the tennis courts. Identification is to be checked at the entrance with bracelets, security on
site includes the 6 ft. chain link fence surrounding the beer and wine area. There will be live
entertainment, several food vendors, an individual wing cook-off, and inflatables for the kids
and zoo animals and other kid's activities. The chamber has applied for liability insurance
certificate with the City of Canton and Park District being named as additional insured. When
the certificates are received Amanda will bring a copy to the City for record.

event permit application for the event contingent to getting the liability insurance certificate
from Billy's Tap and the Bistro.

for special events.
