NEW BUSINESS:
1. National Night Out – Sergeant Jesse Pearse stated that there will be a National Night Out this year, despite COVID-19. Social distancing will have to be practiced during the event but Sergeant Pearse suggested that we spread the event out throughout the Park. This year the Municipal Parking lot, the Baseball diamond, the Pickle Ball courts, and the field will all be utilized to keep social distancing in place. The Village President will reach out to the Cherry Valley library to see if they would like to have a table at the event like they did last year, as well as ask if the Village could use their sound system and the pickle ball rackets. Sergeant Pearse was given permission to buy a new pop up on behalf of the Village to use for this event and others. Scott Kramer will provide his sound system for music as well as give pickle ball lessons. Jill Wedig will order the shirts for the kick ball game and will bring the white board for the prizes to written down on.
