reported that Palm Spring Air Museum will be bringing out little
airplanes for the kids & the Army is providing a climbing wall.

regarding 10,000 boards in the sand. Susie reported that it was only
a one day event (Saturday) and it would not be profitable for a

Ambassadors and see what they can come up with an idea to
incorporate the BID into the event. The Chamber is participating in
