about 25 people thank you should be really good any any additions deletions and referrals um Gary so want to talk about the bricks off on we talked about the U Memorial just for the order business if we're going to add something about could be replaced many of us completely eras completely erase were they was the family members like they purchase those bricks was that how they work the ones here yeah no we when we first started it was $100 it was a posted and like a postcard it looked like um and we just anybody that wanted to purchase one would purchas they have to be be but I think with either because of what they're using Put The Greening for the brush they just went out because they were printed on R I don't think they were engraved yeah yeah they very yeah but next time those need to be seal somehow and then don't use any y so is there something you want us to do is there a motion like you want to present that go public runs it public works or Parks or Recreation be Parks it's a it's a facility we can add it to the order business it'll be quick thing to address because we've already brought it up to the facility staff so so I mean it'll [Music] be we want a motion for something we trying to get something done here Gary what you propos yes a motion to because it's only requir money to you made a motion motion that we see on some prices and cost to involve in the project yeah I think we should first identify the cost y first ify costs and then see if we have the funding to support it so there's a motion on the table seconded by pedr to identify the cost to replace those bricks any discussion okay all in favor I that pass um and on the staff side I would I would recommend that uh in the order phiness that the committee report because the committee goes

I'm going to donate it I'll have it done um the uh veterans vegetable victory garden the town really wants a super detailed plan and that's okay you know I just haven't had a chance to get to them you know so I'm going to do a five paragraph order you're going to get annexes you're going to get dependencies I hope you enjoy [Laughter] it you know so I'm not kidding I'm going to do a five paragraph order with d is yeah you know that way they can say okay wow that's um scholarship update do we have anything anyone yes got um and I just want to say maybe next time we let the process play out because I think sometimes we we see like no submissions one submission and we got so we have seven right now it technically closes up tomorrow MH um I mean 7 great um once we once the deadline is finished which would be 5:00 p.m. tomorrow I'll send it to the committee because I'm under the assumption that you guys are going to be the ones that want to verify the make sure well you can pre-screen stuff for us like make sure they make the minimum qualifications of being a mi leaks resident all that stuff you know yeah I have and I have it all I have all seven scan because I I don't want to have to sit there and do eight at once I've been doing it at they've come in right and so so all SS they're mind Lakes residents and students they make they make the prerequisites I think uh just for level this is just supplemental because we set it up that if you qualify you get it um six of them are from actual veterans one of them is the child of an active duty member so oh cool and we have we have grandchildren we have uh children themselves you know there there's a good mix of it nice so and veterans themselves they said yeah okay they you say they're actual some of them are veterans or themselves well some some of them are children children of active duty children of active duty members children of veterans grandchildren of veterans so there's a there's yeah um I will say I got a couple phone calls of people that Liv on the cusp of the boundaries of the town the and to to be clear this isn't you know oh we should have thought about it the committee did think about it yeah um but I don't know if it's because you know PSN we would generally consider it like my mix family but tells me that we have a population out there that we can serve that's just information I I wanted to give you guys because I think do you know what schools are coming from there's Goldman there are uh a bunch of University kids are actively involved in universities that are children of veterans so we have college so better that big check made that way have something to show and remember we want to tie this into the 2024 India run maybe have like a presentation these are these are the the seven students that benefited from name for them but you know the future you know the future of myates veterans and Military Appreciation so that'll be finalized tomorrow awesome that's really good news yes that is amazing news all right military Banner replacement where we at yeah also ready to go out uh we needed a vote because Gary uh let me know about some Banner that maybe pulled out of a rotation or not rotation it's not hung up completely and it didn't why Gary why are we taking banners out no longer Miss so they were at one and no I'm here so the town more because they're supposed to be I can see that happening if we're out of space and out of like we're we have a waiting list but right now we don't and we're trying to fill all of myam EX strive I I would say those this is going to be an update for you um and there are some that that they have no families like I know one is doesn't have anything okay so um if the committee did want to approve that because we didn't feel like it was something that we could just not have come to a vote um even if you guys did vote to pull those out we we wouldn't do it for this year because well I guess yeah let me ask the question I mean do we have the space to hang them off yes yeah we do and were they at one time Miami Lakes residents yeah I mean if they've been in the system they I think me I kind of like the fact that it becomes like a living Memorial to you know we have a vice admiral up there those those will be printed this year yeah you