Addi asked me to make some specific comments re: Children's Memorial Garden & the
adjacent, sloping Event Lawn.Addi is already aware of needs for plenty of electrical service, inorder to actually stage lawn
events.These outlets should be as close as possible, to the base of the sloping hill, where entertainers/
lecturers, etc would set up, without the need for long extension chords.Last year they set up on bare ground, at base of hill, but it would be nice to have some kind of
staging area, only slightly above ground, so kids can see & participate ( raised platform? )There is one small tree on the lower event lawn, next to CMG, which blocks views from the
hillside. This will needto be moved.
We have a great need for a utility shack to store our volunteer tools & suppies ( perhaps couldbe located adjacent to the handicap parking spots ). Right now everything is just left outside.
The pavers @ CMG have had some deteriation, at the edges & perhaps it could be repaired?We could use another rustic wood Children's Memorial Garden sign near the south entrance,
where most peple enter. Mitch told me these signs are made "in house."Can free plants, grass seed, enriched soil, weed spray, etc be made available? There has been
some discusion about downsizing CMG a little, but I cannot afford to buy these supplies.Thanks, PATRICK O.
PS. I could bring up many more items & I would be glad to meet any time to discuss.
