Subject: Status report regarding 2005 District Open House

The District staff has been working on the final details for the 2005 Open House. There are twenty related organizations and providers of services that have confirmed their participation in this year’s event. They are:

A&B Sprinklers	American Red Cross
American Medical Response	Bureau of Land Management
Carmel Marina Corporation	Carmel Area Wastewater District
Community Hospital of Monterey Peninsula.	CalStar
PG&E	Del Monte Forest Foundation
Del Monte Forest Property Owners	First Alarm
MoCoSheriff / Safe Kids Coalition	Monterey Fire Extinguisher
Monterey Regional Waste Management	Morrill & Forbes Chimney Sweep
Open Space Advisory Committee	Pebble Beach Company
Pebble Beach Riding & Trails Assoc.	Sentry Alarms

All of the above organizations have participated in the past, except for Cal Star emergency air ambulance, which is a first-time participant. In addition to these organizations, Fire Department staff will be conducting station tours and will have apparatus and equipment on display. Staff will be conducting Fire Extinguisher training for residents. The Maintenance staff is planning on a static display of their equipment and facilities that have been improved over the past year. Engineering will also provide displays of the current capital improvement projects being constructed within the Forest.

We are making some adjustments to the physical layout, which we are hoping will create some additional parking spaces as well as contribute to a smoother flow of traffic.

The Pebble Beach Company has agreed to provide a barbeque at nominal costs to the District that is consistent with menus of previous years.

We anticipate another successful event with the dedication and support that all of the District staff directors have shown in preparation of our Open House.
