Tammy Dittenber shared with the commission her idea of an event for Caldwell that
is in conjunction with a nationwide effort called "Picnic on the Porch". It brings music
outdoors and usually held the last Saturday in August. Ms, Dittenber expressed her
desire to hold this event "Picnic on the Porch" with residences of the Historic District.
The residents would lend their porch for 2 or 3 hours in the afternoon and have 2 or 3
little groups, bands or duets that would play on the porch in sets so the public can
come down and stroll the Historic District, walking place to place hearing the music.
She wanted to talk with the commission and staff for any code issues and to confirm
commission approved of this event. Ms. Dittenber stated that she would come back
once she has all the details to share with the commission. Ms. Dittenber stated that
August 25, 2018 is the event date. The commission thought it was a wonderful idea.
