Pre-RFPSupplies & MaterialsDetected May 12, 2026

The May 12, 2026 Park Board agenda calls for approval of a T‑shirt and hat design to sell at the July 3rd Independence Day event. This suggests the city intends to produce branded merchandise for on-site sales or fundraising. Specific vendors are not named and the agenda only references design approval, implying that sourcing for apparel production and possibly point-of-sale logistics may still be open. Apparel and promo suppliers could assist with design refinement, printing, inventory planning, and fulfillment aligned with the event schedule.

Merchandise appears tied specifically to the July 3, 2026 Independence Day celebration.
