Meeting Minutes
October 2 , 1989
City Hall
Those present: Dorff, Neilson, Jacobsen, Alford, Bergeland,
Graham, Lee, Roen, Harris, Graffunder, Nyquist, Countryman,
Splinter, LaCrosse.
CORRECTION TO MINUTES: Lee reported the 1989 installment to the
City should be $2 , 270. There was a motion by Jacobsen, seconded
by Harris to approve the minutes as corrected.
FINANCIAL REPORT: Lee reported a balance of $2, 962 . The
treasurer' s report was approved.
On behalf of the City Council, Nyquist made a presentation
recognizing the hard work Alford and Quenroe have given to Earle
Brown Days and the community.
• ASSIGNMENT OF CHAIR POSITIONS:
a) Antique Show - Special events committee
b) Craft Show - Special events committee
C) Flea Market - Special events committee
d) Turtle Races - Harris. Bergeland said they only charge
$100 for transportation. They don't give out prizes.
However, it could be organized any way we want.
e) Miss Brooklyn Center - no chair yet. Graham will get
some information, including costs, by the next meeting.
f) Talent Show - Neilson
g) Carnival - Bergeland & LaCrosse. Graffunder will assist
with contract. We cannot use BCHS. May be able to use
the property just north of Earle Brown Towers.
h) Parade - no chair yet. Dorff asked Splinter if the City
would have someone who could do it. Splinter said the
problem with that is it becomes a City event rather than
a community event. Splinter will think about it and
report to the committee at the next meeting. LaCrosse
will send a notice requesting a parade chairperson to the
Post and the City newsletter.
i) Car Show - Nerburn
j ) Street Dance - Jacobsen
k) Junior Royalty - Graham
1) Ambassadors - Cohen, with assistance from Dorff. Some
• of the junior royalty parents may be interested in
helping.
-2-
m) Publicity - LaCrosse. Harris said she is interested in
helping.
n) Banners/Signs - Dorff
o) Ice Cream Social - Kaehler
P) Buttons - no chair yet. Dorff said he still has $20
coming in. Graham will check with junior royalty parents
to see if anyone is interested.
OLD BUSINESS:
a) Hide-A-Key - It was decided to delete the hide-a-key
because of the lack of communication between the Earle
Brown Days committee and the Historical Society.
They could still have it but it shouldn't be advertised
as an EBD event.
b) Celebrate Minnesota 1990 - LaCrosse asked how far we
wanted to get involved with this. There were no
suggestions.
Alford said Ernie McArther might be interested in
planning a pageant or play with an historical theme.
NEW BUSINESS: •
a) Teen Activity - Neilson said contests work. Could maybe
charge, give prizes. Volleyball is also successful.
b) Vice-chair - It' s a good idea to have someone work with
Bergeland for this year and take over as chair for 1991.
C) Horseshoe Tournament
d) Contest for the greatest fishing story--Harris.
Bergeland asked her to put some ideas together and bring
to next meeting.
NEXT MEETING: Monday, November 6, 7 : 30 a.m. , City Hall Council
Chambers.
Adjourn.
Respectfully Submitted,
Sue LaCrosse
City Liaison
