ANY HIS OWN UPDATES. I HAVE A FEW COMMENTS. WE'VE BEEN REALLY BUSY. I DID GO TO THE PARKS MEETING HAD TO LEAVE EARLY FOR ANOTHER EVENT, BUT THEY WERE HEAD INVITED THE DIFFERENT ASSOCIATIONS IN TO SPEAK LIKE THE BASEBALL ON THE SOCCER IN THE FOOTBALL. TO SPEAK ABOUT.

YOUR NEEDS AND ANY CONCERNS AND JUST HOW THINGS WERE GOING WITH THEIR ORGANIZATIONS. YOU KNOW, THEY'RE STRUGGLING, TOO, WITH COVERT, BUT SEEMS LIKE MOST OF THEM WERE BACK ON TRACK AND GAVE REFUNDS WHEN THEY NEEDED TO GIVE REFUNDS. AND WE'RE GLAD TO DO THAT AND EXTENDED SEASONS AND WE'RE VERY THANKFUL TO THE PARKS DEPARTMENT FOR ALLOWING THEM TO. PLAYED KIND OF IN THE SUMMER RATHER THAN IN THE SPRING AND DO SOME THINGS LIKE THAT, AND. I THINK THEY HAVE. I THINK THAT'S A GOOD MEETING FOR THEM TO HAVE, AND I THINK THEY HAVE A GOOD CONNECTION WITH THOSE GROUPS GOING ON AND THE PERSON IN PARKS THAT'S IN CHARGE OF ALL THAT. MM HMM.

GROUP HERE. WE'VE BEEN REALLY, REALLY BUSY. WANTED TO THINK THAT MCKINNEY YOUNG PROFESSIONALS FOR ALLOWING ME TO DO A BEER STEIN THAT WAS OVER ON SATURDAY, AND I HOPE IT RAISED SOME GOOD MANY FOR EMBRACE TEXAS. BUT I WAS HAPPY TO GET TO THAT BEER SIGN FOR THEM. UM AND I THINK DAVID ACTUALLY RAN IN THEIR RACE. SO THANK YOU, DAVID. FOR DOING THIS TO BE CLEAR. I DID NOT RUN IN THE RACE. I'M NOT. IN THE SHAPE THAT I SHOULD BE IN RIGHT NOW TO BE RUNNING FIVE K'S, BUT I DID PARTICIPATE IN THEIR RAFFLE FOR OK, THE RACE I SORRY, HUH? WAS THE EMCEE FOR DRAWING THE TICKETS TICKETS? JUST LIVE VIDEO. SOMEBODY WOULD CALL ME OUT. GET ME GETTING THE RED PHONE RINGING. UM AND THANKS TO ALL OF US THAT ATTENDED THE COTTON GROVES GROUNDBREAKING. I THINK WE WERE ALL IN ATTENDANCE AND THAT WAS A GREAT. GREAT THING TO BE AT, AND EVEN THAT WAS A MESSY DAY TO GET TO BE A PART OF THAT, BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S GONNA BE A GREAT PROJECT FOR HABITAT FOR THE CITY AND MCKINNEY, AND IT SOUNDS LIKE A LOT OF OTHER COMMUNITIES THAT ARE INTERESTED IN DOING THAT, AND THEY'RE COMIN ALSO HMM.

THANK YOU TO DEBORAH AND DAVID FOR JOINING ME AT THE COMMUNITY LIFELINE EVENT. DID THAT TOGETHER, AND THAT WAS A REALLY NICE EVENT. YEAH. SO THANK YOU. FOR MEAN TO THE M E. F DAVID AND RICK AND MARY AND MYSELF AND A COUPLE OF SPOUSES AND. ACTUALLY GOT SECOND PLACE TRIVIA CONTEST FOR M E F DID NOT CHEAT IT ALL SO WAY DID A GREAT THING AND A GREAT JOB.

