00:00:06.240 --> 00:00:08.839
<v Speaker 1>K one, the one you dress, and then with the

4
00:00:08.839 --> 00:00:12.039
<v Speaker 1>City of Dewey, we have Laurie hearing with us. How

5
00:00:12.039 --> 00:00:12.720
<v Speaker 1>you doing, Louri?

6
00:00:13.640 --> 00:00:14.359
<v Speaker 2>Hello Tom?

7
00:00:14.599 --> 00:00:17.120
<v Speaker 1>Hey, warm enough for you?

8
00:00:17.280 --> 00:00:19.519
<v Speaker 2>Oh so warm. I'm out in the baby suit taking

9
00:00:19.519 --> 00:00:20.760
<v Speaker 2>a dip in the pond at the moment.

10
00:00:20.879 --> 00:00:24.679
<v Speaker 1>Well yeah, bye, right, Okay, Well.

11
00:00:24.600 --> 00:00:26.280
<v Speaker 2>At least I can call in and talk about just

12
00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:28.120
<v Speaker 2>a little bit of something that's really important to us

13
00:00:28.199 --> 00:00:29.000
<v Speaker 2>going on in Dewey.

14
00:00:29.160 --> 00:00:29.760
<v Speaker 1>Let's do that.

15
00:00:30.280 --> 00:00:32.799
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Well, we are still going to talk about the

16
00:00:32.840 --> 00:00:35.520
<v Speaker 2>Friends of Dewey Park. Yeah, the nonprofit that I'm part of.

17
00:00:36.079 --> 00:00:37.880
<v Speaker 2>The first cool thing is, since I can't come in

18
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:41.679
<v Speaker 2>and show you the cool sign, we have a fundraiser

19
00:00:41.719 --> 00:00:44.359
<v Speaker 2>going on with our local Simple Simons here in Dewey.

20
00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:46.679
<v Speaker 2>Once a month we are going to She's going to

21
00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:50.280
<v Speaker 2>donate one day the profits parsh portion of the prophets

22
00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:53.960
<v Speaker 2>to the Friends of Dewey Park. Okay, so that's pretty cool.

23
00:00:53.960 --> 00:00:56.719
<v Speaker 2>So it's the Simple Simon's here in Dewey, and like

24
00:00:56.719 --> 00:00:58.640
<v Speaker 2>I said all day that that she'll donate part of

25
00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:02.759
<v Speaker 2>the proceeds and say that we're having this Valentine's Day Fridays,

26
00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:06.680
<v Speaker 2>so everybody go in, eat up some pizza and then

27
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:09.840
<v Speaker 2>help get this part going for all of us. So

28
00:01:09.879 --> 00:01:11.519
<v Speaker 2>that's the cool part. That's the main thing we really

29
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:13.079
<v Speaker 2>wanted to talk about today to get that out on

30
00:01:13.120 --> 00:01:15.040
<v Speaker 2>the radio that everybody showed up to Simple Simon's on

31
00:01:15.079 --> 00:01:18.079
<v Speaker 2>Friday to help out to the park, but also wanted

32
00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:20.680
<v Speaker 2>to talk about how we have a visit from Kristen

33
00:01:20.840 --> 00:01:24.560
<v Speaker 2>Siefred from the ACS. It was to map out all

34
00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:27.079
<v Speaker 2>the placement of all the toys that we're going to

35
00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:28.840
<v Speaker 2>be putting in the park and you know, of course

36
00:01:28.879 --> 00:01:31.000
<v Speaker 2>the flagpole, we're putting in all kinds of cool stuff.

37
00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:32.799
<v Speaker 2>So she came in the other day and we had

38
00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:36.200
<v Speaker 2>some a good time figuring out really really bringing it

39
00:01:36.280 --> 00:01:37.959
<v Speaker 2>to an idea of what it's really going to look

40
00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:40.280
<v Speaker 2>like and you know how it's going to come into fruition.

41
00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:43.599
<v Speaker 2>We got the bathroom still going, those are up and

42
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:45.760
<v Speaker 2>we're getting ready to put the roof on, but thanks

43
00:01:45.760 --> 00:01:48.000
<v Speaker 2>to this wonderful weather, so we're going to probably put

44
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:49.719
<v Speaker 2>a pause on that, but those that's going to be

45
00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:53.480
<v Speaker 2>seen as most likely by the time Stray Cats in May.

46
00:01:54.079 --> 00:01:58.159
<v Speaker 2>So you're telling me that, Rosie, so everybody will have

47
00:01:58.200 --> 00:02:01.439
<v Speaker 2>a bathroom and maybe stay longer. So that was a

48
00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:03.439
<v Speaker 2>pretty cool thing to hang out with her for a

49
00:02:03.480 --> 00:02:05.560
<v Speaker 2>few hours and just get that visual of how the

50
00:02:05.599 --> 00:02:10.560
<v Speaker 2>park's gonna win. But also we have raised the funds

51
00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:15.199
<v Speaker 2>to purchase our twelve foot climbing and Activity tower. It's

52
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:18.400
<v Speaker 2>this cool tower that it's going to be for all kids,

53
00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:21.800
<v Speaker 2>for the abilities that any kind of abilities. It's, like

54
00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:24.199
<v Speaker 2>I said, twelve feet, which is way bigger than me.

