Present: Keith Lester, Councilmember Kay Lasman, Councilmember Dan Ryan, Sharon
Kephart, Margaret Sandberg, City Manager Curt Bogeny, Phil Cohen and Sue LaCrosse.
Fundraising Event
Committee members are asked to submit the names of those who should receive an invitation to
Sue LaCrosse. We will have donation forms available . It was suggested we have a sample
plaque that would say something like:
Brooklyn Center Centennial Memorial Amphitheater
1911-2011
“Your Name”
Curt Boganey asked if there would be value to having a trio providing live music at the event.
He will check with the other two musicians to see if they are available.
Online Auction
Sharon Kephart said the online auction is set up for three weeks and will run from March 25-
April 17 and end at the wedding dress show. She said there is a fee of $100 for setup of site and
the auction site will take that from the proceeds. At the live auction, people will be encouraged
to pay by check so we save money on credit card fees. Sharon Kephart and Brent Haugen will
meet on March 3 to take pictures of the items.
Photo Contest
The photo contest information is almost ready to go.
Other
Curt Boganey showed the committee the Centennial Celebration banner that was designed by the
same company that designed the ones on Bass Lake Road. There was a motion by Phil Cohen,
seconded by Sharon Kephart to approve the design for the banners. Motion carried. The cost
would be $6,000 for 44 banners.
Next Meeting
The next meeting is Wednesday, March 2 at 5:00 p.m.
Respectfully Submitted,
