The Kolb Park Dedication was on a larger scale then Stagecoach
Park, however staff was surprised by the lack of participation by
the neighboring residents in the activities.
Staff has developed the following preliminary ideas for the
dedication of Dolan Park:
Date - Saturday in late June or July
Program - Ribbon Cutting, Speeches/Introduction
Activities - Basketball Shoot, Water Games, Entertainment,
Distribute Park Watch Information
Refreshments - Ice Cream Social, Cold Drinks
With regards to the date, staff recommends. that we plan around
Little League as well as the 4th of July weekend. Additionally
if we want to utilize Recreation Leaders, we need to coordinate
with playground activities.
In conclusion, it is recommended that the Commission review the
preliminary plans made by staff, determine a date as well as an
alternate, and provide staff with input on plans for the Dolan
Park Dedication.
