9

14
00:03:43.040 --> 00:03:58.959
Do didn't we have an amount? Do you remember the amount >> we voted on? I mean to voted on the amount I don't remember >> for what to purchase merchandise. Was it $5,000 or was it more? >> I have no idea. >> I'll check on it and I'll let you know. >> Okay.

15
00:03:58.959 --> 00:04:16.720
>> So, I have the um the list ready. We have three different towels. I couldn't get my printer to work, so I couldn't bring you things. Yeah, >> it was a b like a a red towel like the blanket with an anchor logo um on the edge just a small anchor logo and then

16
00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:34.080
there was a navy and white striped towel also with an anchor logo and a yellow and white striped towel with the anchor. Uh they were um the same the same brand as the blanket. So really nice nice brand. I didn't obviously feel it but um

17
00:04:34.080 --> 00:04:49.040
it seems like it's a good brand. And they were 38 each. And um I've had two suggestions. One to price them at 50 and one at 45. I was thinking more of the 45. >> Yeah. A lot to

18
00:04:49.040 --> 00:05:04.800
>> it is a lot per towel. >> But you do 40. No. >> 42. >> I'm like just making change would be a pain. >> How much? >> 50. 40 a piece. You charge 50.

19
00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:22.560
>> If you're charging 50 for the blankets, you can't charge, >> right? >> Double check. They They're either 40 or 45. I can't remember. >> Uh yeah. Okay. >> Yeah, because the blankets are really >> How big are they? >> They're beach towels. So that's big.

20
00:05:22.560 --> 00:05:37.919
>> At least that's how I see it. I mean, I would pay 50 for a for a blanket, but I don't think >> we charge 50 for a blanket. >> 50? Yeah. That's That's very reasonable. >> And 45 for the tote bag,

21
00:05:37.919 --> 00:05:56.560
the large one. So, >> how many can you order just to kind of see how they go? >> We were thinking of doing 10 each. >> Do we need three to nine? >> Yeah. Can you just do two? Do you have

22
00:05:56.560 --> 00:06:10.560
to have >> No, no, we could do that. Yeah. Are you getting are you getting design >> or is it all the same design? >> It's the same. >> So there's no like additional design fees for each.

23
00:06:10.560 --> 00:06:28.520
>> Well, if you're going to get only two, like can you do five of each? You know, >> see how they go. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> And if they go well and the certain colors go well, we'll can get more. >> Okay. And at what price point?

24
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:46.080
We still haven't decided on the price point. >> No, they're 38. So, we have to >> can't >> One was the one was 38 and one was like 35 34 the solid one. So,

25
00:06:46.080 --> 00:07:02.800
I mean I I I like the idea of charging like a 42 or 43 but then making the dollar change. Just thinking of you guys at like music night or whatever where it's right, you know. >> I mean >> I mean it can be done. It's just an added layer.

26
00:07:02.800 --> 00:07:18.880
>> Well, can we change it? You know, if we >> That's true. Yeah. >> Can we change Can we do 42 or 43 and then if it's just too much, we can bump it up to 45? >> Yeah. Okay. So, >> you want me to move that we make the

27
00:07:18.880 --> 00:07:35.280
price point $42? >> Yeah, we'll go with that. Just >> so each towel we make four. >> Yeah. If if the if the solid color one sells better than the striped, it's like slightly cheaper, then we'll just reup

28
00:07:35.280 --> 00:07:52.240
on that one >> and maybe get a different color. >> Do you think >> or maybe I should do that now and just get two solid ones? >> I mean, do people care if it's striped or not? >> I don't think so. >> I'm a I would go for strip,

29
00:07:52.240 --> 00:08:05.759
>> I guess. I'm gonna keep what I pay $5 more, >> right? I'll keep the two for now, you know, >> and see how they go. >> Yeah. Okay. So, two styles. >> Yeah.

30
00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:24.800
>> Order two styles charge up $42. >> How long does it take for the >> I know, right? >> I don't know. Yeah. >> Well, they're okay with it. They're the ones that sell the most. So, >> it's really quick. It all depends on how fast you can get the product in. >> Mhm.

31
00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:40.399
>> Right. Can I order the blankets for the house tour? >> Yeah. >> Yep. >> Um, we wanted navy blue blankets and um well, I'll have to tell you the number. I would say seven, but I'm not positive.

32
00:08:40.399 --> 00:08:56.399
>> We have some, too. And we still have some. So, if you We'll go with seven and then >> Yeah. I'll let you know for sure. >> Yeah. Yeah. I think that's a lovely thing to give the >> Yeah, that's their home.

00:09:17.519 --> 00:09:34.320
>> Okay. Um, we have Paul is doing next week >> and then I'll pro I probably do the one after that. >> Okay. >> Um, what about the I'll probably end up

doing the parade as well, right? I don't know who's >> um well >> somewhere in the >> is there do we want to do merchandise at the parade because it's really there's no >> I mean if we did I'd say probably the town green or something like that. That's probably going to be the busiest spot, but um >> we can get you a shopping cart and you

36
00:09:50.000 --> 00:10:04.880

51
00:14:02.399 --> 00:14:17.760
>> Sorry. Go ahead. >> Oh, that's okay. Um so the parade um the next Saturday, not this Saturday, the 25th. um starts at 11:00 a.m. We're asking the floats to get there at um uh 9:00 a.m. and then uh everyone else

52
00:14:17.760 --> 00:14:34.480
marching 10:00 a.m. >> Um so if anybody in the committee is able to help out um if you can get there about 7:30 in the morning. Uh what's going to happen is we're having people come in via uh Second Brook Street and then we'll have lined up there and disperse people out to uh different

53
00:14:34.480 --> 00:14:53.440
areas of the parking lots between the intermediate school and the elementary school and Vineyard Church >> from I'll be happy to help you. I'll be there anyway. I float. So I don't know if you want my help 7:30 if you can. Um and then um

54
00:14:53.440 --> 00:15:09.120
>> the floats >> the floats are going to come at 9:00 and then um at 10 >> some of the vehicles will be there at 10, but marchers will be there by 10 as well. >> And where should we meet exactly? >> Um anywhere down by the uh elementary or intermediate school? Y

55
00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:25.519
>> you want to say specifically like the you setting up a water station? You want to meet have us all there so you can sign? >> Um well, we're probably going to have a couple. So uh is going to talk about that in a minute, too. Um, so we do have um members of the CERT team that are going to be doing water stations. We've

56
00:15:25.519 --> 00:15:42.240
actually expanded it. We have a um an incident action plan with the police department. Um so we're going to have uh four water uh sorry five water stations. We'll have one at the beginning, then we'll have one in the area of Landing Road, one in the area of Mayflower Church, one by St. Joseph's Church, and

57
00:15:42.240 --> 00:15:59.920
then one at the end. Um, the Vineyard Church on Hilltop A is allowing us to use their parking lot like they're doing for the Memorial Day parade. They're also opening up their building um for bathrooms, but they're going to serve coffee, um, drinks, and bagels that morning.