guys can and I I get the sentiment that you guys are not going to approve pulling them out but if you did it would be for next year I feel like this and I sorry I feel like this kind of procedure of point out is something that the council should look at right um because well you know eventually start running out of space start running space we have a waight list then then you know we have to we have to probably come up with you know priority of what we pull off for you know and it'll probably be somebody who's passed away and has no family minor LS you know what I mean and when then we'll probably you know the next category will be you know I I want to save those who have family mulates you know those who have you know had a business Miami Leakes and no longer do business Miami Le remember that's one of the categories you know what I mean those who are member of the American Legion but they live in PSN and you know and they're no longer with us and you know you know we'll slowly we'll come up with a priority list of who will be removed if we ever get to a shortage but we don't have to work on that now can we find now how many maximum we can we can hang yeah we've been doing that because it we share4 with the education advisory dinners uh The Graduate diners and fantastically successful year this year8 um and it's usually like 40 high 30s yeah cing on the uh you know they put you talking about the The Graduate the 202 graduate the parents pay for those right that's a money Mak for the to oh no no we we we even out we even out yeah we have okay all right oh no just in case you yeah the topic of come to space has come up we do have the space for it but it's just I guess a policy to consider going forward do you know what the deadline is for the student once oh it it pass April 26 we just and when is our right no no that's been that's been we we've still been accepting uh we we open it up and made a motion to have it be Onis Bas but we have you know of course we have toit risor at time so we we still effectively have deadlines um but what is our is our deadline before the students one is it the same one uh so the programs run currently I think it's going to I think they end at the same time because right now I've been finalizing the the information the dates to go on at the photos okay and so after this meeting or probably while you guys were discussing I'll send the message to the printer so go take care of it's 109 once we have the invoices I'll get with on the frad and for the V one budget minus start going up right before Memorial I don't know if it's before or after I think I I [Music] think is after veterans is uninstall after veteran the bedrooms would are removed yeah um let's talk about a presentation ceremony once I get that big check and they can crank it out pretty quickly because I had one made for the American Legion for us uh to use person some donations will'll be giv American us code um so the town meeting is May 14th I'm going to try to shoot for May 14th um the town council meeting so we can do that U presentation and I know Gary you got your check you deposited right yeah so thank you very much Town check been deposited into American lean account you know so I appreciate that and uh so just so we can put on you know when to do that presentation of stuff right before the town council meeting so we can get on you know in the queue because I know there's few of those things they do and I will yeah you want to be there sure Tuesday the 14th yeah also in the counc it's it's going to be prior to the 6m meeting uh well the meeting at 6:30 the presentation they try to do it at 6 before 6 so hopefully yeah the proclamation will be during the actual meeting but this is before and it we'll be quick you know we'll be we'll be brief we'll be brilliant we'll be gone so but I think it'll be good for us as the veterans committee to be presenting a check $10,000 to the town to put a memorial well so to the American Legion Post Yeah the legion one for sure the staff is still a little it's a little weird veterans committee getting the town money because it's just an internal mment I know I and we already had a check presentation with headquarter giving us money like it's kind it's already something that's kind of been done yeah I know I know okay so we'll do American leing yeah for that one and maybe what's the next meeting the Le you gota be there Gary what time morning I can make it and what if the U talking about the other presentation for what B what we talking about uh he's talkinging about the the council meeting oh okay like the you need to be you need to be there May 14th May 14th mhm you're representing American Legion you can be or maybe say about other members too just so it's not just Committee Member Legion members better leg members bring some other Legion members sure we do that leave a good picture okay new business Memorial Day somewhere along the line the binder for Memorial Day went somewhere it's right here all right so I am not going to be here for Memorial Day I attending a wedding at laning Michigan but I basically have everything you need to conduct the ceremony is in there so whoever's going to be the MC include the entire sprp um what are you going to say so what we got to figure out right now is those moving parts that we don't control totally um well we need someone to do color guard so Honor Guard can we use a guide from town Miami Lakes police officer sh yeah so let's ask you know officer uh first thing is of course let's figure out what day we're going to do it on um yeah just a little little detail there a little background I had a little bit of a concern with um since it's a Federal holiday the Staffing questions that I had because um you know were pretty much a bunch of old guys and young lady and so the concern about not having enough manpower to bring everything out not having staff available since the THD holiday we got younger guys now too but but it's here it w't be here I'll be in the middle of the ocean but it's twofold it's