Mrs. Lanzaasid the landscaping around the Clearwater Sun
looks bad. Mr. Bickerstaffc suggested we look at it and take a

'Mrs. Whitney reported on holiday decorations. She called
t~~Ait Departments at both Clearwater and Countrysid~ High
S~hools. Clearwater never returned her calls. CountrY8~de"Art
Department ,has already made a commitment for a Christmas project'
for 1986, but the next year would be available. She recommends
,that'we engage them for a project for Christmas 1987. Since the
,'e~erg~'crisis she feels there is no enthusiasm to make the
~ati8ewai look beautiful. She ~aid holiday decorations are
'1 .~x~ensive,but th~ught' there might b~' a five-year plan whereby
~ach year,some ~ecorationsco.uld be purchased. Discussio.n
f~llowed and M~s:. Whitney made a motion to work toward the scroll
,effect of Christmas trees on the Causeway and to speak to
