To City Council Members,
I am writing in regards to the Fratellos 5. This event is in its 3rd year and is put on by Run Away
Shoes and the Fratellos Restaurant. The race will be held on April 3` 2010 at I0:00am.
The course will be run starting at Arboretum Dr in Front of Fratellos restaurant. It will proceed
to Rivermill Rd. and on the Wiouwash Trail. From there we will connect to Marine Dr. and turn
left onto West Wind Road. The race will continue on West Wind until it intersects with Sunset
Point Lane, at which point it will turn back on itself and follow the same route back to
Arboretum Dr. and end in front of Fratellos. This year we also wanted to discuss the possibilities
of use one lane of Algoma Blvd. (from Hwy 41 to Arboretum Dr.), if weather becomes a safety
concern.
We look forward to receiving your approval on the course on April 3` from 9:00 a.m. until 11:30
a.m.
Thanks

Dear City Council,
My naive is Ruth Welhouse and I'm your local representative from the Community
Blood Center. The Community Blood Center is your local sole blood provider and we
have been providing 100% of the blood products used at Mercy Medical Center since
September of 1995 and at Aurora Medical Center since July of 2003. We also provide
the blood products used in hospitals surrounding your community such as Berlin
Memorial Hospital, Ripon Medical Center, and Theda Clark Medical Center in Neenah.
The last four years, The Community Blood Center hosted a special event blood drive in
Opera mouse Square .called "Operation Donation ". In 2009, we recruited 54 blood
donors from area businesses as well as from community organizations to come down to
the square and help save lives right here in our community. Because this event was
overwhelmingly successful, we are looking to host the 5tb Annual event on June 17. We
would like to use the Opera House Square on June 17 from 8 a.m. - 7 p.m. (the blood
drive will run from 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. but we will need set -up and take down time).
We are hoping that you will allow us to park our bloodmobiles on Market Street
alongside the square, as well as to use the park area for our registration set -up and
reception area for donors.
Please contact me at (920) 560 -6653 with any questions or concerns regarding this
request. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,
