will ask Public Works for Barricades and traffic cones. Set-up will include placing the Shredding
company by the dumpsters in the back, Crud Cruiser in TownCenter parking lot along with the
Electronic recycling (map included). We should work on getting several more volunteers. I have asked
the boy scouts to assist, but we may want to ask other groups for assistance as well. In terms of
volunteers, we will need at least two at the Shredder, four to eight at the Crud Cruiser and a couple at
the electronic recycling station as well as several directing traffic. The poster is out on the
website, however let's make a call for volunteers as well through Facebook.

Agenda Item No: REGULAR ITEMS - C.
I. Subject:
Discuss and consider action to participate in the Trunk or Treat Event
II. Originated by:
Kelly Cooper, Director of Human Resources
III. Summary:
The Youth Advisory Council will be having a Trunk or Treat event on Saturday, October 24 beginning
at 5:00 p.m. The YAC is asking for groups to participate by providing a trunk with treats to distribute to
the children who will be trick or treating that evening. The event is two hours from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00
p.m. Then a movie will be shown in the TownCenter park beginning at 7:00-7:30 p.m.
This will be a fun time for the community and may be an excellent way for the board to talk about KKB,
our events and encourage volunteers to help or join the board.
The cost would be a few bags of candy and a KKB promotional item.
The board should vote to either approve or deny participation in the event and then discuss candy or
other items you'd like to distribute at during the event.
IV. Recommendation:
Approve
