During Current Events, Economic Development Director Steve Prokopek announced that the Desert Foothills Theater (DFT) would be producing "The Sound of Music" in the Sanderson Lincoln Pavilion, starting on November 12th. The play will be shown on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights this week and next week, November 12th, 13th, 14th, 19th, 20th and 21st from 7-10 PM. The tickets were already sold out, but the Town is working with DFT on ways to increase the number that can safely be seated in the amphitheater, using Carefree's Covid 19 guidelines, so additional tickets might be released. The Town is excited to have DFT there. They are good members of the community and this is a great community event.

During Agenda Item #11, Mr. Prokopek said that due to the darkness behind the stage, the need to change the backdrop, and the fact that there are children in the cast, DFT has requested a street closure (shown in green on the slide) for safety reasons during the set-ups and the performances, lasting from 5-10:30 PM. Signage would be placed for the Farmers Market and for impacted businesses. Mr. Prokopek did not anticipate a tremendous amount of traffic after 5 PM.
