allow the Laurel Park Beautification Committee to proceed with
the construction of the shelter to put the supporting poles and

The Laurel Garden Club asked permission to extend its garden
area at Fireman's Park closer to the Chief Joseph statue. Members
of the group will meet with Jim Worthington to better layout the
extension plan. They also requested the installation of a
watering system in some areas of the park and to replace a portion
of the hedge that borders the South edge of the park. Plantings
would be donated from members' gardens. The requests were taken
under advisement to be discussed at the next meeting.
The Little League and the American Legion baseball teams
would like to work together to run the concession stand in Thomson
Park. Alice Branstetter and Charles Peaton, plus one more
representative from each group, would work together to manage
the stand. They would like to run the stand from 5:00 p.m.
until after the games end.beginning April 25th until about

each day. No action was taken by the Committee at this time
on the proposal.
