Meeting Minutes
AR-2020-5119 Founders Day Celebration
Founders Day ProclamationAttachments:
Upon review, the Board discovered that the 125th anniversary of Founders Day was held November
17, 1990, honoring 1865, the year Dr. John Milton Hawks purchased a Spanish Land Grant that
became Hawks Park. Rather than founding, the year 2021 is the 150th anniversary of Hawks Park
being settled in 1871.
In lieu of Founders Day, a revised event, "Hawks Park Anniversary", was proposed to celebrate
Edgewater's history. Ideas included joining the November Chili event with historical characters, a
video history loop with old images and facts, and possibly a reenactment that could be filmed for
future uses.
