Homecoming needs volunteers
PAGE 2. THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 14, 1995.
Businesspeople meet
discuss promotions
The initial planning is underway
though those organizing events for
Brussels homecoming are still
looking for ideas and volunteers.
The next meeting of the commit-
tee is set for June 21, at 7:30 at the
Ark and member Donna White says
new people with new directions are
always welcome.
It is hoped the position of chair
will be filled by June 21 with the
two vice-chairs posts filled and 10
subgroups organized soon, says
White.
With the parade committee
already set, bands considered and
the possibility of a theme talked
over, the group thought more ideas
might include things such as family
events for young and old, activities
at the dam, food for thought, a
school reunion and methods to pre-
sell tickets yet leave plenty of room
for the casual visitor.
Letters will be sent to all local
organizations and clubs asking for
volunteers to sit on the various
committees, which will meet next
in October or November.
Anyone with some great ideas or
interested in becoming involved as
a volunteer is welcome to gather at
the Ark and help plan Brussels'
Homecoming.
It wasn't much fun for drivers,
but members of the Brussels busi-
ness community agreed the June 3
community yard sale was definitely
a success.
At a luncheon meeting last
Thursday, businesspeople dis-
cussed the event and planned for
future promotions.
Noting that business was boom-
ing the day of the sale, which co-
incided with an annual slowpitch
tournament as well, local restauran-
ter John Harrison said, "I don't
know what we would have done
had the sun been shining."
Other people remarked on the
traffic congestion in the downtown
core and a suggestion was made
that perhaps next year the down-
town core could be blocked off so
the businesses would be able to get
more involved through sidewalk
sales or other planned activities.
The group are planning ahead to
promote the village during the
upcoming moto-cross races in
August. Also, an idea from Keith
Mulvey regarding a village Christ-
mas promotion stirred quite a bit of
enthusiasm from those present,
who agreed to meet in two weeks
to discuss it further.
Sorry,
our mistake!
Deputy Fire Chief Don Crawford
was incorrectly identified in the
Brussels Fire Department com-
memorative issue.
We apologize for the error.
The next meeting of the Brussels
businesspeople is at 7 a.m.,
Wednesday, June 28 at The Golden
Lantern.
Any businesspeople who are
interested are invited to attend.
