1. Social Distancing Events

• Commission will create a hashtag for the City so each neighborhood can
share their social distancing events with the City.
• Discussion about a chalk event with prizes was brought up. This could be a
way to engage youth and families to participate.
• An alternative idea for Ice Cream Social was discussed. Ice Cream Social
could include ice cream sandwiches or other prewrapped ice cream
assortments. Old fashion races or activities that allow distancing can also be
used. City Council will determine at a later date whether or not to hold the
Ice Cream Social.

the final version to the City Council Meeting.
