Committee votes to hold Senior Olympics at Veterans Park; availability must be confirmed
Summary
The Elder Affairs Committee voted to hold the Senior Olympics at Veterans Park (tentatively Oct. 3); members passed a motion by voice vote and asked staff to confirm park availability and finalize details with a subcommittee.
The Town of Miami Lakes Elder Affairs Committee voted on a motion to hold the Senior Olympics at Veterans Park after discussing possible October dates. Chair moved that the event be held at Veterans Park and a member seconded; the motion passed by voice vote.
Chair introduced the motion to designate Veterans Park as the venue and a member seconded it. After a short, unopposed discussion, the Chair called for the vote and members responded "Aye," and the Chair declared the motion passed. Committee members cautioned that the vote does not guarantee the venue’s availability; Speaker 3 noted staff must still check scheduling and field availability before the date is final.
The committee set tentative timing (morning start, around 7:30 a.m.) and assigned a subcommittee to finalize logistics, sponsorship layout (gold/silver/bronze tiers) and vendor arrangements. The committee also emphasized the need to confirm reservations and coordinate promotional materials and trophies.
Next steps: staff will check Veterans Park availability, the subcommittee will finalize sponsor packages and logistics, and the committee will reconvene as needed to confirm the date and arrangements.