58
00:15:59.920 --> 00:16:16.000
>> Very nice of them. Yes. Um, so what I was thinking is to do our water station maybe a little bit over in between the intermediate and the um elementary school um by that little playground there just so that we can have um two different areas with uh refreshments in

59
00:16:16.000 --> 00:16:32.000
the morning there to start off. >> Did you say this was a mile and a half? >> It's two mile. It's like 1.8. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> Well, I got to tell my members and you know some of them might might not be able to make it. That's why. >> Yeah. And if they want to ride in

60
00:16:32.000 --> 00:16:48.000
vehicles, that's fine, too. Yeah. >> Like they like they don't have to march. And the same with the committee if um >> I think I'll be good. Yeah. >> I think we'll we'll need a few people probably just to kind of monitor the parade and and I'll I'll be doing that. I'll be on probably one of the vehicles.

61
00:16:48.000 --> 00:17:04.799
Um but then anybody else if you want to be um in a vehicle or if you want to be um we have a couple golf carts coming. There's a sixperson golf cart, a fourperson golf cart and a twoerson golf cart. So we're offering the six person to the selectman for right now. The

62
00:17:04.799 --> 00:17:20.640
selectman town manager. >> I know Scott also offered to see if the selectman want to go in his Jeep. >> Perfect. If they want to do that, but Yep. >> I'll let you know what they officially decide, but it'll all be there. So if not then we'll have those other ones if there are any veterans or anybody that

63
00:17:20.640 --> 00:17:36.320
wants to do anything. So we have a few of those um available. Uh we will also we also have um three John Deere they call them gators. They're like small um IVs but they're we're I believe we're going to be using those for EMS details.

64
00:17:36.320 --> 00:17:51.840
So they they might not be available for us to use as far as the committee is concerned. Um, >> should we have a couple of people walk and maybe hold that that 300 banner? >> Yes. So, either if we have committee

65
00:17:51.840 --> 00:18:08.240
members that are interested in doing that, we could do that. Um, Ashley has also offered for some of the Girl Scouts to do that if if we can't get people. >> Um, so that's a possibility. I have um a shower curtain rod we can that's white and we could just you know use that to

66
00:18:08.240 --> 00:18:28.080
hold it >> because it'll kind of hold it for two miles >> but how long is six feet or 8 your your curtain rod is probably six feet right >> it's adjustable >> it it depends if if the banner when it

67
00:18:28.080 --> 00:18:46.000
gets put in has the garnets which is the little holes which you can zip tie into a pole. It won't matter on the sides of the pole. >> I don't mind walking. I'm happy to be in. And maybe the girl's in the middle. >> Okay. >> You know, >> I'll be there. You just tell me what you

68
00:18:46.000 --> 00:19:02.640
want me to do. I don't I'll do whatever. >> Okay. >> Um, so might as well >> I'm sorry. Should I bring the $25 for the float to Colleen at the fire station? And is that the best way to do that? Cuz I haven't paid.

69
00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:18.960
>> So it's actually that's this has never been taken off. It's actually $100, but it's not for community mess. So you have you're covered. Community groups are free. >> Free. >> Yes. Unless you want to make a donation. Okay. >> If you want to make a donation, yes, you can bring it. But community groups are free. That's for businesses or

70
00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:33.679
politicians. >> Okay. >> Thank you. >> Just for obviousness throwing that out. The Girl Scouts are more of a filler. So, if any committee members do want to take up the 300 banner, there is no offense or anything taken. If somebody wants to do it, go for it. We'll just use the Girl Scouts as fillers because I

71
00:19:33.679 --> 00:19:49.200
have a lot. So, if someone wants to take it up, feel free to speak up. >> Okay. >> Uh, totally fine. But I think maybe the more that there's water stations and other things, it may said, if you have a need for you need people in certain places.

72
00:19:49.200 --> 00:20:05.360
>> Yeah. But right now, we'd like to have two people at each of the water stations other than like the beginning and end. those will be covered. Um, so we have four members signed up from CERT right now, but they just put out their sign up like 3 days ago. So, uh, we may need one or two people for water stations. I'll know a little bit better by next Monday.

73
00:20:05.360 --> 00:20:23.080
>> Okay. And I don't know, Colleen sent something out to the employees. I don't know how. >> Yes. So, we'll see if any employees are interested, too. She sent that out today. So, yeah. >> I unfortunately cannot be at the party. >> Okay. >> We'll miss you. I'm gonna I'm so

74
00:20:23.520 --> 00:20:39.760
I had a friend working on like a Yeah. So, yeah. No, I have a memorial I have to answer. So, um but I can't wait to hear all about it. >> Yeah. >> It'll be video. >> Yep. Local scene will be there. So, um they've been great about their coverage.

75
00:20:39.760 --> 00:20:59.000
>> I know. >> I'll be in the parade, but not in the parade. >> I'm so excited. I can't wait. >> Sorry. But not in the parade. >> Yeah. Right. incognito. >> Uh, we'll say sort of clandestin outfit.

76
00:20:59.600 --> 00:21:17.200
>> You don't have pictures of the banners, the three banners. >> Um, >> I have them in the office. >> We we did we already vote on those last time though? Are we going to do the the middle one, the with the red or did we not vote on it? >> Oh, I you showed a banner option was

77
00:21:17.200 --> 00:21:33.039
last week. Or maybe so maybe I'm think I think actually the parade committee voted on that. I'm sorry. The parade work. All right. Yeah. So, um yeah, >> we'll need to have that banner made up and then we need to have we need to take a vote for two banners for our grand marshalss.

