June 3, 1981 Park Board Minutes Page 3 <br />Carlson suggested having a hay ride back there. <br />Schmidt said there will be concessions. Nothing else will be <br />planned for the 4th. <br />Anderson said Bruce Marx of the Jaycees is trying to put to- <br />gether a dignitaries ride of Ramsey. County officials and legis- <br />lative people. Anderson said we should have someone there to <br />inform people of what is happening. <br />Gunderman asked each member to give their comments regarding <br />~aublicity of Long Lake site on the 4th and 5th. <br />Solberg liked the idea. Didn't want to conflict with other <br />activities. Maybe have a booth where people could get questions <br />answered. <br />Dahl said it was a good idea to get people in the site and a <br />feel for what the area is like. <br />Olson likes the idea of getting people back there.. Have people <br />posted at different areas to answer questions.. <br />Anderson thought perhaps both self-guided tours and guided tours <br />could be offered. <br />Carlson said he agreed with the walking tour because people could <br />get a better feel of the park. Prefers the. tour be guided so <br />rumors don't start as to what will be done with the park. Maybe <br />an informational flyer could be put together with a map. Some <br />transportation tour should be available for the handicapped. The <br />handicapped should know in advance that there will be facilities <br />available to them. <br />Van Hatters said he objects to motorized vehicles. He likes the <br />hay ride idea. <br />Gunderman. asked if .people will be dressed for these activities. <br />Most everyone agreed ,that people would dress casually. <br />Schmidt said there will be a plush car that will transport <br />dignitaries. Champagne and hors d' oeuvres will. be served: <br />in the car. <br />Van Hatters likes the idea of getting use out of the park .and <br />feels appreciation should be given to Bury for use of his property. <br />There is grand opportunity-for publicity. Should have a map if <br />nothing-else. Feels there should be a historical-map as well <br />describing where the Hipp's houlse was and Indidan artifacts. He. <br />is willing to contact someone in the non-motorized field to set <br />up rides. <br />Schmidt said the League of Women Voters has a slide presentation <br />of the history of New Brighton.. Someone may want. to set up a <br />booth to show slides. <br />