that but Al you my my I was told it wouldn't be a patori my only thing is I still think it should be a ceremony that's moved it back inside as it had been in years past because moving the tables and chairs and tents out to the field as much as we like to say the the volunteerism would come through I feel like sometimes we get just stuck in that heat not not enough people are BR out chairs we can't reliably rely on janitorial because they're they're busy maintaining the park and that's regardless of if it's on Monday or Sunday um Saturday I think is out of the question they have a Friday a program going on in the morning at that time so my opinion is or my suggestion rather is we can have it that Monday on the day of Memorial Day in Mary Collins we have the chairs we can bring in the Statue because it's right 10t away in storage we have tables for any reception or yeah the flags are there the flags are there and I think it avoids a lot ofada of of you know what weather May look like our volunteers and be there because if it's in if it's inside it's really no no problem the chairs already inside the tables are inside so you recommend we do it on the ACT Memorial Day on Memorial Day in inside now I still have to get clarification from Parks because there's on scheduled I think it's yoga and taii you have to check it because but if it's a Federal holiday I don't know if that's still something that's happening no ideally it's not and Mary Collins are going to do yoga and taii yeah and in the big room in the big room they have it's scheduled in the morning I I still want that clarification of if it's going to be going which Monday act actual day that we schedu the event for what time do we do it at it historically it's been 11 I think I think I think there's just like there is an overlap though we would need a little bit of time because it's it's to prepare the statue put some bun material the tables get the chairs set up and using Memorial Day is a thing that's celebrated in the morning correct yeah suggesting he was suggesting that the ceremony kick off at 11 can start off we can you know what do you think lar got name well the 111 if we did it 11 I'm just thinking you know last year we had a picnic afterwards remember Gary Legion we tried yeah yeah it was really nice because more day we kind of associate with you we celebrate and we honor the dead and of course the uh will we be able to do that again this year can the uh American Legion sponsor the barbecue then we have to go outside it's it's tough because they have to get funds I mean after after the sermon that's a we need some to me it was it was well received last year well well that was a I can ask can use come in for 50 people yeah me ask I just give you know something simp when Barbe you mean the food that was brought okay I'm up Pavilion and I don't know no no no that's why I say initially then you have to go outside no this we can stay inside yeah that's my recommendation keep it Monday the holiday all right and do do it at 11 o' okay so uh let's make a motion for it to be on Monday Le day what day exact May 27th at 11 a.m. how are we broadcasting it to town residents let me get this motion done first yeah um and Okay so motion on table for the 27th to do the ceremony in Mary Collin Center at 11 yeah is there a second on that motion second second by Pedro all those in favor William would you think about maybe fish sandwiches yeah I think so no you know last time you know we only had for like 15 20 people and we said to make it yeah I mean it wasac it's cheaper to do the tray than do theand do the tray do the tray of food were good I think it was Pork yeah [Music] ask no no no like how are we letting people they can attend oh like it'll be on our calendar on our social medias I needed a date before we started push out but and also we're going to push it out to the American Legion really the audience the target audience for me tends to be V yeah you know it's work it's not workday it but you know a lot of people Monday 11 a.m. people who want to show up will show up I me that go for any event that's like not news but um we'll get it into the Laker we already talked to them about our everything up until June okay now we so we have we have the date we have the time we have the location can you make a sign that says the ceremonies inside so they don't not happening the I've already I have the draft of the event slot and I have the photo we're going to use we're going to ask officer Amador to provide the honor guard correct and Taps the trumpet player um you I gave you um Joshua's contact I that you no you I think you asked for something else was for the burial ofac whose remains were found 82 years lat you the World War II [Music] yeah the the Army took it thanks the Army actually brought their own they they treated him as if he had died on active Beauty even though he did die on active Beauty 82 years ago and New Guinea fighting the Japanese was an amazing that's where there yeah don't go there all right so yeah for Taps um Can someone please contact Mr Guzman yes thank you Jud and um are we going to have someone who sings the national an the singer I used to deal with Brianna she just went to University of Georgia so she's you sing yeah about the uh Bier what's that Biol player we used for sep 11 for the I don't know I don't know who he is I don't have his [Music] contact all right then someone say arrange for violin National an i and then the last thing we need and we'll probably do it the way we did it last time we just draft people who show up yes um veterans reading each Congressional Medal of Honor site can I can I can I jump in on that a little bit sure we we we started in your absence last week we started to talk a little bit about you know what we would do in your absence oh and the one of the things that we thought was that Gary would be our MC If he if he still wants to do that yeah and we have a pretty good script it's short I think it's to the point and and then I thought that we would we would