Subcommittee discusses Mother's Day outreach, book-drive distribution and PTSA collaboration
Summary
Committee members agreed to staff a table at a Mother's Day market, distribute books from a town book drive and explore a future PTSA breakfast collaboration; logistics and volunteer sign-ups were assigned.
The Miami Lakes Events & Beautification Subcommittee discussed several community outreach items, including the town—s upcoming Mother's Day market presence, a book-drive distribution and possible collaboration on a PTSA breakfast.
Committee members confirmed they will staff a table at the market on the designated weekend (the organizer offered a two-hour slot, 10 a.m.-12 p.m.). Members volunteered to transport donated books and requested at least two people at the booth during the market. "I'll get the books," one committee member said, and the group agreed to arrange pickup or transport of heavy boxes in advance.
On broader outreach, members noted a neighboring initiative and suggested coordinating so residents are not confused by overlapping book drives. The committee also discussed a PTSA breakfast idea and agreed to add an agenda item to explore a town/PTSA collaborative breakfast in the future; that agenda addition was passed earlier in the meeting.
Next steps: staff will circulate logistical details for the Mother's Day table, identify volunteer coverage, and confirm drop-off instructions for the book drive. Committee members will coordinate with school contacts and local partners to avoid duplication of efforts and to publicize the activities through schools and town channels.
