The project is estimated to cost just over $1.45 million. Outside will be a patio with tables overlooking the river. The indoor layout includes a large multi-purpose room with indoor seating, storage space for outdoor equipment and nine bathroom stalls. In other business, the park commissioners voted to accept the final conceptual design and cost estimate of the future Nelson Family Pavilion at Voyageur Park. Hansen said they’re taking the nearby condos into consideration when planning where to station the three music stages and the type of music that will perform on each.Īpproval recommended for future pavilion layout “I want them to think, ‘I could be a design engineer,’ or CAD engineer or other skill profession,” she said. She said she would invite architectural and engineering firms to be involved and give kids the chance to work with robots or be pit-crew members for the drone team. “The idea was that our youth are going to be the generation that takes care of us, hopefully, and I want them to be inspired when they come to the festival,” Paradiso-Hansen said. “It will have something for everybody,” she said.īeside the usual bouncy houses and balloon animals, it will have opportunities for kids to learn about science, design, engineering, and other fields. She said the festival isn’t just a music festival or a beer festival. Paradiso-Hansen, who is director of Compassionate Home Health Care in Appleton, said the event is their largest fundraiser, and it provides hygiene products to those in need. Kosobucki estimated that between 20,000 and 40,000 people attend the three-day Celebrate De Pere at Voyageur Park, albeit not at one time. He said for somebody who would want to go to the Riverwalk that day, “nothing’s holding them back.”Īround 30,000 people attended the 2022 Rock the Dock at the Green Bay CityDeck, according to organizer Dawn Paradiso-Hansen. “This (Rock the Dock) is a one-day, fast-and-furious music festival, you know, a mini-me of Celebrate De Pere.” “They (Celebrate De Pere) lock the park out to the public for five days,” Kosobucki said. Marty Kosobucki, director of De Pere’s Parks, Recreation and Forestry Department, said it would have less of an impact than the three-day Celebrate De Pere. “There could be a sense of loss,” he said. Park Commissioner Randy Soquet said he could envision some people being put off by Voyageur being closed to the public for an entire day. The event started in 2019 in downtown Green Bay, was held virtually in 2020, and returned to CityDeck the past two years.

Though many of these safety devices can be purchased and installed by parents themselves, Appelbaum said parents should be sure they’re doing it the right way. “There are people who believe that making no holes to a railing by using pressure gates is a smart way of doing it, but that’s actually the worst solution because you can trip on a pressure gate. ![]() However, Appelbaum cautions against using pressure gates on stairways. Installing gates to prevent a child from falling down steps is another important safety measure. “It could be glass or metal or a staircase, or it could be a sink in the bathroom when you take the baby out of the bathtub,” he said. He also suggests installing finger guards on the hinge side of doors throughout the home so children can’t close their fingers in the door, as well as padding any sharp corners on furniture that a baby or unstable walker may come into contact with. This prevents kids from sliding and falling or sticking their heads through the spindles.Īppelbaum said all chemicals in the home should be out of the baby’s reach, adding that most people use child-safety interior latches to lock cabinets rather than moving items within cabinets. “So we install Plexiglas to the railing, which has no holes in it,” he said. “Kids sometimes are upstairs on the railings and they’re holding onto the spindles and they’re shaking them or they try to slide through,” he said, noting that parents often are unaware that spindles may be loose.

Next, prevent furniture tip-overs by using furniture straps, screwing them into the unit and into the wall. ![]() |