at the the American Legion meeting on Saturday we would ask a representative from each service to correspond with the winners is the American Legion meeting this Saturday next next next Saturday right and we would and then and this way we could give them the uh script that some people are excellent readers they can just move right along with it quickly sounds but other people you give it to them the last minute this doesn't come out SM yeah this way they can start practice a little bit and it'll be it'll be smooth and then the other thing was that um I wanted to personal I may uh if you would give me the same thing that you had last year on the um oh the battle the battle I that I read that during the that point oh the Battlefield Battle yeah yeah Battlefield so um bill sent me the citations that's what it's called right citations yes and I I already made the program the bones of it um so I can send over the the citation so they can search and one thing Jonathan with the the get some Bunning material to put on the tables in front and remember the uh like we did at the previous ceremonies do we have that Bunning material do we need to buy some I brought some personally last that was for the rectangular for the bell ringing right yeah uh I I went out and I got some last time I gave it away to another organization so you I'll get it again with us you want me to bring water yes cases well it'll be inside though still what was last year and then and then last whatever we did last itself in in the m center will you help me get that out ahead of time not and we won't drop it on my finger next we won't drop it on my finger I can't you put your finger do all right I hold it was your purple heart event congratulations yeah purple more um the re what happened with the re last year the re yeah what happened was yeah it got got lost because WR it went a wrong address it was the city of was the town of haia the Women's Club OFA yeah Women's garding Club of haa and it went to the wrong address so hopefully it'll go to the right address who was a point of contact I have no idea it was I think you called him the last time I know probably did however memor ising me already probably have it on my CV contacts I look for it I'll have a a stand for it um yeah and hopefully it'll show up you know and if it doesn't um bring a dog tag because we just walk the dog tag to the to the battlefield cross you know and and then you describe what the battle field crosses and what the dog tags mean because you know I'm sure you have been in your units but we would put we would have a battlefield cross set up in our headquarters building every dy I one and every one every single one we lost we were just hanging on the pistol brick hanging on the pistol brip you know each dog tag you know that yeah we you did you did an awesome job last year the entire ceremony I think that was probably the most listened to the most heart portion all c yeah I think because you know once you like you know Second Marine Division um we just there was just so many dog tags that we actually set up two battes because the other the pistol grip was full with like five you know I don't know 500 there was one other thing that's synonymous with Memorial day that we kind of go light on but every Memorial Day ceremony I've been through my entire life I've been through a lot of them they always pass out the poppies the fake poppies and uh it's just just it's it's very symbolic to Memorial Day and that you can buy them online at Amazon and that's I mean I know the American Legion used to give them out and they would do donations you go like hey you know people you know it was it was one of these volunteer donations you're going to get a poppy you give a dollar you give one cent nothing you know what I mean it was one of these things you know so I don't know if the American Legion wants to do that you know there put some cans there and we just pass out if anybody wants to put money in the can they can put M have the can yeah so we got we got do we got thepp you order poppies yeah it's probably we're not talking a lot of money probably I have to order Nows so we got food should we say 11:30 or we should got it at 11:00 the ceremony starts at 11 I would have it have it there at 11 so it gets into the setup and it's ready to go yeah the ceremony starts at 11 right so yeah yeah that way they know they yeah early or any of the mayor any the town officials councilmen mayor now that we have a DAT I mean they they yeah let us know ahead of time if they're going to speak we can you know we can figure them in yeah I'm sure the mayor's going to want to say something state county so I'm sure you know what we'll do is we'll put them if he wants to speak put them before the Congressional Medal of Honor reg you know what I mean yeah I'm I'm sure the new council member will welcome I'm sure he won't be opposed to it this is our last meeting before that event that's why we one thing I don't want to do is I don't want to see what I heard last in you know the 9/11 ceremony where they're all basically saying I was in fifth when 911 happened that was I remember seeing news in high school I mean I'm not making you know that's you know we put them on the spot when they really have anything to say system that you have Council that speaking of sound system the fender the the good sound system out commission for the entire town no we have really not a good sound system really isn't good at all that's just in general I know I know the committee loved that system the one that we bought for for 911 what I mean the one that only one once out of five events yes and now it's now it's broken yes not that's you mean it wasn't broken those four other times it didn't work the no it was just impossible to find and now we find it and it's the stands are are missing so we can the podium wait wait so the that's the only that's wrong that the stands are missing they're rounded units so if you try to lay it down well regardless we're indoors we can protect to us somebody