Committee schedules field meetings, maps parking and handicap areas; seeks volunteers

The committee confirmed an August signage meeting and an early-August field meeting to finalize parking lanes, handicap access and volunteer assignments; volunteers from local churches and high-school students were mentioned as available to staff parking and setup. Committee members also discussed numbering or naming parking areas (upper field/lower field) to aid volunteers and police and asked the mapping volunteer to prepare an overlay map for police and parking teams.

Why it matters: final field layout determines accessibility for handicapped attendees, volunteer assignments and staging for parade vehicles. The committee prioritized identifying volunteers for morning setup and for shifts during the event, and agreed to label field zones clearly for police and volunteers. Members also coordinated golf-cart availability for parade duties and post-parade field operations.
