Subject: Re: Update as of today
Dear Bob:
Cyndi Lauper is 65K. She does a fantastic Show.
YOu also have Chaka Kahn now I got her for 50 K 0NAs 751<)
Packaged show: for 60 K: Michael McDonald and Aaron Carter
Michael McDonald 35K (He has a very hot CD now and can be routed at this price and is available for either
dates. He is in Atlanta on the 10th, so I got a good deal on him for you.
Aaaron Carter is 25K for the Teeny Boopers and would be a good opening act for you.
I think all three of these acts would work and would be a very exciting show anyone of them.
After your meeting, let me know who you want me to put a offer on and we get this wrapped up for you.
Good luck.

Proposal for F onnal Garden and Arbor in Founders Park
That a section of Founders Park be converted into a formal garden with shade trees,
walkways, water feature or fountain, flower beds, park benches, and pennanent tables
and benches for chess, checkers and domino games.
Also suggested is an arbor where orchids and bromeliads can be cul1ivated. The arbor can
serve as a center for a local orchid club.
Many snow-bird residents discard their orchid plants when they return to their northern
homes. They may be able to drop off their plants for care while they are gone and pick
them up when they return. The arbor may also be used by the comrr.unity school to teach
horticulture to youngsters.