78
00:21:33.039 --> 00:21:52.000
>> Do you do you want to show the 300th banner because I can just turn on my camera and show >> you could if you could do that that would be great. Please. Yes. >> Yeah. Hold on a second. >> Marshall specifically. Is that what it is? >> What's that? So, there's there's one for the parade itself that we um we're doing

79
00:21:52.000 --> 00:22:08.799
and then there's um we want to do two small ones for the marshals and I'll explain that in a minute. >> Um I do have two like Kingston Massachusetts. >> Yep. >> Yeah. If we um we can put them on if anyone wants to float or things like

80
00:22:08.799 --> 00:22:23.760
that, they can be Yep. >> And we have all that water. >> Yeah, we get that. We had requests for more water from other places as well. So, >> well, Ashley's bringing that up. I'll talk about that. So, the grand marshall

81
00:22:23.760 --> 00:22:42.080
um we did umly asked Jan Guabon to be our grand marshal. She declined and asked us to offer it to on Elm Street. Unfortunately, Mr. passed away. >> Um we were having um a like an associate

82
00:22:42.080 --> 00:22:57.760
grand marshall. We invited the book company to the the uh book committee to do that. Um so now they're going to be our grand marshall. >> So um one of our float participants uh the wear family Christmas farm on Penro Street uh participated in the duck parade and they took one of their hay

83
00:22:57.760 --> 00:23:13.200
wagons and made it into a boat. Um and then so they offered that. So we're actually going to put the 300th book committee on that. So we need to um all the banners just to put on the side saying the book committee grand marshals. So

84
00:23:13.200 --> 00:23:29.120
John, do you need Jan was wondering, do you need any additional signage from us? It sounds like not >> if you want to have something extra, but like I said, we're just going to have a grand marshals um whatever you would with 300 book, how would you want that worded? >> Um

85
00:23:29.120 --> 00:23:44.240
300 book committee 300 book committee. >> Kingston 300 book. Yeah. >> Okay. >> Um if that that's not too many words. No. >> Um, we we have that uh big cover print

86
00:23:44.240 --> 00:24:02.159
of the the book cover. Excuse me. >> Yeah. If you want to put that >> up on you can bring it and see how it will fit up on the thing. >> Yeah. >> Um Janna, what are our prices again? Do you remember off hand? Um I don't remember off hand but there like

87
00:24:02.159 --> 00:24:18.960
uh was it I'm going to misquote it even >> I would say I would say if you know 150 of >> I don't think it's that much. >> What about the larger one like when >> Yeah. Like if the largest one is >> by um like 8

88
00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:33.760
>> I think that was 150. >> Okay. So >> how long do they take to make? They can do it with a couple of days. >> Four days. >> Yeah. >> We print I got a banner. It cost me 115 for eight.

89
00:24:33.760 --> 00:24:49.279
>> Yeah. That's so I'm 150. >> Black and white or color might be more, but um >> well the black it's color for the Kingston one of these because it's going to have um it has some red on one of

90
00:24:49.279 --> 00:25:06.400
things. Um the let's do 600 you think be enough if someone brought made that motion. >> Well, how many banners you want? Three total. >> Three total. Yeah. >> So, I would do >> small ones and then one big one. >> Do let's do 600. >> Yeah. Okay. Someone want to make a

91
00:25:06.400 --> 00:25:22.400
motion for upwards of 600 for banners for the parade? >> I make a motion that we spend up to $600 for three banners for the 300 committee. >> Second that. Uh any discussion?

92
00:25:22.400 --> 00:25:38.640
>> Minger. I >> Janna Morsy. I >> Ken Brack. >> Patricia Tucker. I Paul Barry. I Chris Moral. I >> Joe Cunningham Jr. I >> Joe Cunningham the third. I >> Mike Linatra I.

93
00:25:38.640 --> 00:25:55.039
>> Okay. Um, Ashley, do you have that banner or No, >> I I I have the one that says uh parade on it and I have the other one that doesn't say pray on it, but it's digital. So, I'll show this one to start and then we can I'm I'm finding the Yep, there's my

94
00:25:55.039 --> 00:26:10.880
forehead. I'm trying to make sure you can >> Oh, that's right. I haven't seen that. >> I'm going to zoom in a little bit just so you can see because it won't let me. Mhm. >> That's beautiful.

95
00:26:10.880 --> 00:26:27.440
>> Yeah. Love it. I like the colors. >> So, imagine it just doesn't have parade in it. So, we can use it for multiple uses. >> Yeah. I was just going to say if we could get a uh universal banner so that we could use it also for home day. >> Exactly. That's that was the thought.

96
00:26:27.440 --> 00:26:41.760
So, we're going to take the parade out of it. >> Right. Um do you think that would increase it significantly or think the six is good? >> That's a lot of color. That's more That's multiple colors. So, um, what did we say? Three banners. >> Yeah.

97
00:26:41.760 --> 00:26:58.000
>> Um, why don't we just do let's do a thousand just to make sure. Okay. >> Color costs a lot. Color costs a lot. So, um, I move that we spend upward $1,000 on banners.

98
00:26:58.000 --> 00:27:16.000
>> Okay. >> Second. >> Second. Second. >> All right. And again, >> yeah. other other than the blue which I know we print for example like when you do multiple colors for example if it's not a white background in general it starts at 83 if it's tax exempt which it

99
00:27:16.000 --> 00:27:32.720
would be um but then from there it would just change a little bit if you if they get a solid blue background just throwing that out there because we just put ours in and ours is multiple colors and it's 83. >> Yeah. Okay. >> Okay. Um All right. So I'll finish with

100
00:27:32.720 --> 00:27:47.679
Janna. So >> I Chris Corano I >> and then online >> Joe Cunningham Jr. I >> Joe Cunningham the third eye I >> Michael Can I make one more change? No,

101
00:27:47.679 --> 00:28:04.320
just kidding. I >> Well, it's funny you said the change because we were saying universal and and in this sense you wanted to say celebrating 300 years of Kingston, but if we were to use it again next year it's 301. So it's like devil's advocate. So, as long as we don't have parade in there, we can use it for multiple

102
00:28:04.320 --> 00:28:19.840
things. It's just if we were to use it for next year or something else. That's the only issue. Just >> Yeah, I think it's just to use for this year's events >> for old old home day. >> We can put it on the Adam. Yeah. So, >> sure. We're not going to need another

103
00:28:19.840 --> 00:28:35.679
banner for about 25 or 50 years after this point. >> Somebody can have it hanging up in their house or something. >> That we could we could auction it off if we have to, >> right? Um, >> all right. >> So, to get voting and stuff out of the way, can I go through this whole v bill

104
00:28:35.679 --> 00:28:50.399
schedule and then just do one vote? >> Yeah, sure. >> Okay. So, um, we do have a couple more things we need to vote on for the parade. Um, there is, um, I'll go through the list of who we kind of who we have, but, um, some of them do charge us. So, there is, um, a model T club.

