I propose to raise $15,000-$20,000 from friends and family of Ray Adams (deceased) to give to the Parks Fund to be used as needed and in return the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board would name the overlook structure the "Ray Adams Memorial Overlook" or something similar with his name being a part. I have secured permission from his widow, Edythe, and two of his children, a son and a daughter, to raise the funds. Each of them will contribute toward the project. They have expressed deep appreciation for the potential honor of their husband and father. Ray Adams was a florist in Fayetteville for fifty years. He served on the Fayetteville School board for about twenty years and was president a number of those. He was active in many civic activities and was an active deacon of Fayetteville's First Baptist Church until his accidental death at the age of eighty-nine He was a long time member of the Rotary Club and served as District Governor. His family once owned property on which now are located the V.A. Hospital and Woodland Jr. High School. He is remembered by many of the "old-timers' as having surprised them with a bouquet of beautiful flowers on occasion. He loved gardening, raising flowers and growing plants. When he died, he had a number of "projects" laid out to complete. He was always working to make a difference in the lives and the environment of those around him. I can think of no better memorial thon to link his name with such a beautiful park as the Sequoyah Gardens. I propose no timetable for the projects completion, no plans for the building of the structure, no agenda at all except to provide some funding with which the Parks Department can continue making a difference in the lives of the citizens of Fayetteville in the name of RAY ADAMS. • 07/08/99 10:39 $501 665 2577 KINGSTON SCHOOL TIMETABLE Contact Mrs. Adams for permission - January, 1999 Discuss with parks department - February, 1999 Develop the idea and present to family - Summer 1999 Present request to parks board - July, 1999 Press release, letter campaign - July -November, 1999 Present funds to parks dept. 8& board - Dec.1999 411/ Work with Director and Mrs. Adams for wording on plaque or sign to be placed on or near the overlook Year 2000 Schedule a memorial dedication with Parks Department and Mrs. Adams upon completion.

Members Present: Ackerman, Alexander, Colwell, Eads, Luttrell, Shoulders, Stockland, Thiel Members Absent: Staff Present: Edmonston, Gulley, Nelson, Schuldt Guests Present: Morty Newmark, Hamsa Newmark Media Present: Jill Rohrback, Morning News Matt Wagner, Northwest Arkansas Times 1. Approval of PRAB June 21, 1999 meeting minutes MOTION: STOCKLAND/ALEXANDER The minutes from the June 21, 1999 Parks & Recreation Advisory Board regular meeting were approved as presented, 8-0-0. 2. Nominating Committee Report: O.E. Luttrell MOTION: Mr. Ackerman moved that nominations cease and Wade Colwell be nominated at Vice Chairman of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board by acclimation. Mr. Luttrell seconded the motion. The motion was approved 7-0-1. 3. Proposed 5 Year Capital Improvement Program: Mr. Ackerman said when the City Council decided to make Mt. Sequoyah Gardens a city park they agreed at that time to make site improvements so the land would be usable to develop. Mr. Ackerman said it was his understanding the City Council was willing to fund development of the property from general funds rather than park funds. Although it is uncertain whether they are still willing to do that, Mr. Ackerman suggested asking City Council to assist financially in this endeavor. Ms. Thiel said there was also an interest from the neighborhood to contribute to the development of the park and suggested the Facilities Committee meet with neighbors to discuss ideas. July 14, 1999 / Page 1 • PRAB Regular Meeting Morty Newmark spoke in support for the skateboard park. Mr. Newmark and his wife, Hamsa, have actively researched skateboard parks. Mr. Shoulders inquired about plans for a water park. Ms. Edmonston said it was a consensus of staff to develop something different than Siloam Springs or Springdale. She said a lot of their costs were in lap swimming; we have access to an indoor pool at the Youth Center, and there is community access to the University HPERD pool and Jones Center pool for lap swimming. The type of water park will have to be determined. Mr. Shoulders said he was glad we were looking at doing something different from surrounding communities. MOTION: Mr. Luttrell moved to accept staff's proposal and approve the 5 Year Capital Improvement Program as presented. Ms. Eads seconded the motion. The motion was approved unanimously, 8-0-0. 4.
