STEPHANIE SWEANY: Stephanie Sweany of 123 17th Street NW, Apartment 6. I live in Frank Morris’ ward. (Chuckles) Uh, I’m here today to talk a little bit about Canton Kindness Coalition. We were here a couple weeks ago and we wanted to stop by. This is my friend, Becky, and my friend, Barb, who are also a part of Canton Kindness. We wanted to thank the Mayor for his wonderful Proclamation that he gave us. Uh, this week is national random acts of kindness week, so we’ll be out there performing acts of kindness all throughout the week. Uh, you can find those on our Facebook and other social media if you’re interested in partaking. Uh, but we have a huge day of kindness this Sunday, February 17th. We will be out at three different locations encouraging community members to engage in acts of kindness. Uh, we will be at the Akron Canton Regional Airport from noon to 2:00, and we are providing a lunch from SOL Pie Pizza to the furloughed TSA workers. We don’t know what’s going to happen with that so we’re gonna provide them some lunch, pizza and some snacks. From 2:00 to 4:00 Barb will be out at the library making cards for patients of Aultman Hospital. And then from 4:00 to 6:00 we will be out at Muggswigz Café right here downtown, and we’ll be taking donations for comfort carts for Aultman Hospital. So we wanted to just let everyone know that we had that going on. We would love to see Members of Council and anyone else participate. Uh, we’re just out here trying to make kindness contagious. It’s something simple that anyone can partake in, and we have quite a few opportunities this week to do that. We also wanted to spread some kindness to you at Council cause you guys work so hard every day, so we have some little candies for everybody that have our cards on them that you can check out all of our social media and just see what we have... have going on. Thanks so much. (Brief pause, background noise and voices) PRESIDENT SHERER: And Stephanie, you guys are... you guys are doing a great job. STEPHANIE SWEANY: Thank you.

PRESIDENT SHERER: Well, I’m sure if you would like to stick around after the Council meeting, I’m sure that the Council Members or Nate would be more than happy to talk to you. JAMES RIEHL: Okay.