105
00:28:50.399 --> 00:29:07.760
Um, they, um, charge $250. Um, so that's one of them. Um, there's a grand marching band. So, all of our marching bands have agreed to $1,800 in cost. We already voted on the McGrand, so that's all set. Um, we have the Great American Marching Band, which is a veterans own marching band there, 1800. We have

106
00:29:07.760 --> 00:29:24.320
they're called the Oompa Misters brass band. I guess they're a mix between Madigra and um like PA, they have they have giant Poland and stuff. They're all mobile. So, um yep, we get them. Um so, they're 1,800. And

107
00:29:24.320 --> 00:29:43.840
then um we did already take the the vote for um to reimburse Ken. So that's all set. So there is uh let's see. >> I can get into that. >> What's that? >> Um the thing that we were discussing

108
00:29:43.840 --> 00:30:00.240
um for the big jelly guy. Are we going to do anything with that? >> Oh yeah. Do you need reimbursement for that? Uh, if we're going to do that, um, I didn't purchase anything yet, if you know what I'm the candy float, special float >> um

109
00:30:00.240 --> 00:30:15.039
>> cost. >> Yeah. Do you have an amount? >> Um, I mean, just looking it up for a 30,000 piece um, assortment for a short parade. I mean, we we went through probably more than that. It wouldn't be chocolate. It would be just like regular

110
00:30:15.039 --> 00:30:30.720
like Tootsie Roll candies and stuff like that. So that's probably roughly I think it's roughly in the ballpark of $200 two and change. >> All right. Do 250 just to >> Yeah, I'm sure it'll be less than that, but if you could do the 250 to add it in there and then I'll I'll I'll purchase

111
00:30:30.720 --> 00:30:45.919
it and take care of it from there. >> Just throw it out, Mike, because we were looking as well for Girl Scouts, although we went with something different. We found that the candy on uh uh excuse me, Amazon was having a clearance, so just uh have fun with that. It's it's it's a good sale. Just

112
00:30:45.919 --> 00:31:00.720
throwing that out there. >> Yeah, I I've used um C it's called Candy in bulk and it um it's actually like a it came out cheaper than actually getting stuff on on Amazon, but I'll look into the uh clearance part, too. >> No pro problem. Just want to throw it

113
00:31:00.720 --> 00:31:24.320
out. I'll look there, too. >> No, no, I hear you. >> I wish I did not know that website existed. >> Right. I know, right? was well you gota if you're asking the right Santa I mean the right person >> okay um so if someone would be willing

114
00:31:24.320 --> 00:31:41.760
to make a motion um between the two marching bands the and the Model T club plus um the funding for the um the float at the end of the parade or the the fire truck with the special guest at the end of the parade um it's $4,100 $100 if we

115
00:31:41.760 --> 00:31:56.720
could have someone make a motion to cover all this. >> How many marching bands? You said three, right? >> We have three right now. >> We already voted on. >> There is. Yeah. One we already voted on, so that's covered. Um we actually voted on a separate one too, the um Taton City, but they're I still haven't heard complete word from them yet.

116
00:31:56.720 --> 00:32:11.200
>> I'm just thinking just the marching bands are going to be $5,000. >> Well, we already voted on one, >> so that's Yeah. >> All right. I'm sorry. I'm not the contract. >> No, you're trying to keep an eye on the money. I appreciate that. >> Yep. >> I I can't remember the list. 00 if

117
00:32:11.200 --> 00:32:27.519
someone can. >> I make a motion we approve $4,100 for parade expenses. >> Um, >> that's it. >> Second. >> I can do that. >> All right. >> M Ballinger I.

118
00:32:27.519 --> 00:32:42.080
>> Jenna Mory. I >> Ken Brack. >> Trisha Tucker. I >> Chris Morano. I >> don't line. >> Joe Cunningham Jr. I >> Oh, spending money. hand over the best

119
00:32:42.080 --> 00:32:57.760
>> and Mike or Joe. >> Michael. >> All right. >> Thank you. >> Monopoly money at this point. We don't have the actual bills. >> Um, >> so the only other thing, >> right? The only other two things we'll

120
00:32:57.760 --> 00:33:14.080
have for spending right now that we know of, um, actually three. I said we may have one more band and then there may possibly be another band, but they wouldn't get paid until later because we're past that that point. Um, we have school buses coming to shuttle

121
00:33:14.080 --> 00:33:30.080
people back. So, um, they wouldn't bill us, so I had to put that on a credit card, but they're not going to bill me till right before it. So, I will submit that next time. And then, um, we'll have, um, police details. So, it's probably going to be about 11 police details. So, that will probably be a

122
00:33:30.080 --> 00:33:45.840
little bit of a significant expense as well. Um, but we won't know that till after. So, um, that should be it on the monies for right now. Um so what we have so far um we have

123
00:33:45.840 --> 00:34:02.320
fire trucks, police vehicles from the department, the highway department is going to be participating. The um facilities selectmen um the harbor mass is going to be pulling have their out with one of their boats >> really.

124
00:34:02.320 --> 00:34:19.919
>> Um I'm probably might be missing some of the other kinks and stuff so I apologize. Um we will have outside fire departments, outside police departments. Um it's going to be led off by three members of the police department on motorcycles. Um so um there's a father

125
00:34:19.919 --> 00:34:36.079
and son on the department, the patrius is and this will be um Zach the sergeants the father's last big har. So he's going to ride with his son. So that that'll be nice. Um they are also trying to get other bikes from other towns. So they will also participate in the

126
00:34:36.079 --> 00:34:52.240
parade. Um with that we have approximately 40 floats. >> 40 >> 40. Yeah vehicle. Uh I'm sorry 20 I wrong number. Sorry. >> 20 and then other probably about 40 vehicles. So that's I said it backwards.

127
00:34:52.240 --> 00:35:07.359
Yeah. 20. I'm like oh my god. >> 20. We have about 20 floats. >> Yeah. >> So we have um three floats from the um America's hometown parade. the Thanksgiving Day parade. So, we have two existing floats and then they're um

128
00:35:07.359 --> 00:35:24.400
Ollie De Moto is building a um float with the Independence >> for for Kingston's anniversary. Um it's going to be in their parade, but he's going to debut it at us. Yep. >> Um >> the I'm probably saying this wrong again. The Baklu, which is a a boat that

129
00:35:24.400 --> 00:35:41.200
was built in our shipyard in the 1800s. They're pulling it out and they're going to bring that in the parade as well. Nice. >> Um, we're still waiting to hear back from sports teams, so hopefully we have some sports teams participate. We do have Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts um, participating. Um, we do have some World War II reenactors and vehicles um,

130
00:35:41.200 --> 00:35:55.920
participating. I did try to get the National Guard. Um, I was a little bit too late. They want a 90-day window. So, I I tried some back channels too, people I know and they just they were not >> Yeah. So, >> so we do have um a Model T club and we

131
00:35:55.920 --> 00:36:12.000
also have a Corvette club. Um, so Oh, >> and they're going to have 10 to 15 cars, I believe. So, >> excellent. >> So, um there are a few more things, I think, but nothing's quite set in stone yet. So, that's what we have. Um a few

132
00:36:12.000 --> 00:36:27.760
businesses have submitted stuff and some like social groups and stuff have done. So, um >> did the library do >> No, I talked to Dawn yesterday and they unfortunately with some um some staff that left and stuff, they weren't able to do it. Yeah. >> Yeah. trusty turned over to with the

133
00:36:27.760 --> 00:36:43.599
last election. Yeah. >> Um we did get a $100 check today from Urban. >> Yep. Okay. >> So, um right now I think we just had >> five groups that had to pay and I think we received payment by three, but we set the date for Friday, so we're good.

