands, volunteer or she's your boy, but you know,

204
00:54:56.160 --> 00:55:12.000
>> but that may be great if they >> and she cranked it out so fastly those people know how to do it. >> I know to them they're like, "Sure, it's fine." You're like, "Oh my god, it's taking me to I so respect that knowledge, but um that's great to know there is someone

205
00:55:12.000 --> 00:55:27.520
else I can rely on." Lisa is fabulous and she she does so many things for the Garden Club. So, she did want to do this, but and she said after the fourth she would get back to me. So, yeah, I think we're in good shape and I know the money's coming in for advertising and um

206
00:55:27.520 --> 00:55:44.000
I don't know how many you've gotten. >> No, I don't. >> Yeah, it's fine. It's fine. I'm I'm thinking that whatever we've collected for advertising will cover all of our costs. Printing of the booklet and uh advertising and the signs and Yeah. So,

207
00:55:44.000 --> 00:56:01.599
I think we're good. as far as as far as volunteers because I don't want you to get a bunch of emails up the wazoo. Where or how soon do you want us to start asking people to volunteer to help out? Obviously, we've got a little bit of time with it being in October, but um I just obviously if

208
00:56:01.599 --> 00:56:18.079
you and Jan end up connecting with this email, okay, that's where we'll send them. I just didn't know if you had a point of where you wanted volunteers to start reaching out. >> No, I do know a lot of people have expressed interest in being a dosent. So, I want to get started on the listing for each house so I know how many I need

209
00:56:18.079 --> 00:56:33.760
and then we can put it out to the public or however you I you know I I'm talking I'm going to need like about 60 people I would say with 10 houses and two shifts at each house. So, yeah. But anyway, we'll see. I I'll talk to my people. We'll figure

210
00:56:33.760 --> 00:56:49.839
>> you you can just get all the volunteers from the art show and then just add more. >> That'd be nice. I got that covered. So, that'd be nice. But I think there are a lot of people from church who have expressed interest who want to be dosent and it's a two-hour shift and they'll get a free ticket to the house tour. So

211
00:56:49.839 --> 00:57:07.119
that's an incentive to do it. The tickets are going to be $30. So um you know that's an incentive which by the way with the tours that are going on in other communities $30 is steal. >> They're charging 75 in Dubberry for the uh Hydrangeanger Festival and uh other

212
00:57:07.119 --> 00:57:22.559
communities. So yeah, so we shouldn't have any anyone complaining that the cost is prohibitive. >> Yeah. >> And they'll get a discount if they're a senior or if it's a family. So yeah. >> Yeah. That's lovely. That's great. >> Okay. So we'll let you get set up and then once once you and Jan are all set

213
00:57:22.559 --> 00:57:38.640
up with who you want us to contact, then we'll I'll I'll take the charge and start because I don't want people to email you and you get a bunch of spam. >> I don't mind. I don't mind. >> Well, no. No, because I need so many. I would rather have more than enough. more than enough and not enough at all. So,

214
00:57:38.640 --> 00:57:53.760
it's fine. It's fine. >> The emails don't bother me at all. >> That's great. Thank you, Ashley, for being helpful. >> Yeah, you're fine. Is your email listed somewhere that I could snag it or would I be getting that from Jan? >> I gave it to you before. I'll give it to you right now.

215
00:57:53.760 --> 00:58:10.000
>> No, no, no, no, not on video. I'm good. We're good. >> Right. Yeah. No, >> I'm pretty sure I have it, but we'll >> I think you do. I think you do. >> I know. I put you both on the same email over at least 17,000. >> I think I have it. >> So if you search your email, I bet

216
00:58:10.000 --> 00:58:26.720
you'll find it. I'm sure. >> Oh, I have everything saved. We're good. >> Thank you, Ashley. Thank you very much. >> So that's all you have with the old home? >> Yeah, that's it. Scavenger. >> So marketing promotion. I know that there's been some PSAs that have been put out through the local scene and WATD

217
00:58:26.720 --> 00:58:44.079
for the proclamation day and the um vendor fair. So, we'll be doing those shortly for the parade as well. >> Great. >> Anything else on marketing? >> And anybody have any other bills that they need to pay? >> I have a question about

218
00:58:44.079 --> 00:58:59.119
>> Hold on. >> I don't have any. No. >> Okay. >> What's your question, Will? Uh, so do you know if the proclamation has a

219
00:58:59.119 --> 00:59:15.839
upcoming working group? >> Uh, no. That's kind of we're doing that all as a committee really. There's no working group for that. >> Okay. >> So, we just discussed it here. >> Okay. June 15th is at 4:15 the working

220
00:59:15.839 --> 00:59:32.240
group for the parade. Okay. Thank >> All right. So, no other bills. Um, I don't have any new business. Anybody have anything on the new business? >> No. All right. Hearing anything? >> My only question, my last thing, I promise. Um, if the patches come in and

221
00:59:32.240 --> 00:59:48.240
the sale taxes are removed, it's a $1.75. I just wanted to know when Dragon uh Firefly puts it on her site how much we want to charge. We don't have to decide today, but I just want that nailed so when we start to market the parade and the patch and whatever, like the that we're ready to go with the

222
00:59:48.240 --> 01:00:04.160
price. How much are patches normally? She >> said 175 cost. How much do you usually buy them for? >> Girl Scouts. Girl Scouts could do them for like 350 or three. >> Yeah, let's do three.

223
01:00:04.160 --> 01:00:19.280
>> Three. Three sounds good. >> I know the police were selling theirs, I think, for five and it slowed down. >> Oh, it might be more. That was more. Sorry. >> Five then. >> Good. >> Yeah, five's still very affordable. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. I like five.

224
01:00:19.280 --> 01:00:36.240
>> Is Is that reason? I know a lot of the scouts are going to be buying them. You think that is five reasonable for them? >> Uh for scouts. >> Yeah. But do you think we should go a little less? >> Well, she just said 3 to 350 is what they usually buy. >> Oh, is that what they usually Oh, I'm sorry. >> So, so if it's like a regular Badger

225
01:00:36.240 --> 01:00:53.280
patch, it could be $2. But then like World Thinking Day, we had to do 350 when it's a designer one. Um, if it makes it easy, not that I want to turn the tables. We could do one price for scouts and one price for the website. It's whatever you guys want to do. I'm gonna I'm gonna follow you.

226
01:00:53.280 --> 01:01:08.480
>> How about scouts three, everyone else five. >> I thought three because it's 300. >> Do we want to stick with three? Because it it's it's almost double with that. >> This was more a scout thing. >> Then we have to remember two different prices. >> Yeah. Okay.

227
01:01:08.480 --> 01:01:24.799
If you if you stick with three, you're making a $1.25 profit, which >> yeah, I gave the numbers earlier, but that's up to you guys. >> Yeah. So, um, is there a motion for that? >> I move we set the price for our patches at $3 for everybody.

228
01:01:24.799 --> 01:01:40.240
>> Second. >> Second. All right. Any discussion? All in favor? >> All right. Ash, you can go ahead and tell it $3. Thank you. >> Okay, that's it. Thank you. Thank you. >> Anything else on the new business?

229
01:01:40.240 --> 01:01:54.520
>> If not, does someone have a motion to adjurnn? >> I make a motion we adjourn at 6:18. >> Second. Second. All >> in favor? I. >> Thank you everyone. >> Thank you.
