President Bari Neff called the meeting to order.
2. Welcome & Introductions
President Bari Neff welcomed everyone and introduced Robin King, the mother of the late
Parker King. Mrs. King gave a brief history of Parker and why they wanted to donation to
Parks and Recreation. She explained that they wanted to donate towards a basketball
shooting gun for the SportsPlex along with a sign, and they also want to purchase a sign
for the SPSC field sponsorship. These signs would be there for 6 years and then they would
reconvene after that duration. The board felt that this would be a beautiful way to honor
his memory. Director Jones and the board would like to see the signs up forever not just
for the 6 years. Aaron Panton made a motion to keep the signs up permanently and Bari
Neff seconded that. Motion passed. Mr. Panton would like to see the Play 4 Parker logo
branded on the basketball shooting gun, or have a plaque for a memory wall. Director
Jones would like to discuss these options at a later date.
