From the meeting
The recreation committee discussed the Chestnut Festival, including an afternoon band, tent rental and flooring, and a request for $3,000 from the fire company for fireworks. The band was listed as Whiskey Lips at $300, and the polka band was still awaiting confirmation. These are small event-spend signals, but the agenda does not show a formal award or vendor contract.
The practical follow-up is on event services and rental needs.
