7. Discussion/Action
A. Discussion/Update on Senior programs.
Senior Program was briefed by Ms. Herr. Ms. Herr stated that the sub-committee was working
with different organizations that offer senior programs. The sub-committee is also working with
the Cibolo YMCA concerning the Senior Program. The sub-committee would like to start small
and presented the committee two programs they were interested in starting. The first event
would be Bingo and they were looking at Niemietz Park under the overhang. The exact day of
the week and time have not been set. Suggestion was Bingo would need to be during the week
and during the daytime as Niemietz Park is so busy in the evening and weekends parking would
be difficult for the seniors. The second program would be"Meet the Council'. It was suggested
that that program would not occur to August that way the seniors could meet the candidates
running for office and also be briefed on the Charter Amendments. This would give them an
opportunity to ask questions. A suggestion was also made that they might want to check with
the Brooks of Cibolo a senior community that has open in Cibolo. They might have a place that
the seniors could meet. Ms. Herr also stated they would like to do an informal survey to see
what programs seniors would be interested in. We will continue to place this on the agenda for
the sub-committee to brief the entire group.
B. Discussion on upcoming events/activities for City.
Mr. Craighead briefed the committee on events coming up for the City of Cibolo. Summer
Nights will take place starting May 14 followed by June 11. These two dates will be a movie
with a food truck available for anyone wanting to purchase food or ice cream. The last two
dates will be July 16 and August 6. July 16 will have activities for the kids and the last date
will be water activities. Market Days will be on Main Street on May 22 and June 26 from 9am
to 1pm. They hope to have around 40 to 50 vendors. The committee agreed to setup a table
and do a couple surveys. One with seniors on activities they would like to see and another for
everyone on amenities they would like to see in the City Parks. Ms. Herr also brought up a
virtual event they would like to consider. Mr. Craighead stated that Ms. Pollok would need to
