Hi Everyone!

A recap

I'd like to do a recap of the day and get your thoughts on what worked and where we can do better next time.

What worked & what didn't

What worked:

Lori's organizational skills:-)
Planning far enough in advance
The collaboration amongst the volunteers
Police involvement (canine, horses, THEM!)
The Explorers
Fire involvement - the truck and the shower and THEM
Clowns - face painting and baloons
Neighborhood Services - Roberto, Albert (recycle information)
Jumpies were a big hit
Food - hot dogs, nachos, snow cones, cotton candy and drinks
Jerry's map of the neighborhood was way cool
Lori's sign, "What will I do to improve my neighborhood"

Where can we improve:
Volunteer scheduling - We may want to talk about scheduling volunteers for 1 hour shifts during the event. Have scheduled volunteer set-up and clean-up lists.
More pop-ups for shade
Better sound equipment
