I haven't either park, >> but there are I think there's little self point ones I think they're called. U Well, the point is that the route goes
not right in front of us, so that's an issue. Um I had a talk with Andre and she just asked us if we can like change it a little in that area. >> Um it's all certified all that crap. >> Exactly. So I spoke to Ruben this week and he said that it's something he can do. >> Okay, good.
>> So he's looking into So just FYI in case the route looks a little different. >> Oh, >> we haven't published it yet. I don't think so. Um, but just wanted to make you guys >> Is it like an easy way to really earmark it because these people that have been doing it for years are going to be like going the wrong way? >> They should be following the They should
be following the like they have signage and stuff. That's what does. >> Okay. >> I make sure wherever that new turn is. Make sure Luben really makes it clear. >> Yeah. >> So, >> it shouldn't affect the lot of route. It's just that small area. >> They're usually what they do when they
intersections like that. you'll have oneway traffic coming out then so they only close one lane will give the people that live there >> but the only go >> and uh and not only that apparently last year we I I did receive a call last year
before the fight came from one of the warehouses that I guess they had workers coming in that morning and it wasn't going to affect them but they never left me a call back number so I never got in contact so we spoke to the property manager and she said that yeah they would prefer if that area there's like, you know, entrance and exit into their
area. So, >> they can do the same thing. They can narrow it to one lane where people have good access. >> I'm not concerned about it because Ruben said he can handle it. I asked him, I'm like, I know it's a certified route. Do can like do you have the capability of redoing this or do we need to like externally go to somewhere? He's like,
no, I can help you guys with this. So, we're good. >> Maybe he needs to tell officer Amidor so we know we know what we're doing. Okay, >> I'll give them a heads up. I'll release a heads up. >> Okay. Wonder if they had that one issues. >> Multi-million dollar business.
>> Are we all good with all the barricades and all the banners that we made? >> Barricades are good. >> Uh yes, we're bringing the same materials as as previous years. Just updating it with the sponsors. >> Okay. >> Volunteers. I just went live with

It's nature. >> Yeah. All right. That's like a I was thinking also maybe next year to just improve this a little bit. Let's have

So let's take each individually a motion to uh approve this subcommittee meeting September 4th with modification. Have a second. >> Second. >> That was done. >> That was already done. >> I was done last. >> Okay. Last month.
>> Okay. Okay. So, motion to how about October 2nd? Motion to approve the October 2nd minutes. You have a second. Second. Discussion.
No discussion. All those in favor? Okay. Next item. Okay. Status update on development plan for the veteran wall and veterans park. You already reviewed the draft renderings. The only question I have is
we approved $700 payment for the architect for Mr. Julio Brea. architect. Um, any what's the status on that window? >> I don't have anything. I actually have a question here from Isabella. Has Bill spoken to Jeremy about the Veterans Monument renderings? I need some form of
receipt or invoice for the $700. >> We sent her a W9. You need it more than W9? >> I think this has invoice though. Invoice or receipt? >> Okay. So, I'll get an invoice from him. >> Okay. >> All right. So, no worries. So, we sent him We sent you a W9, but you also need an invoice. Okay. No worries.
>> You're going to send us an invoice? No, he is. >> Oh, yeah. Yeah, but you'll get >> Yes. >> Okay. >> And I did talk Jeremy very quickly on the uh the park, but I also talked to the town manager and I I laid out with the town manager the phases that we're
going to be doing and he's comfortable with it. He knows right now that now we have the rendering. What we're going to do is create like briefing packets in order to, you know, be able to solicit sponsors as well as provide briefing
information to uh federal, state, and county legislators in order for them to be able to present something in order to get uhation fun. >> Yeah. >> So, can we use can we use the grants department?
>> We are and that's what Ed recommended. Ed actually told me to get with the grants people as well, but I still need to put that briefing package together so they can attach it to the grant request, you know, so and the briefing package basically kind of laying out the little history of town and then the pictures of
what we're trying to do. In that way, you know, we we give her the ammunition to actually get approved because I all things with brands especially or legislations if you can show them something, you know, they're getting a bunch of these
requests and the minute they can see a picture and see something that's looks like it's done and looks like they know what they're doing, boom, they're going to approve that one, you know. So, that's what I'm trying to do is make sure we have all our stuff um locked and loaded and ready to go and that way
people just are looking at the pictures going, "Wow, this is great." Approved, you know, so I'll get that to them. But yeah, we're moving right along. So, that's fine. Once we collect the money, we can, you know, we can move to probably, you know, once we get enough to enough money where
Jeremy's comfortable no to actually allow the money we already collect to be used for the the planning, you know, the actual drafting of the plan. Then, uh, we'll move that phase three and then Russ will happen. It's going to take time, you know, it's like Austin, it
takes time. All right. Um, reindeer run plan. Um, the only any updates and >> we're making a lot of money, but I feel like this is going to be an update.
