RIBBON CUTTING SEGMENT: After the band plays final song the high <br />school chorus (on risers) will sing two patriotic songs(last song <br />should be the National Anthem) An additional set of risers will <br />be in place for judges, law enforcement; all elected officials, <br />others? MATERIALS NEEDED - 2 SETS OF RISERS b INDENTIFICATION <br />•TAG• FOR THOSE TO BE SEATED ON RISERS. <br />At the ribbon - Chairman of the County Commission, <br />Judges representative, Bar Association representative, keynote <br />speaker?, others? DECISION NEEDED - WHO ELSE AT RIBBON? <br />Speeches - Chairman of County Commission thanks the <br />parade participants and chorus, acknowledges the seated <br />dignitaries on risers (not individually but as a group), <br />introduce the people standing with him - Judges representative, <br />Bar Association representative then Keynote speaker?(this is the <br />committee's decision as to who or no outside speaker - como <br />st�gges��eas-�Re�t�de-3aae�,-ReRe�--dB-Seaate�sr-4t1�-B�st��e�= <br />etiie�s?-eF-Re-era�side-speal�eP� --ReyF►ete-sl�et��d-be-ae-mese-tkaa-� <br />*}Rutesl COMMITTEE SPEAKER RECOMMENDATION - JANET RENO <br />Actual ribbon cutting.- Chairman of County Commission <br />should say a short (3 minute) dedication speech and with the <br />other ribbon participants holding in a "symbolic link" Chairman <br />of County Commission cuts the ribbon. (Hold for at least 30 <br />seconds after cutting for photo opportunities.) After ribbon <br />cutting Chairman should thank the public for attending and <br />encourage them to take advantage of tours and information being <br />given inside until the building closes at 2pm (if the Heritage <br />Center wants to be open they may have activities there which need <br />to be announced - info on this as we go along). MATERIALS NEEDED <br />- A REALLY BIG RIBBON (hopefully donated) and a PRINTED PROGRAM <br />(hopefully donated) listing events and, perhaps, a brief "history <br />of when the old courthouse was built, etc and how the new <br />courthouse was planned and funded. Do we have an Indian River <br />County Seal? Program could also include the departments in the <br />courthouse which will be open for tours. PERSONNEL NEEDED - <br />RIBBON CUTTING COORDINATOR (Perhaps Chamber?) <br />TOUR OF BUILDING: Immediately following the verbal invitation to <br />tour the building by Chairman of County commission a nice touch <br />would be to have the high school chorus sing additional patriotic <br />song(s) if they wish. Departments inside the courthouse may want <br />to be open with materials for distribution and staff. PERSONNEL <br />NEEDED - TOUR COORDINATOR(Possibly Jeff Barton?). JEFF BARTON HAS <br />AGREED TO COORDINATE THE TOURS. CONSENSUS OF THE COMMITTEE WAS <br />TO TRY AND COORDINATE SONGS OR MUSICAL PRESENTATIONS IN FRONT OF <br />THE COURTHOUSE THROUGHOUT THE TOUR TIME - CHAMBER WILL WORK ON <br />THIS. <br />NOTE: Chamber will be happy to do press releases, take names <br />for parade and help work on a printed program as well as work on <br />any other areas as requested. <br />SUGGESTION: Allow Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts to set up drink <br />booths as a fund raiser if they want? If not, __food and drinks <br />might be sold at Heritage Center - a captive audience and parade <br />participants should be good customers. <br />2V <br />50, 91.
