It is formally to be known as "Silver Lake Village Fall hest" and will be held <br />October 15ri' from 3 to 9 p.m. (At this time we are even considering starting at 2 p.nn.) Th.e total <br />program is still being developed but will include events at the new amphitheater from 3-6 p.m. and <br />a stage to be set up probably on 39"' street for the 6 — 9 segment. We anticipate we will need street <br />closing around noon to allow for setup ofvendor booths (local merchants and others). <br />We have begun fund raising from all major players in this huge development and to a lesser extent <br />from the new merchants. We also have met with Len Pratt and received a commitment lion him to <br />help provide a "real community celebration." <br />In this regard we are asking St. Anthony Village to provide "in-kind" donations, specifically <br />necessary police and fire protection, public works help in closing streets, providing power if <br />necessary, and load of picnic tables to be set up opposite the main stage. We are also requesting <br />permission to set up booths on the sidewalk or street meas for vendors. <br />We are well aware of the City's involvement in the Silver Lake Village development, and we hope <br />that we can count on the City's participation in this celebration. <br />Sincerely, <br />Geor 11.
