C one discussion and possible recommendation to common counsel regarding RAVEYPA's special event application.

This would be from August 6th through August 9th at the Green County Fairgrounds.

And in front of you is their application for it.

And then they are here if you guys do have questions regarding the event and um how they're gonna operate it.

And I I don't have and everything I've seen looks fine.

Looks fine to me.

But just if you want to just we actually pronounce it Ravy Paw, um just like it looks on there, and it is a an event that is takes um some sober young people.

WIPAWA is an event that is actually a group of young people and AA alcoholics anonymous, and that these um events happen all over the world.

And um part of my group here, um all of us have uh gotten together and wanted to put this together and have uh uh rave, which is not just a rave, it's a lot of other things, which um is more of a um part of our recovery, but we like to have fun too.

And uh so it will have uh music and dancing.

Um it'll also have um some really fun stuff for the kids, including baby pools and um uh all kinds of uh food and uh we'll actually have some uh panels where we bring people with the share their experience, strength, and hope with um of their recovery.

And uh and then we have a couple of our main speakers like on Friday night and Saturday night and Sunday morning, sort of as a traditional format that's used within the WIPA and regular AA um events that they have with conventions and that type of thing.

Okay, great.

You're welcome.

Did you have any questions?

We've advertised um all over the place.

We've advertised, yeah.

We got people coming from all over the country, and um I don't know if we got anybody from out of the country that are coming or not, but um I think it's mainly in the United States.

Uh but lots of the most people will be from the Madison, Milwaukee area, and we um have advertised at a lot of the clubhouses and and advertised online.

Um not really an advertisement, it's more of a promotional type thing.

I looked at your layout and it looks very nice with things for everybody.