>> Vote for something. >> Laser tag. >> So, vote for the laser tag. >> That's the next item. Yeah. >> Okay. Well, quick question for you guys. Um, scholarship recipient Sam Bernal. She's going to be in New York December 13th and wants to take a picture with the
committee with the ceremonial check. So asking if the committee is okay with uh the recipient joining the Thursday, December 4th meeting at 6:30 p.m. to take a picture with you. >> Sure. I have to bring the ceremonial chat. >> You have to bring the chat. >> Bring the chat. >> We'll just write on the back of Okay,
perfect. Thank you. >> I'll bring the ceremonial chat. Yeah, no worries. So, I think really the only update was you got few more a few more sponsors and we beat last year's total as well. >> Yep. We're at um 47,000 um pledged right
now and collected 345 and last year we had 455. So, love to get to 3,000. If anybody still knows some sponsors that want to knock us over that mark, just a couple more and we'd be over 50,000. Um we do have a little less expense this year. We're um putting out a couple
things and one of the new sponsors is going to pay for the goodie bags. So, that's going to not come out of the budget, which will leave us with a better with more net for our our benefactors of this year's uh run. Um I wanted to just see if the town can
report back to the committee the social media plan. We have we approved $2,000 budget there, so I'd love to start really um using it if not used already. >> Yeah. I don't know if they have already if I'm being completely honest but I just sent her an email now letting her know like not sure if you guys have
started but if not please make sure it gets used for this upcoming month which is really when most people sign up anyways. >> Yes. And if uh if we need to like I think maybe last couple years we pivoted back to my marketing people and they did it and did all that optimization.
They'll do it on my I just had them open up a landing page on my website and they'll start doing our stuff too to to like I guess do the SEO stuff on it and push it out as far as they can. >> Yeah. I I don't know the specifics. I just know that with that that means that they're going to go on through like
Facebook, Instagram. Yeah. Okay. >> Okay. Um, item number two is the laser tag cost approval >> for the rain. >> Last year's >> last year was 500, but when we were looking at it for a mental health task
force, it gone up to 600. >> I know, but I think it's cuz they have sharp lasers. Um, but uh >> yeah, I would approve 700 to my suggestion, too. So, I make a motion to
approve uh up to $700 for laser tag. >> Second. >> And if you recall, we had it last year and it did a great job of keeping all the young runners because usually they disappear to go to Burger King because that's what young runner runners can do.
You can do bird. But the laser tag did a good job keeping them. Yes, officer. Did you guys go through um family food trucks for that >> for? Yes. Oscar? Oscar? Yeah. >> Okay.

Yeah. All right. Next item is the Veterans Casino Night at Pace High School. That's moving along pretty well. Um, we got some great sponsors so far, too.
And hopefully we'll get a few more. Um, just for everyone's idea, you know, basically we're just kind of facilitating at the Veterans Committee, kind of helping. That's the Knights Columbus American Legion and we all know they do a lot of great things in town and they do a lot of great things for
veterans and they took the piss house orphans and you know unaccompanied immigrants children. He had fishing thing um and that was just wonderful. So that's moving right along. Okay, new business. The afteraction report on the
parade. First of all, I want to thank uh my vice chair Larry for, you know, taking the reigns and everybody else here and the King Tana family. Publicly thank them, the police, everyone, you know, the staff is and Elizabeth
Isabella um who are basically the only people you see from the Miami uh Miami Lakes uh town, you know, government except the elected officials on that day. Um, and I thought the parade was wonderful.
I thought it went really smooth. Um, I I was honored to be the grand marshall. Um, I still um it was overwhelming and it was really quite an honor. It really was quite an honor. Um,
I enjoyed it all. Um, and it was an honor to speak about all I talked about you Ed in my speech. I heard good. >> Yeah. I told him, you know, the master of hurting cats, >> you know, in our meetings here. So, and
it's true, you know, and I I decided, you know, when they made me the grand marshall that really I don't want to talk about past service. I want to talk about everybody here who's uh continues to serve in our patriots and just do so many great things.
