MEMORADUM
TO: Jerry Ruegemer, Recreation Superintendent
FROM: Mitch Johnson, Recreation Supervisor " "I
DATE: June 9, 2014 ovo
SUBJ: Approve Resolution Accepting 2014 Community Events
Sponsorship Donations from Area Businesses
PROPOSED MOTION:
"The City Council approves a resolution accepting these additional donations
totaling $4,000 from area businesses for the 2014 Community Events Sponsorship
Program."
Approval of this item requires a simple majority vote of the City Council.
Each year the city presents four community events: February Festival, Easter
Egg Candy Hunt, 0 of July Celebration, and Halloween Party. These events
have been long - standing traditions in our community. Residents have enjoyed
February Festival for twenty -one years, the Easter Egg Candy Hunt and 4h of
July Celebration for thirty -one years, and the Halloween Party for thirty years.
To date, $31,171 has been donated to the 2014 Community Events Sponsorship
Program in increments of $500 or more. Numerous smaller donations have also
been received bringing the total amount contributed to $36,285 to date.
The generosity and civic pride of our business community is one of the many
reasons why Chanhassen is a great place to live and raise a family. It is not
surprising that these types of partnerships were recognized when Chanhassen
was named one of the best places to live and raise a family in multiple
publications. All of the community events are made possible through generous
donations from the local business community.
RECOMMENDATION
It is staff's recommendation that the city council approve the attached resolution
accepting these additional donations totaling $4,000 from area businesses to
offset costs associated with the four community events.