134
00:36:43.599 --> 00:36:58.560
>> All right. >> Right now. Yep. >> Um so, we get the vegans, we get that. Um yes. So as far as the incident action plan concerned um we do have those five water stations we are in the process of

135
00:36:58.560 --> 00:37:14.960
um trying to get uh members from the Duckley Fire Department and the Penrook Fire Department to do EMS details. So we'll put them at different areas of the parade. Um we'll be having an ambulance staged somewhere in the parade uh off to the side one of the side streets as well. So if there are any participants

136
00:37:14.960 --> 00:37:31.119
or spectators that have um some sort of emergency, we can get to them rather quickly. Um there uh not that we have to get into it much here, but there are arrangements for other towns to get to different places in town for emergencies. So that's all being taken care of.

137
00:37:31.119 --> 00:37:46.960
>> And the post office too said they're all set. >> Yes. >> Because they were worried about we um Yeah, we >> What? Post office was worried about delivering the mail. >> Yeah. So that that was good that you guys did a really good job communicating. I got one call from a

138
00:37:46.960 --> 00:38:04.800
Copper Beach resident today. Yeah. And yeah. >> Yeah. So if if you do hear anything again um either the >> back entrance will be open for them or um they will be we will have police details to allow them out. They're not going to be >> the back entrance I mean to the to the

139
00:38:04.800 --> 00:38:21.280
train station is going to be open >> for the residents only possibly. We're not 100% sure. But either way there's going to be access for them in and out. We're not going to >> block. >> Can I move that we block off their road and not let them out? >> No. Sorry, that's up to that's up to the

140
00:38:21.280 --> 00:38:37.680
police department. >> John, this seems to have gotten a lot bigger than you thought, huh? >> Real quick. Yeah. >> No. Well, >> this is what this is what I was anticipating, but um like the last eight days. Yes. It it tripled, which is getting a little worried ago.

141
00:38:37.680 --> 00:38:54.839
>> Yeah. Yeah. >> Um I have a question. Um with I know he's not going to do a float, but you were on the email from Jim Fernandez. Yes. Yes. >> I don't know if he wants to. >> Oh, so I um he um coordinated with Katherine Latacho. They're doing a vehicle together.

142
00:38:55.760 --> 00:39:11.040
>> Um just just backtracking. So the residents of Copper Kushman and Second Brook Street all got paper flyers. Um so and for the most part, anybody that came out were very positive about the response. They appreciate the heads up

143
00:39:11.040 --> 00:39:25.599
in person because half of them don't do internet. So just putting that out there. >> Good. >> Yeah. No, that was wonderful. >> Yeah. No, we definitely had to have that for because those are going to be the most affected streets. So, >> they did not go in the mailboxes. They were taped in rings and put on the

144
00:39:25.599 --> 00:39:42.640
flags. I checked with USPS and the the police department. We did illegally. We're good. >> Good job. >> Thank you again for doing that. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No problem. >> Did ask Ashley as well also went to some of our um stores and ask for water donations. So, >> we're waiting to hear for that as well.

145
00:39:42.640 --> 00:39:58.800
Um, so, uh, we do have the Lions Club that's going to be donating some coolers. Uh, oh, actually, Mike, um, I didn't get a chance to ask you on the side. Do you have any coolers either from sports or for the police station that we could use that day? >> Yeah, we have, uh, a handful of coolers

146
00:39:58.800 --> 00:40:14.079
that we use for National Night Out. Probably um, I could probably do four of the large igloo uh, coolers. >> Okay. H I I can see if the other ones are uh some of them we just strictly use

147
00:40:14.079 --> 00:40:29.200
just for food >> and the other ones are just like for water and stuff like that. So I I think there's four or five that we usually use for for the water. >> Okay, great. >> Just backtracking. Uh Lowe's Anastasia said just tell her how many cases you

148
00:40:29.200 --> 00:40:47.040
want and then as far as the why, um they just want to know how much and they're going to give it to you as a gift card and then you go in and get the waters. I don't know why. >> They usually do that. Yes. Yeah. So, there's there's just an online app we just got to fill out, but otherwise everybody was Yep. Sure. So, >> all right. Yeah. I'm um I get off in the

149
00:40:47.040 --> 00:41:03.839
morning, so I'll contact you. We'll we'll work that out tomorrow. >> Yep. >> You're around. Okay. >> So, >> what other donated the water? Sorry. >> Um >> Big Y, Lowe's, and you said Stop and Shop did >> um I did Big Y, I did Lowe's, I did Stop

150
00:41:03.839 --> 00:41:19.599
and Shop, and also Target. >> Oh, okay. because we deal with them with cookies. So, um, and then honestly, if you want, Plymouth Walmart Colony Place probably would be up for it, too. But I don't know. >> They they usually do with with neighboring communities if if they

151
00:41:19.599 --> 00:41:38.000
receive people that shop there. So, that's a possibility. Yeah, >> I'll just throw them one anyway. Okay. >> Okay. So, uh, says golf carts, Indian Pond Country Clubs donating golf carts for us to use, right? >> So, that's, um, that's where we get those from. We'll also be putting a a

152
00:41:38.000 --> 00:41:54.800
vehicle in the parade. >> Nice. >> Oh, nice. Okay, good. Good. >> I really have one. >> Um, so signage, I don't know if you've seen um we do have the two electronic signs. Yes, one of them is um Brothers

153
00:41:54.800 --> 00:42:09.839
Road Beat, the other one's in the center. So, that was one of the requirements of the state that we have those up ahead of time and highway is perfectly fine for that. >> Um we're trying to get them up on I see it's out here. Y >> we're trying to get at the fire station. Um so hopefully we get that information out. >> Um

154
00:42:09.839 --> 00:42:25.680
>> yeah, they're very effective. >> No. >> Oh, so the state required >> that as part of our permit. >> Um >> well, because we're on 3A. >> Yeah. >> For a good portion of those. >> So, uh we were going to attempt to block off just the northbound

