Doesn't believe it <br /> has to be linked to the July fourth holiday and liked the energy it brings to <br /> downtown. <br /> Commissioner Loidolt didn't attend due to being out of town and stressed that we <br /> always reference Elk RiverFest.Would like a different date. Fireworks should stay on <br /> July fourth. What do businesses think? <br /> Commissioner Soltvedt didn't attend and echoed Commissioner Loidolt's statement. <br /> Would changing the date benefit the businesses or not,it is nice to highlight the <br /> businesses and park. Downtown and Furniture and Things Community Event <br /> Center would be good option if bad weather or to highlight it. <br /> Commissioner Niziolek stated that the fireworks should be on fourth of July, either <br /> do both on the fourth or separate them. Encourage the downtown businesses to <br /> participate in event. Idea to use Orono for families,could connect with a running <br /> event,with a Main St Mile race. <br /> Chair Williams thought it was more spread out and liked the different day idea and <br /> splitting the event for families and Sips on Main.Like fireworks on July fourth. <br /> Consider Furniture and Things Community Event Center and its role. <br /> POWEREI BY <br /> NATURE _ <br />
