   [00:00:48] Is Terri Moore here? [00:00:50] She is. [00:00:51] Oh, okay. [00:00:52] You're going to have a name tag that's got the right name on it this week. [00:00:56] Look at that. [00:00:57] All right. [00:00:58] In that case, I'll meet you at the podium. [00:01:22] This is a proclamation of the City of New Port Richey. [00:01:24] Whereas the U.S. House of Representatives has designated July as Parks and Recreation [00:01:28] Month, and whereas Parks and Recreation promotes health and wellness, improving the physical [00:01:33] and mental health of people who live near parks and can alleviate illnesses such as [00:01:37] depression, attention deficit disorders, and Alzheimer's. [00:01:41] And whereas Parks and Recreation encourages physical activities by providing space for [00:01:46] popular sports, hiking trails, swimming pools, and many other activities designed to promote [00:01:51] active lifestyles. [00:01:53] And whereas our Parks and Recreation and Natural Recreation areas ensure the ecological beauty [00:01:59] of our community and provide a place for children and adults to connect with nature and recreate [00:02:04] outdoors. [00:02:06] And whereas to celebrate Parks and Recreation Month, the City of New Port Richey and the [00:02:10] Recreation Department will be hosting several events including Popsicles in the Park, Member [00:02:16] Appreciation Day, Hot Dog Heroes, Parks and Recreation Professionals Day, and a Hot Dog [00:02:22] Eating Contest. [00:02:23] Now, therefore, I, Rob Marlow, Mayor of the City of New Port Richey, do hereby proclaim [00:02:28] the month of July as Parks and Recreation Month in the City of New Port Richey and encourage [00:02:32] all citizens to equate themselves with the various parks and recreation facilities and [00:02:37] what they have to offer. [00:02:38] There you go. [00:02:39] Thank you, Mayor. [00:02:40] I think he wants to get a picture of the two of us together. [00:02:46] Would you like to say a few words? [00:02:51] I would. [00:02:52] I'll keep it short. [00:02:55] Again, thank you, Mayor and Honorable Council Members. [00:03:00] Parks and Recreation Month is about awareness and advocacy for the profession and services [00:03:05] provided. [00:03:06] This year's tagline is Rise Up for Parks and Recreation. [00:03:11] For building strong communities, vibrant and resilient communities through the power of [00:03:14] parks and recreation, we strive to do that every day in serving the community, and we [00:03:19] couldn't do it without your ongoing support. [00:03:21] So thank you. [00:03:22] Thank you. [00:03:23] Much appreciated.
