Marsh Oaks update, film series and volunteer banquet highlighted by ARC
Summary
The committee heard a Marsh Oaks renovation update (interior expected complete by July, parking lot later), confirmed the film series screening May 28 and an awards/volunteer banquet for May 7, and discussed outreach tactics to promote programming.
The committee received updates on capital work and programming at Marsh Oaks and on several upcoming community events.
Staff member (S2) said Marsh Oaks’ interior renovation is expected to be finished in July, with parking‑lot improvements to follow; the committee will hold a centennial celebration on July 11 but delay a formal grand opening until exterior and garden work are complete. Staff also confirmed the next film series screening is May 28 (The Biggest Little Farm) and that the city obtained the license for that showing.
Staff member (S2) announced an appreciation banquet for volunteers set for Thursday, May 7 at 6 p.m.; the event is social and invitations will come from the city manager’s office. Committee members discussed outreach strategies to boost attendance for programs — printed flyers, QR codes, a farmers‑market table and better signage around town — and suggested staff incorporate marketing dollars into future efforts to increase awareness.
Why it matters: The Marsh Oaks timeline, film‑series schedule and volunteer banquet set near‑term dates for public events and capital work that will shape programming options for residents this summer and into the fall.
What’s next: Staff will offer a site‑visit option for committee members to review Marsh Oaks progress; staff will also coordinate marketing and notice plans for the May film series, the May 7 volunteer banquet and the July events.
