Town schedules May clean-up, May 9 Bike Rodeo and Sullivan Daze activities
Summary
Sullivan Parks and Rec set a May 2 parks clean-up, organized a May 9 Bike Rodeo with donated helmets and gift cards, and advanced planning for Sullivan Daze including vendor recruitment and arts demonstrations.
Sullivan Parks and Recreation outlined several near-term community events at the April 3 meeting. The committee scheduled a Rec Center parks clean-up for May 2 with landscaping to begin at 9 a.m. and asked volunteers to staff two information tables; Tracy's Seafood was listed as a food-donation contact.
Bonnie Sparks is organizing a Bike Rodeo for May 9; minutes show Alex Souza and Misty Gleason committed to assist. The committee recorded a $100 donation from Walmart earmarked for helmets and several $5 gift cards from Dick's Sporting Goods to support door prizes. Event logistics include a Flanders Bay Food Truck and a child car-seat fitting station staffed by Mike and Michelle Pinkham.
Planning for Sullivan Daze is underway: Misty Gleason is recruiting vendors and Bonnie Sparks is exploring Maine Office of Tourism grant support of $2,500–$5,000 for the event. Proposed additions to Sullivan Daze include artisan demonstration areas, a 5K race, an expanded food-truck presence, a Kid Zone and live music in two-hour sets.
The minutes assign follow-up tasks for promotional materials and volunteer coordination but record no contracted vendors or confirmed grant awards.
