Rosemead Park in conjunction with the City's activities.
This year the 4`h of July falls on Tuesday. The carnival vendor, Blash Shows, Inc., has been
scheduled to operate five (5) days, Friday, June 30th - Tuesday, July 4, 2000. Attached for review
and consideration is an agreement with Blash Shows, Inc., that would provide for the five day
carnival.
Again, it is proposed that we charge each adult $ 3.00, that comes through the gates, for the
City's 4`h July/City Anniversary Celebration (July 4, 2000). As in the past, children, under 18 yers
of age will get in for free.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Rosemead City Council authorize the execution of the Agreement by
the Mayor as well as approve the $ 3.00 admission charge for adults on Tuesday, July 4, 2000.
