Future event Ideas - Kelly S
Karaoke Night? Pair with a date night?
On Stage (in the auditorium?)
Commons for younger kids to watch a movie
Date Night/Holiday Shopping?
Face painting, movies, concessions, games, inflatables, etc
Could do holiday crafts if around the holidays. (Lindsey)
For holiday shopping, if parents would be heading to Coral Ridge Mall, TE or OH would be on the way for CCE and Amana kids. (Kelly)
Summer-ish Carnival?
Face painting, Dunk Tank, Inflatables, etc.
The process would be the same. We need to ensure we’re not interrupting summer schedules for grounds work and other maintenance work.
Summer 2023 might be too soon. Look at this for summer 2024.
Would the bigger thrill be doing something at the high school? Could this draw kids from all over the district? (Lindsey)
RAGBRAI is coming through the Amana Colonies/Oxford on July 28th. Is there an opportunity to do a fundraising event while in town?
Peg forwarded the email with the info from the RAGBRAI and Oxford city sites to Quanda.
