Community Pep Rally April 25
I’m Suzie Fromson, and I’m on the Parks and Recreation Board. I am also on the committee to build a spray park here in town. I want to officially invite you to the Community Pep Rally in the park on Monday April 25th from 1-4 PM.
This is the afternoon that Reader’s Digest will be here to present us with a $10,000 check for our 6th place win in the ‘We Hear You America’ contest. We don’t know exactly what to expect from Reader’s Digest, but it looks like they have a traveling RV that is touring the country and passing out checks to the top 10 cities from the contest. They have said that we will appear in an upcoming issue of the magazine.
Our plan is to get as big of a turnout as possible at this event to show off just how enthusiastic and supportive our community can be.
I hear that Kerry Kelly is planning to walk the Oakview kids over to the event. I have invited the other elementary schools, and we are hoping that some (or all!) of the middle school and high school kids could be involved as well, at least for a portion of the activities.
The plan is to have a series of performances in the band shell until the Reader’s Digest folks arrive. Ideally we might get the marching band, orchestra, choir, etc. to put on short performances. We have other volunteers talking to teachers about those details.
We welcome any ideas! Mainly I just wanted to inform you of the event and let you know that you are invited.
We hope to see you there,
Suzie Fromson