155
00:42:25.680 --> 00:42:42.079
section of the highway. The police are working with the state police. They might just shut that whole ramp down coming just the the off ramp. Yeah. um that way people don't come right and then have to turn around in that short area. Um but everything else will stay open from the highway. We're anticipating a 45m minute start time to

156
00:42:42.079 --> 00:42:59.119
get everyone up and out and then >> okay >> um >> our really main concern is just shutting Main Street to Summer Street that as far as the permit in the state is concerned. After that we're um we're pretty good controlling our roads. So um anybody else have anything on the

157
00:42:59.119 --> 00:43:14.880
parade? All right. >> Um, so we have, if anyone is available, we do have another meeting Monday at 4:30, uh, at the fire station 105 Pero Street. I will be sending out information to everyone in the group, um, via email so that you can have it,

158
00:43:14.880 --> 00:43:30.720
uh, whatever you decide to do, whether you want to participate in the parade or be on a float or whatever. Um, we can coordinate that. I'll have a better idea after Monday of who we have for volunteers, um, if we do need anyone to to man any water stations or anything like that. But our biggest thing um

159
00:43:30.720 --> 00:43:46.000
before the parade if I could have as many committee members as we can along with the search team just to organize where people are going to go. >> So >> So far, can we just take a roll call of who's able to attend? >> Sure. That would be great. >> Well, John, you're obviously there.

of patches to you to start selling them. They are on the site, but >> Okay. >> You'll have them that morning anyway for anyone who wants them, right? For the skeleton stuff. >> Yep. They all know they have to come to me. There's no Oh, my brother. Nope. Sorry.

169
00:46:14.480 --> 00:46:31.280
>> So, you have the patches in hand. Yep. So, can you draw? We voted on a portion for us. Correct. >> For Tr. Yep. >> Trish wanted some. So, >> yeah. Trish Trish Trish wanted some. >> All right. Um because we were if we want

00:46:31.280 --> 00:46:46.560
to sell them at the merch table because you're doing July 21st. So, if you want to get their patches ahead of time. >> Yeah. I can if actually if you do drop some off, I can pick it up with you with the cash box. >> Yeah. >> I assume we're wearing our Kingston 300 shirt. >> Sure.

171
00:46:46.560 --> 00:47:02.000

172
00:47:02.000 --> 00:47:18.880
>> Um, Joe the third, sorry. Are you going to be available or no? >> I will be there. >> All right. Thank you. Oh, the other thing I got a a lukewarm reception from Sue at the recreation about doing a bike brigade.

173
00:47:18.880 --> 00:47:33.599
>> Okay. >> Haven't heard anything more. And since I won't be there, I'm okay. >> I'm not going to unless any of our recreation commissioners wanted to follow up on that. >> Yeah, the police might have one member that took that class on a bicycle, but they might not depending on what they

174
00:47:33.599 --> 00:47:51.119
need them for. So, yeah, that might not work out. >> Okay. Absolutely. >> All right. Thank you. So, yeah, I'll be in contact when we get more of it finalized next week. So, thank you. >> Yes.

175
00:47:51.119 --> 00:48:08.480
>> Yes. Yes. >> Anything else on the parade? >> Awesome. >> Excellent. >> So, we move on to Old Home Day. Um so, Old Home Day. Um I know you brought it up um to me the other day, Mike. Um, are we between Mike and Joe the third now?

176
00:48:08.480 --> 00:48:25.119
Are we working on uh getting the recck department a vote from them? >> Yeah. So, I uh I spoke with Sue um and Trish knows also I'm on board with uh getting the vote from the rec commission and then we'll be going to the

177
00:48:25.119 --> 00:48:40.800
selectman's meeting right after that following that. So, we should be in time for uh getting that squared away. So, I'm I'm already being put on the agenda for uh for the reccomission. So, >> great. The rec meeting is August 3rd. >> Okay.

178
00:48:40.800 --> 00:48:56.559
>> All right. Is there paperwork? Do they make them do you fill out paperwork to do those? Okay. >> Well, the I already had the uh the date is already in there. It's just what happened is that we when I went there and presented it, >> it was just being presented that that's what was going to go on. It wasn't voted

179
00:48:56.559 --> 00:49:12.160
on, >> right? >> So, now it has to be voted on. And then once it's voted on, then I can bring it to the selectant to get the liquor license. >> Um, it definitely has to be. You have paperwork. Sue sent it to the uh >> I have that already. >> Oh, okay. Great. >> I have that already. That's already I

180
00:49:12.160 --> 00:49:28.079
already filled that out. >> I just got that the uh two days ago when I talked to her. >> Um, and I was saying um typically when 42nd comes before the board >> Mhm. They don't request their insurance ahead of time and then it's like a

181
00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:48.240
30-day wait. So, as soon as you meet with recreation, have them come to me. >> Okay. >> So, that there's no delay. >> Okay. That part I didn't know. Okay. That's good to know. >> Excellent. Okay. >> All right. Um, Mike, uh, Joe, anything

182
00:49:48.240 --> 00:50:05.280
else on the, uh, old home day >> as far as the, uh, that's that's for the liquor license. Um, you had the numbers, I believe, for the fireworks. Um, the DJ is $500. Um, looking to set up a merch table. I mean, basically the same stuff. I

183
00:50:05.280 --> 00:50:21.280
haven't really The only thing I'm having a hard time for for some whatever reason, but I'm going to reach out to one other person that I know. Um and actually through the agricultural club is um the cow the metal muffin >> uh to get that squid away because the

184
00:50:21.280 --> 00:50:36.960
two people that messaged and said that they were interested when I messaged back they I got absolutely nothing. >> Um I have two two food trucks and one dessert truck um squared away. They're ready to go. Um

185
00:50:36.960 --> 00:50:54.400
that's done. the golf balls for the golf ball drop. I'm gonna work on getting a couple of uh donated ones for that. And >> and you do have approval for the tower truck, too. I don't know if I do. >> Uh no, I didn't know that, but uh >> I was going to comeandeer it anyway. Um

186
00:50:54.400 --> 00:51:10.960
which is good. Um that as far as uh money and then really it's um as far as if we're going to be doing obviously waters, I would have to have we'd have to square that away. I'm going to get the Citizens Police Academy to get some volunteers to

187
00:51:10.960 --> 00:51:26.559
brainstorm that. Um, I am going to need volunteers to run a couple of the games. Um, and then I'm going to need something for prizes, whether we do merch or we do something that we come up with. Um, something along those lines. Just just a little something here and there. Um, and

188
00:51:26.559 --> 00:51:43.680
we'll still have the home run derby >> with the cow drop thing. If you run into really bad trouble, I mean, the Marshfield Fair is in, >> no pun intended, >> and then they could uh whoever goes just ask in the agricultural area, too.