UM, AND THEN, LASTLY, JUST LIKE I MENTIONED BEFORE THIS PAST WEEKEND, WE ADOPTED THE SPOT, WHICH WAS BONNIE WINK. ENCOURAGE ALL OTHER BOARDS TO ADOPT A SPOT. WE'D ALSO BE INTERESTED IN SOME FRIENDLY COMPETITION AND LOOKING AT YOU KEEN IF WE WANTED TONTO. YOU

[00:10:01]

KNOW, SEE HOW MANY BAGS EACH BOARD COLLECTED, MAKE A LITTLE CONTEST OUT OF IT, BUT I THINK I THINK IT'S A REALLY GOOD THING TO DO SOME WORK WITH YOUR BOARD OUTSIDE OF JUST REGULAR BOARD WORK. AND A GOOD THING FOR THE COMMUNITY TO ADOPT A SPOTTED AND HELP. HELP. TWO EXTRA CLEAN UPS AROUND THE CITY. THINK IT'S THAT'S A GOOD EXAMPLE AND HOPEFULLY A GOOD EXAMPLE FOR A LOT OF OTHER ORGANIZATIONS. I THINK WE HAD TO SET RIGHT LONDON TO OTHER GROUPS APPROACH LINDA ASKING WHAT WE WERE DOING AND MAYBE HOW THEY COULD DO IT SO. I THINK IF YOU KNOW BOARDS IN THE CITY OR PEOPLE THAT ARE RECOGNIZING THE CITY CAN START DOING IT THAN OTHERS WILL RECOGNIZE IT ALSO, AND WE CAN GET ALL THOSE SPOTS ADOPTED. SO.

ALL FEAR ON LESS WEDNESDAY, MYSELF AND LINDEN AND MY THREE YEAR OLD NIECE. YEAH, WAY DID THE WALKABOUT DOWNTOWN TO PROMOTE BY MCKINNEY SPENDING MCKINNEY AND IT WAS REALLY GOOD FOR ME BECAUSE I WAS ABLE TO GO INTO SOME SHOPS THAT I HADN'T BEEN IN BEFORE AND TO GO. SO IT WAS REALLY, REALLY GREAT FOR ME. AND OF COURSE, MY NIECE GOT ALL THESE THINGS AND CANDY AND EVERYTHING. SO IT WAS REALLY FUN. IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL DAY AS WELL. SO I HOPE THAT. IN THIS SEASON, THE HOLIDAY SEASON THAT THESE BUSINESSES DOWNTOWN ARE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO PROSPER IN THESE KOBE TIMES AND SUSTAIN. I AM PRAYERFUL THAT WE WILL OVERCOME. ALL OF THIS IS. IS, UH, BOARD MEMBER BRADFORD. I SAID, YOU KNOW, WE'RE GRATEFUL FOR EVERYONE STILL STAYING. SAYING, UM JUST ON TOP OF IT. I MEAN, THE GOOD THING ABOUT THE ATTITUDES OF THE OWNERS WERE POSITIVE, AND THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE THAT THEY, SOME OF THEM SAY THEY HAD MISSED A BEAT. DOING THESE COCA TIME. SO AGAIN, THAT'S JUST A TESTAMENT TO THE CITIZENS OF MCKINNEY THAT ARE CONTINUING TO GO OUT AND SUPPORT THESE SMILES AND SMALL BUSINESSES IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA. SO IT WAS A GREAT GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR ME TO. SEE SOME STORES AND GOING TO SOME STORES AND SPEND SOME MONEY THAT I PROBABLY WOULDN'T SPEND ON WEDNESDAY. GREAT OPPORTUNITY. THANK YOU, LINDA FOR COORDINATING THAT. ONE OTHER ONE. WE ALL WENT. A LOT OF US WENT ON THE PARK'S TOUR OF THE DIFFERENT THINGS AND.

WE'RE VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT.

IT'S A GREAT FIRM. ARGUABLY MANY PEOPLE WOULD SAY THEY'RE THE BEST IN THE STATE.
