on November 15th and that decorating would begin on November 19th. Rodne
concluded that the community trees would be up and ready for groups to decorate on
November 27th.
D. Entertainment
Mary Rodne distributed the entertainment schedule, and reported that most groups
would be performing 15-20 minutes. Discussion ensued. Amy Redfearn informed
Mary Rodne that she would need to personally contact the First Baptist Colleyville
group to confirm their performance at the event. Rodne added that she would contact
them and that the entertainment schedule could be changed to include their
performance, if needed.
E. Children’s Activities
Mary Rodne reported the game area would include eight holiday themed games in 10
x 10 tents. Rodne added that there would be several areas for photo opportunities.
Also, Rodne reported that Recreation staff would be heading the crafts area, which
will feature six different crafts. Additionally, Rodne stated that Library staff would be
organizing and staffing the cookie decorating activity and Santa’s store. It was noted
that Photos with Santa would be located next to the information tent in a very visible
area. Rodne concluded that other entertainment would include inflatable rides for
both young and older kids, face painting, a petting zoo, and pony rides.
F. Photos with Santa
Tom Westerman confirmed that the Colleyville Lions Club was ready to do the photos
with Santa again this year. Mary Rodne noted that a 20 x 20 tent would be rented
this year to provide more space for this activity.
G. Food Vendors
Mary Rodne announced that six food and two dessert trucks would be participating as
food vendors at the event and added that Scooters Coffee & Yogurt had confirmed
that they would be selling hot beverages, coffee, hot chocolate and apple cider.
Rodne concluded that a kettle corn vendor had also requested to be added to the
line-up. Discussion ensued. Consensus of the committee was that kettle corn would
enhance the food selection at the event, and the vendor should be invited to
participate.
H. Sponsorship/Donations
Mary Rodne reported that Baylor Regional Medical Center at Grapevine had
contributed a $2,500 sponsorship for the Holly Colley event.

National Charity League (NCL). Additionally, it was suggested that Second Saturday,
a mother-son volunteer group, be contacted, if additional volunteer help is needed.