189
00:51:43.680 --> 00:52:00.079
>> Like so many. >> Oh, when you go there. Yeah. Yeah. >> Okay, that's a good idea. And maybe when you're at the wreck getting voted on on the third to see if they can reach out to maybe any of their camp counselors, high schoolers, volunteer hours

190
00:52:00.079 --> 00:52:15.760
>> to run the games for you. >> Yeah. >> Yep. That that's a good idea. I'm I'm like pulled between the two different things that I got going on. So I apologize. >> I know. You know, so and if there's anything you want to delegate, Mike, delegate it.

191
00:52:15.760 --> 00:52:30.960
>> Yeah. Oh, no. I I fully plan on delegating that. is just um I was just trying to get one thing squared away that I was having a big problem with >> and then the other thing popped up last minute so I got that squared away and now >> I could concentrate a little bit on trying to get this delegated to a couple

192
00:52:30.960 --> 00:52:46.000
of people if if everybody were to take you know take a uh take a game per se and then grab a friend or two to run the game or then we got you know getting potato sacks and stuff like that you know to do or you know if you're doing a three-legged race or you know potato

193
00:52:46.000 --> 00:53:02.720
sack race stuff like that I want to try and get a couple of the old style games in there that they did that they did in the old days. Um, you know, maybe the egg on a spoon type of thing, you know, stuff like that. I looked it up and uh I print that out a couple of things >> and then maybe got a couple cornhole

194
00:53:02.720 --> 00:53:18.559
boards if kids want to play cornhole and stuff like that. I'll look into, you know, obviously the the usual face uh face painting thing. And then the last problem, which I I really don't know how to handle it at this point because I don't know what kind of a showing we're

195
00:53:18.559 --> 00:53:34.000
going to get, uh, would be the parking issue down there and how many people are going to actually show up for it. Um, obviously a contingency plan would be the school and having shuttle buses, but the problem is is how, you know, how far

196
00:53:34.000 --> 00:53:49.599
in advance you do that? How do we get a judge, but you know, how do we get a gauge on how many people are actually going to show up? I mean, we'll put up a Facebook page and then see how many people did on the Facebook page and, you know, do an invite and stuff like that and get an idea what that >> But I could tell you but I could tell

197
00:53:49.599 --> 00:54:05.760
you from an experience when we did National Night Out, you know, you had like 4,000 people say they're coming and then we get, you know, 700. So, it's >> Has Ken Ken Moi reached out to you? >> Uh, Kenton reached out to me about something. I'm going to let him handle

198
00:54:05.760 --> 00:54:20.960
that portion of it. Um >> Oh, okay. I I'd rather >> He just came to me a few weeks ago. >> Yeah. I uh I texted him back. I you know, he's got a great idea about having uh like if people want to pay for like premier parking at the Hilltop and

199
00:54:20.960 --> 00:54:35.680
>> something with drink something with drinks and hot dogs and you know, food there, which I don't want to take away from the food trucks, >> you know, because they're kind they're coming down for that. >> But if it's just basic hot dogs and hamburgers for people that are parking there.

200
00:54:35.680 --> 00:54:51.599
Um, but I didn't want to I didn't want to clash with anything. So, I'm letting I asked him if he would run the re take the reigns with that >> and let him and you know, we'll put a link to it if you're interested in this. You know, here you go. And let him put something together.

201
00:54:51.599 --> 00:55:08.000
>> Um, and then let him handle it so I don't have to worry about handling that part. That'll be the delegation part. >> I'll let him I'll let him handle that portion of it. And then he said he would give a kickback um towards you know he he wanted us to come up with a price. I'd rather him

202
00:55:08.000 --> 00:55:24.880
come up with a price. I'm I'm not >> right >> I'm not going to you know try and figure out how much to pay for parking a hot dog and you know >> a frozen adequate uh drink of some sort. >> Um so that would be that's another thing that's that's going on with that. Um we

203
00:55:24.880 --> 00:55:40.079
still we're still good for the fire I think we're going to do the 4 to 8 time frame. Um, I looked at the sunset which is roughly 7:00. Um, and I figure by the time it goes down, you know, it's the, you

204
00:55:40.079 --> 00:55:57.040
know, it sets, the sun sets, it should be dark enough at that point where we could have the field lights on, let, you know, let everybody still continue what they're doing and then just do it like a uh like something with the music and cut the lights out all at

205
00:55:57.040 --> 00:56:13.599
one shot and then have the display go off uh all together. Uh the DJ is going to see about getting the music um linked Bluetooth via Bluetooth or cable or whatever it may be to the firework display. So the fireworks will go off to

206
00:56:13.599 --> 00:56:30.960
music and the music will coincide with the fireworks. >> Um and we're going to I'm going to have him placed I got to talk to sports. >> Um I'm gonna I want to have him up in the football um um the football box.

207
00:56:30.960 --> 00:56:46.319
the football stand and have the speakers angled down on the field. Uh so that this way the music covers or echoes throughout the you know the rest of it there. >> And if I'm lucky enough if they have some decent speakers there maybe we could tap into that you too uh to use

208
00:56:46.319 --> 00:57:02.480
that um just to get something good with that. Um merch table the the comfort dogs will be there. the um Kingston PD will have their clinicians there just to socialize and you know give out um pamphlets and

209
00:57:02.480 --> 00:57:19.920
stuff. Um obviously anybody that wants to set up a little bit of a table along the outside or the outskirts of the of the field, they're more than welcome to. So, if the girl scouts, boy scouts want to set up a table of some sort. Um, if you want to set up the for the patches along there as well, selling the patches

210
00:57:19.920 --> 00:57:41.599
there, I'll probably have Kingston sell the try to sell the rest of the patches that they have at that function. Um, trying to think of what else I'm missing. >> Oh, so cute. Um

211
00:57:41.599 --> 00:58:00.559
um trying to think of what the other the other thing was. Oh, did I lose you? >> With so many good ideas that you've got and then some things or areas that you might need a hand in. It's not to uh not

212
00:58:00.559 --> 00:58:17.599
to put make you do more work, but if you wrote like a list and sent it to us of like areas you might need help with like with the kids um or for the games like Liz Petrell at St. Joseph's has a group of like kids that help out different stuff and like I could reach out to her but I would want to know which areas you

