of people to work on the event with the beautification team. Food prep will be taken care of by Jill
Kahn. Brats, hot dogs, chips, soda, beer, wine have already been purchased. The beach house will

Stephanie to work with Angela on placement of the raft. Stephanie would like a picture as to where
the raft is placed so she can show it to the lifeguards. Lifeguards will be asked to make sure the raft
is in the correct location each day. Angela will get back to Stephanie.
Stephanie has 2 more people wanting to be lifeguards. They still need to get certified. Their schedule