55
00:02:24.319 --> 00:02:26.840
<v Speaker 2>So I can't even even imagine how that's gonna look.

56
00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:29.639
<v Speaker 2>But it does have you know, all kinds of cool,

57
00:02:29.759 --> 00:02:31.639
<v Speaker 2>you know, fun parts to it, of course for all

58
00:02:31.639 --> 00:02:34.800
<v Speaker 2>inclusive children and anybody of ages that can go on it.

59
00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:37.039
<v Speaker 2>But what we really need to do, since we have

60
00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:39.639
<v Speaker 2>that the funds that we raised enough for that, now

61
00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:42.879
<v Speaker 2>we need to raise the funds to get this installed.

62
00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:45.360
<v Speaker 2>And believe it or not, it's it's a pretty penny

63
00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:48.639
<v Speaker 2>it's sixty thousand dollars. But I know that we can

64
00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:50.919
<v Speaker 2>get that going with all kinds of fundraisings that we're

65
00:02:50.919 --> 00:02:53.439
<v Speaker 2>doing and the help from the community to put this

66
00:02:53.439 --> 00:02:56.919
<v Speaker 2>this wonderful park in that will really just bring it,

67
00:02:57.039 --> 00:02:59.159
<v Speaker 2>bring all of Dewey back together right in the middle.

68
00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:01.719
<v Speaker 2>So when we have more these events and stuff, you

69
00:03:01.759 --> 00:03:05.319
<v Speaker 2>know it'll be especially with them. We have the food

70
00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:07.120
<v Speaker 2>truck park going on. It's a lot of stuff going

71
00:03:07.159 --> 00:03:09.039
<v Speaker 2>on in the park. And this is really weird calling

72
00:03:09.080 --> 00:03:11.159
<v Speaker 2>you in, Tom, I know it is, but.

73
00:03:11.479 --> 00:03:14.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, I can visualize how the park's will look

74
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:16.639
<v Speaker 1>here in just a few months, I really can, right.

75
00:03:16.520 --> 00:03:18.479
<v Speaker 2>And especially with all the bricks that we have, you know,

76
00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:20.120
<v Speaker 2>we're going to be adding those into the park that

77
00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:22.840
<v Speaker 2>we're selling, you know, all the member of member of bricks,

78
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:26.360
<v Speaker 2>and especially in addition to a huge flagpole that we're

79
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:28.120
<v Speaker 2>putting in that is going to be cool because it'll

80
00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:30.719
<v Speaker 2>also be our main focus for the tree lighting every

81
00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:34.159
<v Speaker 2>Christmas month, so it'll be it's going to really work out.

82
00:03:34.199 --> 00:03:36.120
<v Speaker 2>I just can't wait. We just we need a little

83
00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:39.479
<v Speaker 2>more help to get that one huge piece up installed,

84
00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:41.159
<v Speaker 2>and I think it'll just go from there.

85
00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:43.439
<v Speaker 1>I think you're right. I think it is. Now how

86
00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:46.560
<v Speaker 1>can people find out more about the Friends of Dewey

87
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:48.680
<v Speaker 1>Park and how can we get a hold of someone

88
00:03:48.759 --> 00:03:50.439
<v Speaker 1>so we can write a check if we so.

89
00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:53.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, definitely, we have a few places so We have

90
00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:55.840
<v Speaker 2>the Facebook. We have Friends of Dewey Parks on Facebook.

91
00:03:55.960 --> 00:03:59.120
<v Speaker 2>We also have a website Friends of Dewey Parks. We

92
00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:02.400
<v Speaker 2>also have me. You can call me No, you can

93
00:04:02.479 --> 00:04:05.479
<v Speaker 2>also call I believe. That's pretty much the best way

94
00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:07.400
<v Speaker 2>to get a hold of is through the Facebook or

95
00:04:07.439 --> 00:04:09.680
<v Speaker 2>the website and then go from there because then we

96
00:04:09.719 --> 00:04:11.080
<v Speaker 2>can get you to the appropriate people.

97
00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:14.680
<v Speaker 1>Well that sounds great. This is really Uh you got

98
00:04:14.680 --> 00:04:17.399
<v Speaker 1>me thinking spring summer and having fun.

99
00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:21.680
<v Speaker 2>And Dewey exactly. And then we also another perk. We

100
00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:25.720
<v Speaker 2>brought back the splash the splash pad. Oh so he

101
00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:27.639
<v Speaker 2>has a little A couple of years ago, during the drought,

102
00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:29.560
<v Speaker 2>you know, we had a we had to take that out.

103
00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:31.639
<v Speaker 2>But we have now brought it back in. So let's

104
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:34.000
<v Speaker 2>let's throw that some out. We will have a splash

105
00:04:34.040 --> 00:04:35.040
<v Speaker 2>pad in Dewy.

<v Speaker 1>That is so cool now.

107
00:04:37.519 --> 00:04:38.959
<v Speaker 2>I think that's gonna be pretty cool.