213
00:58:17.599 --> 00:58:34.160
might want help in. And then as far as like you mentioned gifts, you could do like gift baskets and then everybody like kind of throws something in. You can make a couple baskets. So if you wrote not again not more work for you but if you wrote like a list of here's what you need like some of us can help you tackle it and then same thing if we

214
00:58:34.160 --> 00:58:49.680
do a flyer >> with a QR code and post online and da da da you could have a signup sheet for volunteers where people scan and sign themselves up. >> Yeah I mean that that helps too. Uh absolutely. I'm not going to turn that down. That sounds absolutely perfect. I

215
00:58:49.680 --> 00:59:07.359
mean, as far as far as like prizes and stuff, I at this point, like I said at at the other meetings, I you know, I I just feel so guilty and so bad because we always hit up all the businesses for so much when we do national night out, when we do softball, when we do. So, I

216
00:59:07.359 --> 00:59:23.920
feel like I I don't want to feel like I'm going back all the time, but if it's a different face and somebody wants to do it, then absolutely not a problem. Did we talk last meeting about possibly doing the patch as prizes or >> the patches as prizes? I mean, >> yeah. I mean, doing doing the patches

217
00:59:23.920 --> 00:59:40.079
small price tag for us and we have money in our bank account rather than hitting up the businesses >> that we also in the past talked about some of our merch. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> I I mean, I like I like the idea of the merch. Um, you know, some of the, you

218
00:59:40.079 --> 00:59:55.280
know, the smaller merch, not not the, you know, the towels and and the blankets that we were just talking about because that's way too expensive. >> But as far as something, you know, hats or >> which reminds me of hats. I'm missing a baseball hat I got to get. Um,

219
00:59:55.280 --> 01:00:11.359
>> but I mean, some some of the stuff we don't even have to hit up the local businesses. There's like a lot of locals like Honey and all that stuff that we could, some of us have connections and we can make some gift baskets. Yeah. With the 300 path to be representative, but we don't even have to hit up Stop

220
01:00:11.359 --> 01:00:27.440
and Shop or all those places. We could just find some local places that like have some stuff that they want to throw in a basket. Like baskets come together pretty quick and they'll look pretty. So, I mean, it's up to you. Are you talking to at this at the lowest level like um I forget what it was? Oriental

221
01:00:27.440 --> 01:00:43.760
trading type prizes for games like nothing not that low level. >> Um I mean a little bit a little bit a little bit a little bit I mean you know a little bit higher than that. Something something along those lines. >> And and again so yes if you guys are saying that you have connections or you

222
01:00:43.760 --> 01:01:00.160
could throw baskets together. I will take baskets for that would be one thing that off my plate if somebody wants to handle doing baskets for prizes for it. I mean, we're probably going to have we'll have the um like the home run derby, I think, is I I think we were going to I forgot how we were going to

223
01:01:00.160 --> 01:01:17.040
do that. That the home run derby is is one thing I got to work on that. Um the prizes for the the the uh meadow muffin. um prizes for the golf ball drop >> and then you know and then little little prizes here and there for probably I'm probably going to have like five other

224
01:01:17.040 --> 01:01:32.480
little games you know the potato sack race or the we'll have a tug of war maybe against the police and fire um we'll do um something along those lines um cornhole tournaments um the cornhole tournaments I I you know what I take that back because that's

225
01:01:32.480 --> 01:01:47.119
>> of a different that's of a that's of a different breed we'll put it that way um we'll the cornhole boards out for people to play if they want to keep play, you know, if they want to play and have fun, >> we'll leave that out for them. >> But the potato sack race, the

226
01:01:47.119 --> 01:02:04.559
three-legged race, the um uh what the heck is the other thing? Um the egg and the spoon, and then there was something else. So, I think I had four or five >> games of that level or that caliber that I was looking to do a couple of little

227
01:02:04.559 --> 01:02:21.599
>> times. like a three-legged race is going to take 30 seconds. So, how many like you kind of have to figure out how long you going to do it and how many prizes you going to need each, >> correct? >> So, I was just thinking being the, you know, um I I remember doing like old old

228
01:02:21.599 --> 01:02:38.559
home days, you know, in my day when I came in second in the pie eating contest, but I'm not so bitter. Um when you got ribbons like first, second, and third plate. >> Oh, right. >> Right. How do we You want to do something that simple? >> I mean, we could do something simple like that. I'm But I mean, you would

229
01:02:38.559 --> 01:02:55.680
have to >> I mean, you could probably I mean, if you want to pull together, you know, maybe a trade in you get a small prize and each time you do you do the race and if you want to trade it in for a bigger prize, you do it again or >> Yeah. >> something along those lines. Like they

230
01:02:55.680 --> 01:03:12.240
do it like a >> like a like a progressive thing for for a couple of the games. Yeah. >> Yeah. I mean, like, yeah. Progressive games, something along those lines. How about >> But you're giving back the smaller one. You're giving back the smaller one, and if you don't win, then you you lose it all together.

231
01:03:12.240 --> 01:03:28.319
>> One of when you make your list, maybe include like maybe a prize value or if this is one of the ones that you want to do the trade up for, just so that we have an idea of which ones and how many, >> right? Okay. >> Just just going to say that that ticket

232
01:03:28.319 --> 01:03:44.559
thing sounded good because a spool of tickets is nothing. And then they go to trade it in and >> right >> we could do like the arcade but >> yeah well you know >> the two we could do like 10 tickets. Yeah. >> Idea actually.

233
01:03:44.559 --> 01:04:01.039
>> Well so that I mean and that would be what we could do for you know for those particular you know those game but you'd have to have x amount of prizes >> right. Um because and again who knows how many people are actually going to come out and and do that.

234
01:04:01.039 --> 01:04:16.960
>> And then for the people that are you know just for fun you do the tugof-war who's who wants to be the champion of you know something along those l you know something along those lines or you know the for the tugof-war or you know the bigger prize would be because we're probably only going to do one or two you

235
01:04:16.960 --> 01:04:33.760
know maybe metal muffin drops I guess you could say. So you would have a decent prize for the winner of that >> and maybe the golf ball thing, >> right? Yeah. >> The home the home run derby. If we get into the whole, you know, if we charge to do that and do a 50/50, then are we

236
01:04:33.760 --> 01:04:49.119
going to get into the whole gambling license thing? And >> I think we need a separate meeting just like >> by our August meeting, do you want to see if you can come up with um like a date and see if a group together to do like a working group for that? Yeah,

237
01:04:49.119 --> 01:05:05.520
because like I said, I I just I'm swamped with the two of them. >> Um and then with the two things I got going on and now it's um now that I have a little bit of time here and there, but I need to get the other people involved. >> Yeah,

238
01:05:05.520 --> 01:05:21.280
