Continuing the closure of the Farmer's Market 1 rnore block, frorn Diamond to California Avenue. " We are planning a Family Fun DaylYard Sale. We would need the street for the band to play and possibly for some games or other activity. We will be using the front of the school for our yard sale. We will be featuring our Band and Drill Team that day. We are hoping to have a Science Fair, Art Fair, Sidewalk Chalk J..rt.display and a Continental Breakfast. This event is stili in the early stages and it has not all been planned as of yet. I wanted to get the street closure OK'd before it gets too late. I feel this would be great for the community and for the school. People from the school will go to the Farmer's Market and people from the Market can cruise down to the school I spoke to Garland Roberson, whom I work for, and he seerned to think it was a pretty good idea. I also have approval from our Principal, Dr. Klatt. I can be reached most mornings at Sullivan's Paints (446-6163) or fax me at (626/357-7050.) My address and home phone number is on the letterhead.
