Brook Park council unanimously passed a resolution June 17 naming the municipal amphitheater for the Brook Park Boosters in recognition of decades of volunteer service, scholarships and event support.
Mayor Edward A. Orcutt described the boosters as "the backbone of Brook Park," and council and booster leaders said the volunteer group has run fundraising events, supported families, and contributed to annual community programs. The resolution recites the organization's origins in the 1960s and lists longtime activities including home days, concerts and scholarships; the resolution directs the clerk to provide a certified copy to the boosters and authorized the naming immediately as an emergency measure.
The boosters' president and members accepted the resolution and thanked council. Council members praised the group for sustained volunteerism; Councilman Jim Mancini, who has worked with boosters for many years, called the organization "solid" and said it often does essential work that goes unseen.
Action: council adopted Resolution No. 17‑2025 to name the amphitheater after the Brook Park Boosters and authorized a future formal presentation and plaque.