>> Brandon has a bless. So, Yeah. Thank god we don't have to have Larry MC things anymore for a while. >> He did great. >> He called me the grandmaster. >> Did he call you the grandmaster? >> Yeah. >> His biggest His biggest blooper might
have been Fred's last name. >> Yes. Yes. You've only known him for 20 years. And you butchered you butchered his last name. Yeah. >> Get him on my >> like Grandmaster Flash. That's all >> Perna. >> Anyway, but it was a great parade.
>> Good times. >> Serna. I know. And uh the other thing was I really enjoyed um the golf carts. You know, they all decorated them patriotically. >> And I think I was jumping around with the uh Rob Officer Amador.
for Debbie Amador. Um, it's getting to the point where there's so few people watching the parade because everybody's in it. The whole town is in the parade. And I think that's kind of awesome because they decorated like crazy and they had a great time. >> So, I don't care if the whole >> one little concern of that.
>> One concern. Yes. I want to talk about because I had so many people. >> Yeah. Yeah. You told me about it. Yes. Yes. >> What happened? >> Yeah. There was one and and and this is the main thing I've I've been telling everybody. Listen, don't worry about it. It's just you you guys don't want to lose the golf cart uh privilege, right?
I mean, it's a parade. You can do whatever you want. But >> there was a one of the golf carts, there was a dad that had his son that looked like he was probably 10 years old driving one of the carts. A >> bunch of people were like, "What is this? This is a complaint that we have and this guy was doing it." So that
that's the only reason why I mention it because >> well I think what you know what we'll do is we'll clearly state to them that it has to be an adult driver who's licensed you know I mean >> that dad has uh whoever that is he has zero situational awareness you know I mean he's doing it in front of I don't
know how many police officers 30 >> you know and the whole town so you know you guys are kind >> driving he was on top of that but still he was >> yeah in control. >> He's very he's very he's very lucky that you guys are very understanding cuz you
know he could have been cited but we will make sure they understand and that they should not be doing that. So >> the the other issue was the uh throwing candy from >> well it said not to throw anything. We there was no throwing supposed to happen
for meals. Yes, we read it. We were going to throw like crazy. We didn't throw. >> We were ready to throw shirts. >> The ground companies from the pickup truck. They were throwing candy. >> Oh, and fortunately we gave a ride to the young Marines. >> They were throwing candy
>> with the U rubber >> Oh. >> using as a slingshot >> and one of them just went right by >> and another one fell on with a baby. >> Wow. >> And I kept going tell them, "Stop. Don't
do that. Stop. Don't do that." And I was there plumbing. They're going to be doing like 600 miles. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> They listen. I mean, tell them to stop. I mean, they're >> they're kids.
>> So, I mean, we gota we got to probably make sure we folks, >> you know, the thing is this parade was so close to Halloween, too, you know. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> And so people were like full of candy, tons of candy left over. So they were
like, "This is a way to get rid of it, you know." So >> you know, we got to consider that next time we have it within three or four days of Halloween. We may have that issue. So um >> I'd like to thank Larry for letting us
use his fire truck. >> It was really fun. Everybody loved it. Lazro loved it. >> You didn't see it? >> Yeah. I saw the pig. He was smiling. >> He was so happy. >> The puppet guy with the pig. >> Yeah, he was really He loved it. When he saw it, he goes, "Do I get to sit there?" I'm like, "That's your spot."
>> Yeah. Yeah. That was great. Use it again >> for the 5K. We'll put it in the middle >> with the little car. >> Are we going to do the middle with the other? Are we going to get the big cars? Are you going to bring those fun things? Those those crazy >> um >> military vehicles that you brought last year,
>> the tactical vehicles? Yes. haven't they changed commanding offs and they had a relation with the past commanding off so I got to go visit the new one provide a cigar. >> Can you try do you do you need cigar donations? >> No no I still got some time to get those you know the tactical vehicles for the reindeer run.

>> that reminds me. >> Oh, really? That little dog that used to drive the little car. >> Well, she still does, but she's in Daytona. She's not here anymore. >> I still talk to her. I'll ask her, but I don't think she'll come. >> Um, >> pickle be now that we're talking about things that go near those that burn feet, right? The cards.