Don to us okay that's let's talk about now we got we got the apps secured we have um the food being worked on we have the national anthem violinist let's see I what she says you know um Guzman and if he doesn't answer I need start going to Goldman I feel people and uh I'll see if I can find busy but they're so busy if we we don't have the wreath we'll do the dog tag I think the dog certain things for it never um [Music] the so that's when we did the we kind of impr promp to did the dog pack okay so now as far as so the event starts at 11 so setup I guess will be about 10: it's all indoors so it should be pretty quick so folks show we have a huge event at our gym where we honor a hero named murf it's like a big popular event so I I always give the big speech so I'll be late I'll be doing murf and then coming right into the what do you do for Mur maybe you do something do you know what the murf is yeah Murphy the metal honor right yeah cross it's a CrossFit exercise maybe as a as a the fil safe I mentioned if the programs are still running on Monday for some reason I would say the opt to do it on the Sunday I know that change of schedules and I know that means we don't technically still have an official date but let's have a priority for that Monday like I said you know s wouldn't be acceptable it just it would not be acceptable I agre I mean there's no Memorial like it's like celebrating Christmas the day after Memorial days Memorial Day be disrespectful to the veterans if we have any other time how angry how angry would the yoga and the Pilates people be if they say Hey listen we had to cancel your event because the Memorial Day event going I think it happens early like super early my mom used to go to the yoga so I'm pretty sure it [Music] happen my assumption is it should be canceled but with Public Safety she need to go to that not Che it two so two options you know one find out if there's a conflict and if there is a conflict notify them that their events have been canceled go them to go outside yeah please we're doing the two m Michael Lieutenant Michael Murphy who got not aie Murphy he got honor and he was a movie star but he survived then Michael Murphy was na Ste they named a Mur after but I'll be I'll be coming in at like you're going to do full Mur oh yeah under good for you there impressive all right um make sure you use some deing to Freedom R freedom is that yeah okay yeah that's what you want to call it okay someone else will let you know what you can anyway okay moving right along um the committee report is there any other issues dealing with the Memorial Day we got the date we got the time we got the location and contact the reath is doing contacting the Taps Pedro's Chan caning national anthem and the food and when we have our Legion meeting we will find people who going to be doing the readings of the Congressional M okay and they are printed in large print to make it easier it's funny the one you picked for the Army at our last meeting uh Bill nickach where he volunteer to breathing yeah I knew he would all right so uh meeting on

about all the events that are upcoming yeah yeah including 911 weing 911 or Public Safety doing 91 that's what we discussing is Nancy has anybody contacted Nancy from I I think you may need to speak with Nancy again yeah she's concerned about the budget aspect and I told her that I transferred my entire I told her the whole committee meeting I give her the heads up I I are still actively working on it uh kind of in this void between our committees um having it at the fire station I know we talked about having it out here maybe having it at the fire station that'll be a better is the manager still having his quinting meetings with all committee chairs one's the next one yes he has I already brought up Mee okay yeah it was brought up it was brought up hesitate some reason yeah so yeah I think we I and I spoke about that this morning actually about the fire station I think it could be interesting one's the next public safety committee meeting are you the Le one for that committee too all right so upcoming event we have n patri day 911 and we have veterans we apologize that you have to be on our committee all right anything else that needs to be mentioned I can I can send you the next okay so i' like to make a motion that we approve the following topics the $10,000 being used to set up the memorial at the veteran Park the seven scholarships for uh 20 uh $2300 each uh the banners being reprinted and hung up and the upcoming events dealing with Patriot Day and Veterans Day and assuming that Patriot Day does not and I'll even mention it it doesn't take get taken over by uh Public Safety their next meeting is May all right so that motion is on table anybody second second one second by Pedro all those in favor of those being the items to be discussed uh I think last point is budget officially we have to have our budget submitted by the end of this month but we don't need I think I think we should just submit to what we had last year so let's just submit the same thing they never approve it anyway because we fund raise so much that we don't we don't cost the talent at sent we make the sound what we did last year remember was I mean we didn't get more money but we had more accounts now like we have a Memorial Day account yeah we have line num so maybe we can put money in the 911 on the Patriot Day thing and then we'll let's make a motion to vote it out that we don't do it anymore and give it to them with money yeah has no money for it has a line item and it has no money in it that's the problem at at the coordinating meeting I told her right because I knew that budget had I knew that money she goes she goes well do I get the budget and I go yes plus an extra in my pocket and she goes what's the budget I go zero and then Ed Peterman starts laughing yeah it's zero and I go you made a dollar so I mean yeah so there is no budget it's just a line it for the 91 so all right folks uh anything else motion to a jury all in favor you very
