Summary
The committee approved the 2025 events calendar—including an Easter Extravaganza on April 4—and discussed logistics for vendor support, volunteers, and partnering with the chamber for vendor coordination and concessions.
The Parker Parks and Recreation Committee approved the 2025 schedule of community events and confirmed the Easter Extravaganza for Saturday, April 4.
Members reviewed key dates: Back to School Bash on July 27, Halloween on Oct. 31, a tree-lighting event in early December (committee discussed moving elements to create a larger daytime festival), a color run Jan. 17 and the Easter event on April 4. Committee members discussed vendor recruitment, donated resources (eggs, hand-washing station), volunteer stuffing parties for eggs and gifts, and coordination with the Parker Rotary and the chamber to manage vendors and concessions.
On the Easter event specifically, organizers said donations have produced roughly 4,000 eggs; volunteers and local groups such as FFA and River Church were listed as participants. The committee approved the dates by voice vote and instructed staff and partner organizations to proceed with outreach and logistics.
The committee also confirmed a ribbon-cutting ceremony (5:15 p.m.) for the Aaron Hillfield opening and noted upcoming Arbor Day planting logistics.
The motion to approve the event dates was moved, seconded and passed by voice vote; transcript records a voice vote but does not include a roll-call tally.
